In Georgia there are also strange bridges, which are worth seeing for the curious tourists. The Peace Bridge in Tbilisi is one of the most popular urban sights. It stretches over the Kura River and connects the old town of Tbilisi with the new residential areas. The length of the pedestrian bridge, which is characterized by the exquisite design, forms 156 meters.
The bridge is decorated with a large glass canopy that shines like a giant crystal in the sunshine at the time of the day. The bridge design was developed by the famous Italian architect Micele de Lucci. The French designer and lighting designer Phillip Martino designed the decorations. In addition to hundreds of glass panels, the bridge is decorated with 30,000 LED bulbs, which are switched on at nightfall.
At first glance, it may seem that the tiny lights are shimmering chaotically. In reality, they send an important message with Morse alphabet. The message contains the names of the main elements of which the human body consists. The bridge was opened in 2010. The initiator of the construction was the President of the country, Micheil Saakashvili. On the picturesque bridge you can even walk in the bad weather and enjoy the panorama on the river. The canopy protects safely from any storm.
