The Great Seto Bridge

Por kirai el 14 de September de 2009 en Architecture

The Great Seto Bridge connects the main island of Japan, called Honshu, with the fourth biggest island in the archipielago, called Shikoku. Being a little bit over 13 km long, it is the longest two-tiered bridge in the world, a record that belonged during many years to the Golden Gate bridge in San Francisco.

This great picture was taken by Chris Willson at 5:00 a.m from the Honshu side of the bridge right where it begins.
