Europe's £8.6m bridge allows tourists to visit three countries in a day
1.
Europe's Three Countries Bridge, an award-winning bridge that cost around £86 million to construct, enables tourists to visit three countries in a day.
According to the Daily Express, the bridge, which is the world's longest single-span bridge, crosses the Rhine river between France's Huningue and Germany's Weil am Rhein.
It features no central supports in the water and stands as a testament to modern engineering and design, dedicated solely for the use of pedestrians and cyclists.
The bridge is the brainchild of visionary Franco-Austrian architect Dietmar Feichtinger and was inaugurated in 2007.
Travel enthusiasts who have ventured across this bridge have shared their awe-inspiring experiences online.
One visitor commented: "Great opportunity to walk to Germany, France and Switzerland in one day."
One traveller remarked: "The bridge itself is amazing. That such a large and expensive bridge was built solely for pedestrians and bicycles is enlightening."
They continued, highlighting the contrast between the sides: "The German side is very industrial, being a large port area. There is a very large, multicultural area that is bedecked with colour."
