The picturesque bridge in Moscow is one of the most beautiful bridges in Russia and the highest cable-stayed bridge in Europe. It is a miracle of engineering. This bridge is called the bridge a "flying saucer REGISTRY-restaurant".1.5 km in length (almost a kilometer of the route passes completely over the Moscow River), 40 meters wide, 105 meters high (arch height). And the length of the main span is more than 400 meters.

Tower Bridge (built 1886–1894) is a combined bascule and suspension bridge in London, England which crosses the River Thames. It is close to the Tower of London, from which it takes its name, and has become an iconic symbol of London.
The bridge consists of two bridge towers tied together at the upper level by two horizontal walkways, designed to withstand the horizontal forces exerted by the suspended sections of the bridge on the landward sides of the towers. The vertical components of the forces in the suspended sections and the vertical reactions of the two walkways are carried by the two robust towers. The bascule pivots and operating machinery are housed in the base of each tower. The bridge's present colour scheme dates from 1977, when it was painted red, white and blue for Queen Elizabeth II's Silver Jubilee. Originally it was painted a mid greenish-blue colour. (Wikipedia)

is a road bridge spanning the River Liffey in Dublin, Ireland, joining the south quays to Blackhall Place on the north side. Designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava, it is a single-span structural steel design, 40 m (131 ft) long, with the deck supported from two outward angled arches.[2]
It's been a year since I last uploaded but I feel like now is the time to start getting back intosomewhat regular uploads!
This was taken in Vancouver, British Columbia whilst on holiday last year and is one of my favourite shots from the trip.

Yesterday, we had a terrific day of hiking in eastern Dartmoor. On our way back home I simply had to stop to take a photo of this wonderful granite bridge spanning the River Dart. I might have annoyed one or the other driver by parking my car after the bridge in a bend - really sorry about this, but I could not resist! Holne Bridge is from medieval times, has been built in 1413. I like how the bubbles in the river creates those white lines in the long exposure.
#I got the wrong bridge initially, this is not Newbridge but Holne Bridge, a bit further downstream - thanks for letting me know @Rob Dando!
This mortarless stone arch bridge located near the Quabbin Reservoir was built in 1866. It's the only stone bridge that I can think of in Massachusetts (that I've seen).
TOWER BRIDGE – this London icon spans both the River Thames and the ages. Completed in 1894 the bridge ushers 40,000 vehicles safely across the river, daily. An engineering wonder, the bridge required 400 workers and 8 years of construction to complete. The sight of the Gothic towers rising above the skyline is a must-see. The bridge was designed to be architecturally sympathetic with the nearby Tower of London.

Construction on the bridge, the second to cross this river, began in 1896, with Leffert L. Buck as chief engineer, Henry Hornbostel as architect and Holton D. Robinson as assistant engineer, and the bridge opened on December 19, 1903 . At the time it was constructed, the Williamsburg Bridge set the record for the longest suspension bridge span on Earth. The record fell in 1924, when the Bear Mountain Bridge was completed.
La construcción del puente, el segundo en cruzar el río Este, se inició en 1896 por el ingeniero Leffert L. Buck, Henry Hornbostel como arquitecto y Holton D. Robinson como ingeniero asistente, siendo inaugurado el 19 de diciembre de 1903. En el momento en que fue construido, el puente de Williamsburg estableció el récord como el puente colgante más largo en la Tierra. Su récord no le duró mucho, ya que en 1924 se inauguró el Puente Bear Mountain.
Crimean bridge - suspension bridge in Moscow, passes across the Moscow River. The bridge was built during Stalin's reconstruction of the city and is open May 1, 1938 the length of the span of the river - 168 meters. The bridge has a span 3; its total length - 688 m, width 38.5 m.
From April to December 2001, work on the general reconstruction of the Crimean Bridge. During this time, builders repave the sidewalks and the roadway of the bridge. Prefabricated slabs of pavement have been replaced by a monolith. In addition, the waterproofing of the bridge, carried out anti-corrosion treatment of metal structures has been updated. It replaced as 5500 square meters of granite cladding.
The Ha'penny Bridge (Irish: Droichead na Leathphingine, or Droichead na Life), known later for a time as the Penny Ha'penny Bridge, and officially the Liffey Bridge, is a pedestrian bridge built in May 1816 over the River Liffey in Dublin, Ireland. Made of cast iron, the bridge was cast in Shropshire, England. Originally called the Wellington Bridge (after the Dublin-born Duke of Wellington), the name of the bridge changed to Liffey Bridge. The Liffey Bridge (Irish: Droichead na Life)[1] remains the bridge's official name to this day, although it is most commonly referred to as the Ha'penny Bridge.
Die Ha’penny Bridge (oder Half Penny Bridge, offiziell Liffey Bridge) ist eine 43 m lange, knapp 3,7 m breite Fußgängerbrücke aus dem Jahr 1816, die im Zentrum der irischen Hauptstadt Dublin den Fluss Liffey überspannt und dabei den Stadtteil Temple Bar mit dem Bachelor´s Walk verbindet. Ihren volkstümlichen Namen erhielt sie aufgrund der früher zu entrichtenden Fußgängermaut; die offizielle, aber im Alltag kaum verwendete Bezeichnung lautet Liffey Bridge. Die Brücke ist eine der meistfotografierten Sehenswürdigkeiten Dublins und gilt vielfach als das Wahrzeichen der Stadt.
