Stari Most, Bosnia
Literally translated as “Old Bridge” in English, Stari Most was thought to be built in 1566 and managed to withstand the test of time until the bridge was destroyed in 1993 during the outbreak of the Bosnian war. More than $13 million was spent on rebuilding the 16th Century bridge until it was finally restored and opened to the public again in 2004. It is a tradition for locals to dive off this bridge into the river below. The bridge is also recognized as a world heritage site.

Beautiful bridges and interesting information, thank you!
But the essential point is missing: the Names of their creators, the Architects who envisioned and brought to light these magnificent works! It's not like these appeared out of nowhere!
Their merits have to be recognized every time people see their creations.
Like when you see the Mona Lisa and immediately Leonardo's name comes to mind...
