虎门大桥 - One of the mammoth achievement in modern architecture, it is both functional and aesthetic. I love bridges, big and small, old or new. Bridges join two regions, two cities, two cultures together. With the bridge, we commune, trade, develop friendship, get married, have family, combining many distinct communities to become one big society. 8 z- @; x2 g) N% X/ n) i J公仔箱論壇虎门大桥 is a special kind of bridge, its part steel cable suspension, and part span. The cable suspension forms a straight line joining the mainland on one side to an island on the other, it provides enough clearance for shipping to sail beneath it; the span construction is slightly curved connecting the island to the other side of the mainland. 7 B4 h) W# l# L( ?# a# S4 Q6 ztvb now,tvbnow,bttvbYou will be surprised to find how many bridges you cross a day, bridges across the islands, pedestrian bridges to cross the road, bridges built on land as freeways and highways etc. z* ^7 Q% a7 @0 Ntvb now,tvbnow,bttvb m3 A& z; I3 }( f% l$ ytvb now,tvbnow,bttvbHere is an example of another magnificent bridge; the Millau bridge - The Bridge in the Sky.4 K( W' W' I$ r: E* c- a
