Meganebashi of Isahaya (諫早の眼鏡橋)
First, we were visited to Meganebashi at Isahaya Park.
Summary
Meganebashi or "Spectacles Bridge" (眼鏡橋)is a double arch stone bridge
spanning a pond in the park. The bridge is twice the size of the famous "Spectacles Bridge" in
Nagasaki city. The bridge was originally built over the Honmyo
river in 1839. After the flood of 1957, it was relocated to the park. Every
year on the anniversary of the flood, the city of Isahaya has a festival at the
original location of the bridge. It was designated as an Important Cultural Asset
in 1958.
