Kizunonagare Bridge, Kozuya Bridge

Kozuya Bridge, which connects Yawata City to the town of Kumiyama, is 356.5 meters long, the longest wooden bridge in Japan. This bridge is not fastened at the bottom. Instead, it is known as the “Nagare Bashi” (flowing bridge), because its foot planks come away when the water level in the river rises. The girders are divided into eight parts connected by wire.
