Bridging The Gap 2
I have written a little about the Dragon Bridge on this blog before so I'm just adding a couple of pics. The river under the bridge is again the Ljubljanica in its final incarnation.

Wow!!! A bridge with dragons on it!!! Does Melli know that?
I know what you mean about loving the bridges. I'm the same way and I definitely love this one. The detail is so beautiful. I'm enjoying this challenge so much I'm glad I'm getting to see beautiful bridges from around the world.
What a wonderful bridge!!
This is a wonderful bridge indeed.
I love this bridge ALMOST as much as I love the dragons holding it up! (they are too!)
What a neat bridge! Thanks for sharing it. The dragons looks huge.
There sure a lot of art in that bridge.
My bridge picture is up.
When you get a few minutes stop on in and the coffee is always on.
This bridge is a work of art. Truly magnificent. From what I can tell, you live in a beautiful city.
The bridge is indeed a fine work. I see the date of 1848 - date of construction?
I'm so glad I enlarged it - the dragon was magnificent.
thank you everyone for your visit and kind comments.
i was wondering about the date too because i knew the bridge as it is now was built just after 1900. the official site says there was an older bridge in this place since 1819 so 1848 is a strange year... unless it denotes a year of revolutions, 'the spring of nations' ...
Hi Juliana. I was shocked to come here tonight and find that I had missed visiting you yesterday. I apologize for that. I was so sure I'd gotten to everyone... sigh. Oh well, the main thing is that I found it today. I really would have missed out on something fabulous if I'd missed this bridge. Wow, I really love it!! The detail and art work that went into it is remarkable. I love the dragons... and the lights... and the old buildings behind it. Built in 1848... 160 years ago when it was just horses & carts/buggies crossing it, and now cars. How things change with time.
Whoof!!! I agree woof everyone here who thinks this is a woofenderful bridge, arf, arf, arf.
