Über diesen Ort: Nagoya Chinkabashi-Brücke
Die überflutbare Brücke Nagoya überspannt den Niyodo-Fluss. Ohne Geländer gebaut, damit steigende Fluten sie nicht fortspülen, kontrastiert sie mit dem reinen Niyodo zu einer ikonischen „ursprüngliches Japan'-Szene.
Highlights
- 191 m long with no railings — the simple form unique to submersible bridges, with functional beauty hidden in their flood-tolerant design
- Niyodo Blue — the transparent waters of Japan's «last clear river,» with emerald-green visible looking down from the bridge
- Shared with cars and bicycles — still active as a local road, with everyday life lending the frame its charm
- Four seasons from fresh greens to autumn colors — May's new growth, summer river play (July–August), October–November foliage, winter morning mist
- A network of submersible bridges — the Niyodo carries 48 chinkabashi; consider combining Sagawa, Renkon, or Ogawa Submersible Bridges
