You can walk under the Naruto Bridge and see the whirlpools that are made at high and low tideThe road above was quite noisy with traffic. Down below was a lot quieterHeading down the track to start the walk under the bridgeA few quick snaps along the wayThe walking map of the surrounding area. Lots to do and seeGlad the fencing was here to stop me diving inAnyone worried at this stage?Really great walkway here. Didn't feel like I was walking under a bridgeLooking down was a bit unnerving at times, particularly when there was only a piece of glass between you and the oceanNice effect of putting the map on top of the glass panelA wider view of the sea and a few eddiesThe whirlpools were not at full strength the day I visited, but it was still interesting to seeLooking around the bayQuite a few other people under the bridge taking a look at the whirlpoolsPlenty of chance for a lookoutLots of little inlets and islands dotted about the placeThe under structure of the bridge
Some places to buy souvenirs and eatA more relaxing view of the bridgeVery peacefulThe colors in the bay were very boldLookout point with souvenir shopsWakame Udon at Naruto BridgeLunch with a viewNice to sit and watch the ships go by under the bridgeThe souvenir shops and restaurants had some of the best viewsAfter walking under the bridge, the next stop was to go to the top of the hill and look out from aboveIt took ages to go up this escalator and it was very hotTaking a look from a much higher vantage pointThe view out across the highway and Otsuka Intl Museum grounds on the leftA very blue dayJust a couple of others around taking photos, watching the boats go byTime to go back down again
I saw a Naruto episode where a bridge was called “Naruto” is this the same bridge? or it was just a coincidence? just curious though…
I’m currently fascinated about things related to “Japan” thus I stumbled upon this site, I also found a good Japan site here: http://www.tokyojapanlife.com/ .. just wanted to share it!

Wow, I like Japan bridges. Beautifully designed and the view is always amazing! Hope the meal was “Oishikatta!”
