The bridge of glasses

Western-style Mie-bashi, a masonry method, on the lower Nagao River at Takiguchi, Shirahama. Because there are three arches, it is not really glasses, but it has come to be called a glasses bridge from the appearance of moving to the river. The bridge was built in Meiji 21 (1888) with a donation of 399 yen and 40 yen from the villagers. He said he had walked across the river before the construction. It is a sturdy bridge that, in wartime, tanks passed through it without being broken by the Great Kanto Earthquake. Repair work was carried out in 1977 and 1993, and the figure remains at the time of construction. Prefectural Designated Tangible Cultural Property. Japan's Meihashi Hyakusyo.
