"Nationally Designated Important Cultural Property Saikai Bridge" It is a red bridge that connects Inoura Township, Seihi Town, Saikai City, Nagasaki Prefecture, and Hario Higashi Town, Sasebo City. The Saikai Bridge was built in October 1955 (Showa 30) to connect Sasebo City and the Nishisonogi Peninsula (Saikai City) to Inoura Seto, one of Japan's three major rapid tides. It is 316 m long and 42 m above sea level. At that time, the Saikai Bridge was the third largest bridge of this type in the world and the largest bridge in the East. It took four years from the start of construction and was completed using the best technology in Japan. Since whirlpools of up to 10 m in diameter occur at Inoura Seto, it was not possible to erect support pillars in the sea during construction, so the "sirder-type lifting method" was used, in which the pillars were protruded from both shores by precision operation, assembled, and finally closed at the center. 2020 (Reiwa 2) designated as a National Important Cultural Property on December 23, the first bridge built after the war. "Saikai Bridge Park" It is a tourist park with an area of 37 ha around the Saikai Bridge. Athletic and sledding slopes are also available, making it a popular park for Families.
