Our five most famous bridges for a time in life match the most photographed bridges, especially for being in some of most visited tourist cities in the world. But besides being well placed, are stunning, architectural and engineering feats, which alone deserve the admiration and of course, a good personal photo smiling before them:
Ponte Vecchio: in our language, Old Bridge, is one of the places that every tourist who boasts must walk to visit Florence. Medieval jewel on the river Arno, is crowded with shops (mainly jewelers) that by all accounts, fell in the area for centuries to be tax exempt. Today is a romantic place and portrayed a thousand times, just not quiet: It is usually crowded with tourists.
Brooklyn Bridge: a jewel of New York. Built in the late nineteenth century, linking the boroughs of Brooklyn with Manhattan. Was once the largest suspension bridge in the world. Its neo-Gothic style and its role in any post in the city, make a pedestrian walking on their walk are unavoidable when visiting the Big Apple.
Tower Bridge: Tower Bridge, is the emblem of the Thames across from the city of London. The design of the drawbridge, with its Victorian Gothic style, with two towers of 65 meters high, was finalized in late nineteenth century, and of course, has starred in countless postcards, films and even TV series.
Golden Gate Bridge, perhaps the quintessential symbol of the famous bridges, the Golden Gate goes out of pretentious ornamentation of the above, to become an engineering feat without much ostentation to its size and elegance. Without a doubt, is the bridge that once crossed we would wish in life, among other things, to enjoy unparalleled views of San Francisco.
Millau Viaduct: jump almost a century to face the test of applied knowledge that can overcome new challenges that still seem impossible. The Viaduct, located in Aveyron, France, reaches a height of 342 meters is the highest in the world and was opened in 2004.
