When Parking Lots Become Tourist Attractions

Can’t find a parking spot?  Try looking in Tokyo.  Space is at such a premium that they’ve created a floating parking lot.  The creation, called Umihotaru is actually a tourist attraction. 

Umihotaru also connects to the world’s longest underwater tunnel which connects Kawasaki and Kisarazu. 

Check it out on Google Maps.

Cars can either drive over the 4.4km bridge to the island and park in order to admire the view or drive straight through to the tunnel entrance where they will be taken under the water for 9.5km until they reach kawasaki. (deputy-dog)
