Hallo Cesare, yes I knew this name for the Bridge, today it is secured with high fences, however it still looks incredible high and fragile, from above and from below. It was facinating me already for while, therefore I also draw a picture how it looked passing under it at a summer evening. I will add it today to the Gallery.

Hi Holger, we have a very high bridge like this one that crosses the American River. It is 720 feet tall an has also had many suicide jumpers. They have raised the railings significantly but some still manage to climb over. Your bridge has a very graceful arch.
