I normally don`t like huge structures in the middle of beautiful nature. But I must admit that this is a beautiful bridge. We drove back and forth an extra time. Wonderful arcitecture

Extremely long and curved bridge in a very beautiful landscape. High above the sea but no possibilities to look if driving safely. Nice parking areas in both ends.
