Kintaikyo, Iwakuni , Japan. The original Kintai Bridge was built in 1673 and didn’t stand very long until it was damaged due to flooding. It was then rebuilt and survived for more than 200 years until a typhoon battered it to death in 1950. The bridge that stands now over the Nishiki River is the 3rd build and looks magnificent, its 5 wooden arches displaying an incredible amount of detail and craftsmanship. Interesting fact: no nails or bolts have been used to build the arches, only clamps and wires.

Henderson Waves Singapore’s highest pedestrian bridge found at the southern ridges, a beautiful 9km stretch of gardens and parks . The bridge itself is absolutely stunning. The deck is made from thousands of Balau wood slates, perfectly cut and arranged, and along the length of the deck a huge snaking, undulating shell cleverly forms sheltered seating
areas on every upward curve.
