A new 220-meter pedestrian suspension bridge, named Skybridge, has been constructed at Biwako Valley in Otsu, Shiga Prefecture. The bridge connects mountains within the resort, situated about 1,100 meters above sea level, and provides visitors with panoramic views of Lake Biwa. Although visibility was reduced due to fog on August 22, clear weather offers visitors the opportunity to see across Lake Biwa while experiencing the thrill of crossing the suspension bridge surrounded by sky, mountains, and Japan's largest lake.
The bridge is already open for visitors to cross, with its grand opening scheduled for September 14 following a pre-opening period.
