Megane Bridge - Meganebashi or Spectacles Bridge, over the Nakashima River was built in Nagasaki in 1634. Said to be the oldest stone arch bridge in Japan and has been designated as an Important Cultural Property of Japan. It received the nickname "Spectacles Bridge" because its two arches and their reflection in the water create the image of a pair of spectacles.
