- Ondo Ohashi Bridge
- Travel / Tourism
- Hiroshima Pref. Kureshi Ondochouiwashihama
- "This highway bridge connects Kurahashi Island to Kure City, Hiroshima Prefecture on the mainland. Its red arches recall the large vermilion torii gate at Itsukushima Shrine. The roads that lead to the bridge spiral up to it, leaving room for large boats to pass beneath. In order to cope with an increase in traffic, they made the ""Second Ondo Ohashi Bridge"" about 350 meters away in 2013. This is also a red Nielsen Lohse arch bridge, but it lacks the spiraling roads. "

- Tatara-ohashi Bridge
- Travel / Tourism
- Setoda Town, Onomichi, Hiroshima Prefecture
- Tatara-ohashi Bridge diagonally connects Ikuchi-jima Island in Onomichi City, Hiroshima Prefecture with Omishima Island in Imabari City, Ehime Prefecture. The bridge is the fourth bridge along Shimanami Kaido Expressway, from Honshu and has a beautiful shape like that of a swan spreading its wings over the sea. Tatara-ohashi Bridge is notable for its additional cycling and pedestrian lanes as well as the road exclusively for cars and trucks. If you clap your hands or the wooden blocks at the bottom of the bridge support you can experience the echoing reverberations, known as nakiryu (roaring dragon), as the sound travels up the supports.

- Ikuchi Bridge
- Travel / Tourism
- Hiroshima Onomichi-shi Innoshima
- This bridge is one of the seven on the Nishiseto Expressway connecting various islands on the Seto Inland Sea. The third bridge from the Onomichi side, it is 790-meters-long and connects Ikuchi Island and Innoshima Island. The longest cable-stayed bridge in the world at the time of its completion in 1991, it was also the first in Japan to make use of hybrid composite beam construction. The composite bronze and concrete beam technology invented for the bridge was also later used in the Tatara Bridge, which was also the longest cable-stayed bridge in the world at the time of its completion, aiding in the opening of the Nishiseto Expressway. Ikuchi Bridge Memorial Park is maintained at one side of the bridge, and from here visitors can look up at the bridge’s majestic structure.

Hiroshima Areas
There is more than meets the eye awaiting any Hiroshima-bound traveler. Kicking off in Hiroshima city, the Peace Memorial Park, Hiroshima Castle, and Shukkeien Garden offer a couple of days of exploring; however, the real beauty lies along the southern coast of the prefecture. There, a series of islands spreads across the Seto Inland Sea: from the mysterious sea-submerged Great Torii Gate at Miyajima Island to the first half of the islands that connect Honshu to Shikoku via six spectacular suspension bridges.
