8. Ponte Eshima Ohashi, Japan

The Eshima Ohashi Bridge, joining Matsue and Sakaiminato, is famous for its outrageous slope. Through a telephoto lens, it looks like a rollercoaster launching into the sky. In truth, the incline is a manageable 6.1%, but the illusion is so convincing it has become an internet sensation—a thrill for travelers who want the photo without the real risk.
