Oku-Iya Double Vine Bridges

Deep beyond the Iya-no-Kazurabashi Vine Bridge in Oboke Gorge, one of Japan’s most remote regions, lie the Oku-Iya Double Vine Bridges. Located at an elevation of about 1,000 meters (3,280 feet), these two suspension bridges are made from hardy vines such as shirakuchi-kazura. The two bridges are known as the Male Bridge and Female Bridge, earning them the nickname “Wedded Bridges.”
