    Gunma Pref. Annakashi Matsuidamachisakamoto In the ground
    This railway bridge in Matsuida Town, Annaka City, Gunma Prefecture is commonly known as “Spectacles Bridge.” Completed in 1892, this four-arch bridge is 91 meters across and 31 meters tall, and upheld the Abt-system railway until the line closed in 1963. It is now a national Important Cultural Property, and you can enjoy walking along the “Abt-no-michi” —a road that follows the old rail line.

    長野からの帰路数十年ぶりに国道18号旧道を下ってみました。10月末の平日で紅葉の見頃でしたが下りの車は少なかったです。途中めがね橋に立ち寄ってみました。駐車場から道路沿いを歩いて4分ほどで正面に三連のめがね橋が現れます。散策遊歩道となった信越線廃線跡のめがね橋上を歩いて散策する人の姿も見えました。信越線に乗車した昔が少し蘇りました。

It boasts a bigger scale than most pedestrian suspension bridges in the country, at 225 meters long and 90 meters tall. You can walk almost as if in air and gaze at the grand mountain scenery. From April to November, soap bubbles are blown every half hour.
