The Kaisen Bridge, located in Monju, Miyazu, Kyoto, Japan, can rotate 90 degrees to form a full circle, allowing ships to pass through the waterway and reach the land. This unique bridge was originally constructed by hand in 1923, and in 1960, it was electrified to accommodate the increasing number of vessels. Anyone visiting the area should make an effort to witness this remarkable spectacle. Not only is it a captivating sight, but it also offers visitors an up-close experience of the ocean, allowing them to truly appreciate the beauty of the Amanohashidate land bridge.
