Scenic Bridges of Hiroshima

Hiroshima's Seto Inland Sea is characterized by islands connected by diverse architectural structures. This list highlights key bridges along the Akinada Tobishima Kaido and surrounding areas, including truss, arch, and cable-stayed designs. These spans, such as the Kamagari and Okamura bridges, cross tidal straits to link remote island communities and provide essential transit between Hiroshima and Ehime prefectures.
