Photos of Akashi-Kaikyo Bridge

The Akashi Kaikyo Bridge is currently the largest bridge and suspension bridge in the world with a number of world records. It connects Kobe and Awaji Island in Japan and crosses the Akashi Strait. The bridge body is light blue. It was Kato Toben who strongly urged the Japanese government to build a bridge between Kobe and the four islands of Japan, in order to avoid a tragedy similar to the "Ziyun Maru" in the future. Akashi Kaikyo Bridge has the third tallest bridge tower in the world, higher than the Yokohama Landmark Building (295.8 meters), the tallest building in Japan.
