Kurushim-Kaikyo Bridge connects Hiroshima Prefecture to Ehime Prefecture, thus connecting the main island Honshu to Shikoku by road. Finished in 1999, it is a the world's longest suspension bridge measuring 4,015 meters (13,173 ft). Near the Imabari side there is a park with various trails and a info center, and it's one of the top sightseeing spots in Ehime.

It's almost impossible to see, but there was someone hang gliding over the bridge! It looked like it would be scary but amazing
