The Pont Alexandre Bridge
Pont Alexandre III is an arch bridge that spans the Seine, connecting the Champs-Élysées quarter and the Invalides and Eiffel Tower Quarter, regarded by many as one of the prettiest in Paris.Pont Alexandre III was constructed at the same time as the Grand Palais and Petit Palais, as a part of the 1900 World Exposition. Pont Alexandre III has a typical Art Nouveau style, with charming lamps, nymphs and angels along the sides.
The construction of the beautiful bridge of Pont Alexandre III took place between the years 1896 and 1900. As with many others of the World Exposition buildings, the bridge is a marvel of 19th century engineering. Pont Alexandre III is built with the rare method of using a single 6 meter high steel arch and counterweights on each side to balance it up.

Clifton suspension Bridge- Bristol, UK
TheClifton Suspension Bridge is a suspension bridge, which opened in 1864, spanning the Avon Gorge and the River Avon, linking Clifton in Bristol to Leigh Woods in North Somerset, England. Designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel, the bridge is a grade I listed building and forms part of the B3129 road.The idea of building a bridge across the Avon Gorge originated in 1753. Original plans were for a stone bridge, and later iterations were for a wrought iron structure. In 1831, an attempt to build Brunel's design was stopped by the Bristol riots, and the revised version of his designs was built after his death and completed in 1864. The bridge deck is suspended by 81 matching vertical wrought-iron rods.
