This multi-level spiral interchange above the Chao Phraya River looks more like a rollercoaster than a bridge. This bridge is in the south of Bangkok between the two cable-slated Bhumibol bridges and reaches a height of 164 feet.
The bridge connects the north-south route over the bridges with the western approach. It has a very elegant design, with concrete towers and an elongated diamond shape.

Baliem River Bridge, Western New Guinea
Located above rapid choppy waters of the Baliem river in the Baliem valley, cross this makeshift bridge at your own risk and we definitely won’t judge if you’re too afraid.
While it does look like the designer of this bridge used an acceptable outline and one which mirrors professional engineering, something about it still isn’t reassuring.
Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco
One of the most iconic structures in North America, and the number one tourist attraction in San Francisco, the Golden Gate Bridge opened to the public in 1937.
It connects San Francisco to California’s northern counties and spans almost two miles across the Golden Gate, the narrow strait where San Francisco Bay opens to the Pacific Ocean. It has tremendous 746-foot tall towers, Art Deco styling, and signature International Orange color. If you plan to visit, be ready for crowds because the bridge sees about 10 million visitors yearly.
