Seto-Ohashi Bridge
The Seto-Ohashi Bridge over the Seto Inland Sea connects the mainland and Shikoku. It is made up of six bridges and the one furthest north is the Shimotsui-Seto Bridge. The best choice to enjoy the Seto-Ohashi Bridge is no doubt Washū-zan, which is a 133 meter high resort in Inland Sea National Park. The entire Seto-Ohashi Bridge and the islands around Seto Inland Sea can be viewed from the observatory. Also, there is the Seto-Ohashi Bridge Memorial Park in Kurashiki-shi connected to the great bridge, which is a museum to mark the opening day. It shows the model of Seto-Ohashi Bridge at a scale of 1:500 and also contains models of other famous bridges in the world.
