Hakucho Ohashi Bridge
Eastern Japan's largest, a swan bridge illuminated by wind power
Eastern Japan's largest suspension bridge spanning 1,380 meters over Muroran Port, a famous bridge characterized by wind-powered lighting.
Characterized by an elegant form like a swan spreading its wings, two white main towers extending straight from the sea surface to the sky exude an overwhelming presence. During the day, against the blue sky backdrop, countless wires suspended from the main cables draw beautiful curves, and a landscape where Muroran Port's industrial zone and nature harmonize spreads out. Around the bridge, the scent of the tide drifts, sea breezes blow through, and seagulls' cries echo. Viewed from a distance, the figure like a swan gracefully flapping its wings stands out against the sea, and its beauty captivates the eye.
At night, LED lights powered by wind generation illuminate the entire main cable, and the two main towers also shine brightly with LED floodlights. The light stretching for the entire 1,380 meters is fantastic like a swan floating in the dark night. The environmentally conscious lighting system using wind power symbolizes Muroran's progressiveness as an industrial city. This is Muroran's symbol where you can enjoy both the dynamic appearance during the day and the fantastic glow at night.
