Constructed to bypass an earlier arch from 1965, the Shianzaka Bridge is a steel box beam arch bridge with a deck 377 feet (115 meters) above a forested river ravine near Shimohei, Iwate prefecture. The original Makisawa arch was Japan's highest bridge when it was completed in 1965 with a deck 344 feet (105 meters) high or 33 feet (10 meters) lower than the newer Shianzaka bridge.
