Very similar in size and length to the Burro Creek bridge in the U.S. state of Arizona, the Okuaso truss arch carries a 2-lane road across a deep gorge in Japan’s southern prefecture of Kumamoto. Just to the south is the Takachiho Gorge with the largest collection of high bridges in Japan.


奥阿蘇大橋はサイズと長さがアメリカのアリゾナ州にあるブロークリーク・ブリッジにとてもよく似ています。両車線道路があるこの橋は、南日本の熊本県の深い峡谷に架けられています。
