Directly directed to the Fort Saint Angel, there are 12 wonderful statues on the bridge. In the case of good weather, the effect of the shot is really good. The statue is very well preserved and the shapes are different. Some places are just right.
The St. Angel Bridge is very close to the St. Angel Castle and is only a five-minute walk away. The St. Angel Bridge is an ancient Roman bridge that spans the Tiber River and connects the city and the St. Angel Castle. The bridge is paved in marble and has three bridge arches for pedestrians to walk through.
In fact, there are several bridges leading to the old city, the most famous of which is the Saint Angel Bridge designed by the famous Italian sculptor Bernini, known as "the most beautiful bridge on the Tiber River". Because there were too many visitors during the day, we came to St. Angel's Bridge at the beginning of the lantern, in pursuit of the princess's footsteps. There is no place beside the bridge where the couple left their affection. It's supposed to be a scene built in the movie. But it doesn't matter. We can walk slowly across the St. Angel Bridge and watch the shape of the bridge and 12 angel statues.
The Bridge of St. Angels (PonteSant''Angelo), also known as PonsAelius, is an ancient Roman bridge in Rome, Italy, across the Tiber River, built by Roman Emperor Hadrian in 134 AD, connecting the city center with his newly built tomb, today's Castle of St. Angel. The bridge is paved in marble with three arches. The bridge is currently only for pedestrians and offers the prospect of a view of the Castle of Saint Angel. It connects the bridge area (Ponte, named after the bridge) with the Borgo area. The bridge is paved in marble with three arches. The bridge is currently only for pedestrians. In the past, pilgrims passed through the bridge to St. Peter's Basilica, so it is also known as the St. Peter Bridge (ponsSanctiPetri). In the 6th century, Pope Umuel I named both the castle and the bridge as the Holy Angel, and legend has it that Archangel Michel appeared on the roof of the castle to announce the end of the Black Death. In the 1450 leap year, many drowned in the river due to the arrival of a large number of pilgrims, so the bridgehead houses and a Roman Arc de Triomphe were demolished to widen the passage of the pilgrimage.
Ancient Roman bridges, connecting the city centre and the Castle of Saint Angels, marble paving, pedestrians come and go, the statues above are very lifelike, very delicate, looking at the bridge of Saint Angels on the castle is another feeling, good.
Bridge is long and usually full of vendors with various assortments of things. very picturesque.
