22 Heart-Stopping Bridges You Should Avoid at All Costs

6. Ponte Iya Kazurabashi, Japan

Deep in the Iya Valley, the Kazurabashi Bridge is woven entirely from mountain vines, echoing the ancient traditions of rural Japan. Crossing this bridge is a journey into the past, as creaking vines and swaying planks remind you of its fragile nature. For added security, steel cables are intertwined with the vines every three years, but the crossing remains an exhilarating and slightly unnerving experience, especially when you peer through the gaps at the river rushing far below.
