The World's Tallest Bridge Opens In France

Towering above the gray rocks and primeval trees that line the lazy Tarn River stretches a "state-of-the-art symbol of modern architecture, its seven staggering pillars piercing the valley mist. The Millau Bridge -- the world's tallest -- has arrived."

"Looking up from the valley floor, you might struggle to see the bridge's underside: often, only the pillars are visible, as fog tends to engulf the roadway that spans the empyrean."

The San Diego Tribune also has a nice photo, and Expatica offers several views. BridgePros offers a technical overview of the project.
