The Suwakyo Bridge, a striking steel cable-stayed bridge, marks the entrance to Minakami town and offers scenic views of the Tone River and surrounding mountains. Located in Minakami, Gunma Prefecture, it's accessible by a 20-minute bus ride from Minakami Station. Completed in 1994, the bridge features a pedestrian walkway, allowing visitors to enjoy the natural beauty of the valley and the stunning views of Mount Tanigawa. For thrill-seekers, a bungee jumping facility operates from the bridge, offering a 42-meter plunge. Nearby, the Michi-no-Eki Minakami Kijyokukan provides a convenient spot to park and explore the area. The best time to visit is during the autumn foliage season for vibrant scenery.
