Kunimi Bridge is a large concrete arch in the Takachiho Gorge region of Miyazaki Prefecture. The 320 meter long structure has a main arch span of 181 meters with a width of 9.25 meters.

There is no other region in Japan that has as many high bridges than the Takachiho Gorge Scenic Area of Miyazaki Prefecture. Within a distance of just 30 kilometers the Gokase and Iwato River canyons are crossed by no less than 15 high bridges.

Several of these spectacular crossings were the highest in Japan including Tensho, Seiun and Unkai Bridges. The Takachiho Railway Bridge is still the highest railway crossing in Japan even if it not longer operates with regular trains.
