Monkey Bridge

Because Kakegawa River changes it water level so often, it cannot have the leg to support the bridge, so this bridge used multi layers to support the weight.
This structure was used since 7th century. The name and idea of the structure were taken from that when monkeys try to reach the other side of the bridge, they built towers by themselves and reached to the other side.
