One of Japan's medium sized footbridge spans, the Kinutateiwa crossing has become a popular tourist attraction in the city of Nikko. The 140 meter main span is supported by simple steel towers with an Andrews cross brace similar to the Akashi-Kaikyo Bridge. The tourist trail leads guests through a tunnel and up to an overlook with spectacular views of the Kinugawa River canyon.
