Bosphorus Bridge

The Bosphorus Bridge is the first sea-crossing bridge across the Bosphorus Strait, linking the two continents of Asia and Europe. There is a white line in the middle of the bridge as the dividing line between Asia and Europe. The east of the white line is Asia, and the west is Europe. It is very interesting. Spectacular bridge body building This suspension bridge has a "gate"-shaped pylon at each end. There are no piers in the water. The entire bridge body is pulled by two thick steel cables, each of which is pulled by tens of thousands of 5mm steel cables. The steel wire is twisted and supports the entire bridge deck, which looks spectacular. The bridge spanning the water surface of the strait between the two tower bridges is 1074 meters long, 33 meters wide, and 64 meters above the sea. The bridge deck can drive 6 cars side by side. If the bridge is full of cars, the west bank tower will be inclined inward by 86 cm, and the east bank tower will be inclined by 90 cm. When the wind blows, the bridge will swing a meter or two from side to side, but this is not dangerous. The colorful night scene Whenever the sun sets and night falls, the Strait Bridge and the two sides of the strait are brightly lit, and the water surface is shimmering with silver light, reflecting the ancient castles, mosques, house shadows and forest shadows on the shore. It is colorful and full of magical colors. . Viewed from a distance, the bridge over the sea looks like a giant dragon lying down.
