The bridge of the Barqueta

It consists of a steel arch of 214 m. whose ends form a triangular portico on each side, cable-stayed to support the board that has a length of 168 m. whose only supports are four vertical supports at a distance of 30 m. on the banks of the river without more intermediate supports and with a width of 21.40 m.
The triangular porticos receive the axial force of the arch, visually serving as the "gate" of entrance to Expo 92, the theme park and the technology park.

Jag personligen gillar arkitekturen på denna bro. På kvällen så lyser den upp som en del av Sevilla. Precis som allt annat som lyser upp.
