11 bold bridges that do more than connect two different places

Linking two distinct places may seem like a simple task for lay people, but it requires careful study by professionals who specialize in devising pharaonic structures. However, some engineering projects go far beyond the functional needs of approaching two points separated by geological barriers.

Combining need and creativity, several bridges can be considered true works of construction art; after all, instead of just passing cars or pedestrians, they have become postcards in some parts of the world. The following are the cities that host these bold projects:

1. Changsha, China

2. Millau, in France

3. Meghalaya, India

4. Seoul, South Korea

5. Sichuan, China

6. CaƱon City, in the United States

7. Sheharah, Yemen

8. Ronda, in Spain

9. Ballintoy, Northern Ireland

10. Halsteren, in the Netherlands
