Shinkyo Bridge
A rain storm at the Shinkyo, or Sacred Bridge, crossing the Daiya River in Nikko, Japan. The first bridge was built in 808 and has been rebuilt many times, this one from 1904. By 1636 only Shogun, their officials, and priests were allowed to cross, but for 300 yen you can now walk the bridge. This bridge is considered one of the three most beautiful bridges in Japan.
