The world’s longest suspension bridge, connecting Kobe to Awaji Island with breathtaking views of the Akashi Strait.
MK Guide Recommends
One of Japan’s great engineering marvels, the 3,911-meter Akashi Kaikyo Bridge holds the record as the world’s longest suspension bridge, linking Kobe with Awaji Island and onward toward Shikoku. Locals know it as the Pearl Bridge, a name that reflects both its elegance and scale. To truly become acquainted with it, the Bridge World guided tour takes you inside the structure itself, revealing the precision and ambition behind its construction. The nearby Maiko Marine Promenade allows you to walk beneath the bridge and look out across the open sea, a view that may raise the hair on your arms. Whether seen in daylight or illuminated at night, it stands as a feat of human will and one of Kobe’s defining landmarks.
