Kintai Bridge Iwakuni

Imagine this wooden pedestrian bridge in Iwakuni, Japan, is surrounded by blooming cherry trees. Now try to imagine how this bridge was built in 1673 AD without a single nail. At that time the only samurai were allowed people to cross over Kintai bridge. Well, for a small fee, anyone can.
