通潤橋 山都町 Tsujunkyo Bridge

Built in 1854, Tsujunkyo Bridge is Japan's largest stone-arch aqueduct bridge. The bridge has a width of 6.3 m (6.9 yd.) and a length of 75.6 m (83.2 yd.). The arch diameter is 28.2 m (31 yd.), which gives the structure a maximum height of 20.2 m (22.2 yd.) over the Todoroki River in Yamato Town, Kumamoto Prefecture on Kyushu, which is the southern island of Japan. The stone-built bridge, which creates a large and elegant arc through space, is recognized by the Japanese government an Important Cultural Property.
