Tanize Suspension Bridge was built by the villagers in 1954 for daily use during the post-war reconstruction period. Surrounded by majestic mountains, it is one of the longest steel suspension bridges in Japan. The bridge connects Ueno and Tanize and is 297 meters long and 54 meters high.

    I visited the Tanize Suspension Bridge on a bus tour. I've been here once before and crossed the bridge that time, but I skipped it this time! I'm afraid of heights, so I just enjoyed the view without crossing. I'm sure the scenery from the bridge is amazing, but even just looking at it was enough for me!
    By the way, the bridge shakes quite a bit. If you're not scared of heights, definitely give it a try!

  • The wooden planks on the suspension bridge looked old, and the cables seemed rusty. It feels like it hasn't been well maintained for years, which made me a bit nervous.

  • Looking down from the suspension bridge, the height above the riverbed is really impressive. When there are a lot of people, the bridge shakes and feels unstable, which is pretty scary. I don't think I'd want to come back a second time.
