Soaring 44 meters above the brackish waters of Lake Nakaumi, Eshima Ohashi Bridge connects Sakaiminato and Matsue with a rigid-frame design engineered to let large ships pass beneath. When viewed head-on from a distance, its steep gradient appears as an almost vertical wall of asphalt, earning it the worldwide nickname 'Rollercoaster Bridge.' While the drive is smoother than the dramatic illusion suggests, the striking vantage point makes it an iconic destination for photographers and road-trippers alike. Crossing to the bridge's summit rewards travelers with panoramic vistas stretching across the surrounding lake and coastline.
