Step onto the Iya Vine Bridge for a heart-pounding walk across a living piece of history suspended high above the emerald Iya River. These traditional bridges have been used to traverse the valley for centuries, and this remains one of the few authentic structures still in existence. Woven from hardy kudzu vines, the bridge sways with every step, offering a thrilling perspective of the forested gorge. Once you have crossed, be sure to take the short walk down to the riverside; the view from below provides a stunning sense of the bridge’s scale and is the perfect place to enjoy some local snacks from nearby vendors.
