My dream came true! I finally climbed to the top of Great Akashi Strait Bridge! The view from 300 meters above the sea was just wonderful. The weather was fine with a clear blue sky and blue ocean! I was impressed by the views of ships coming and going, and vehicles and people about the size of a pea on the ground.

Although I could stay there only for a short while, the marvelous view was even better than I'd imagined, and I enjoyed those precious moments in the soft breeze high up in the sky.

View of Akashi on the mainland. The wind is soft, and it feels so good.
This is the hatch! The group which came before us are now going back. You can only stay here for twenty minutes.
View of Shikoku and Awaji Islands. The weather was perfect for seeing this scenery.
This is the observation area for tourists. It's 300 meters above the sea, and we are standing on a girder on top of the main tower.
