Located in the remote Iya Valley in Miyoshi, Tokushima Prefecture, the Kazurabashi is a 45-meter suspension bridge woven from mountain vines, hanging about 14 meters above the Iya River. Rebuilt every three years using traditional techniques, it sways with every step, and crossing its widely spaced planks is a thrilling experience.
