What other travelers are saying about Meganebashi Bridge (Spectacles Bridge)
I saw this bridge on an episode of Aboard in Japan about Nagasaki and decided to have a look.
A charming rustic bridge where you are able to see the reflection of the bridge clearly in the water when the weather is good.
There is a path you can take to go down to the bank and walk along the stone paths across the river near the bridge.
The view of the famous "Spectacles Bridge" is best seen from a distance. Unfortunately, it was overcast when we visited. If the weather is clear, you can see the reflection of the blue water better.
Also known as The Spectacles Bridge, it has the double arches. One of several bridges along the river - each beautiful in its own way. Fun to walk down to the path along the bank and cross the stepping stones. Some big Koi fish in the pond before the small weir.
We saw a couple having wedding photos below the bridge - beautiful.
Interesting stone bridge but only when there's reflection when the water is calm.
Be sure to queue up if keen to take individual photo in the middle of the foot path. Plenty of local students crowd
Easy to find from my hotel in China Town via Goggle Maps. It’s the oldest stone bridge of its kind remaining in Japan. On a calm day the reflection from the water gives the appearance of a pair of round spectacles.
