Light up of the Yokohama Bay Bridge

The main tower section of the Yokohama Bay Bridge is lit up with 264 lights, creating an attractive night view of the Yokohama Port. Also, to project the bridge as a citizen's clock, the color of the upper part of the main tower is changed on the hour to notify citizens of the time. Normally, it is lit from sunset to midnight.
