Brooklyn Bridge

Located in New York, the Brooklyn Bridge is one of the world's first suspension bridges. Opened in 1883, the bridge was constructed to solve the intense traffic problem between Brooklyn and Manhattan's financial center. Despite the years, the bridge still serves this function. Watching the skyscrapers of Manhattan Island from the shore just below the bridge also promises a unique experience.

Golden Gate Bridge

This bridge, located in San Francisco, California, is known as "the world's technology and information hub." It is also recognized as one of the most photographed bridges in the world. The view of the bridge across San Francisco Bay, often shrouded in fog, attracts many photographers from both within the country and abroad. You may also be familiar with this bridge from many movies and TV shows.

Khaju Bridge

The Khaju Bridge in Isfahan, Iran, is especially known for its unique reflection on the water. The bridge is also one of the oldest structures in both the country and the region. Today, it attracts numerous tourists from within the country and abroad.

Magdeburg Water Bridge

This bridge in Germany has a very interesting structure unlike any other; it has water flowing through its center with walkways on either side for pedestrians and boats passing through the middle. Built over the Elbe River, its construction took a full six years.

Bosphorus Bridge

The Asian side of the bridge is located in Beylerbeyi, while its European side is in Ortaköy. Before the bridge was built, vehicular transportation was provided between the two sides of the Bosphorus. Like Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge built later, crossing the bridge spanning two continents can be increasingly difficult due to heavy traffic at all hours of the day, but it still enchants with its unique view.
