Iwama Submersible Bridge (Chinkabashi)

Magnificent scenery

Original Text

７ In the end of the month, I visited on a good weather day when it rained. The glittering Shimanto River over the sinking bridge, the mountain 々 surrounding it, and the scene as I imagined were spreading. Unfortunately, I only visited this Iwama subsidence bridge, but I had an experience that I could only do here.

after diving in a canoe

Original Text

I dived down the bridge on a canoe tour. Beyond that was the goal of the tour, so I crossed after going up the river. I was thrilled on foot, but when I crossed the car and looked through the window, I felt even more thrilled.

there's a bench made of a subsidence bridge.

Original Text

The floor surface replaced when repairing the subsidence bridge is placed as a bench in the parking lot. If you look at the bridge that sank when the water rises from another angle, you will be impressed again.

Repair work

Original Text

Unfortunately, as of August 13, repair work was underway and I couldn't get close. However, the good thing about the subsidence bridge is that it can be repaired relatively easily in this way.

Silent Shimanto River

Original Text

I went to the Shimanto River on a solo trip during the New Year holidays. It was my first time, so I don't usually know, but this year it was a warm winter and I didn't need a jacket. I don't mean to say anything, but I was able to spend a quiet time alone.
