You never understand the beauty of a bridge until you see one in the night, its shades, and majestic feel. That's why I decided to create a list with the most amazing bridges around the world.


 Brooklyn Bridge, New York


If we talk about beauty beauty and symbols, we need to talk about New York’s Brooklyn Bridge. You will not find anything like it in the whole world. The 5,989 feet construction was build in 13 years. For nearly 20 years it dominated as the longest suspension bridge in the world. It's among the most pop tourists magnets in New York, and you can see it in many music videos.

A dazing sight for the hearts, particularly when brightened at night, the Ponte Octavio Frias de Oliveira in Sao Paulo, Brazil is the world’s first x-shaped cable stayed bridge with two crossed lanes.

Now, several researchers at Cornell University are trying to find a viable method of testing to see if we, as humans, are a string of numbers into a computer. Scientists at the University of Washington say that this theory can be tested. A similar idea came from German researchers, in November.  How to test if our world is real or imaginary? Researchers say that they can use a technique named latticequantum chromodynamics. In simple words, they will use computer simulation and they will try to build their own models.  The idea that we live in a computer simulation is not new. In 1977, the famous science
