Jambatan Paling Menakjubkan Di Dunia
Sometimes a bridge is a parameter of development of a country.
Sometime those bridges also can be used as a symbol of art. Here’s some
of the most amazing bridges around the world:
Ponte Vecchio (Italy): Oldest and Most Famous of its kind
The Ponte Vecchio in Florence is one of the most famous tourist spots in Italy, and is thought to be the oldest wholly-stone built, segmental arch bridge in Europe, although there are many partial segments which date further back. It was originally built of wood until destroyed by floods in 1333, and twelve years later it was rebuilt using stone . Famous for its lining of shops, the bridge has housed everybody from Medieval merchants and butchers to souvenir stalls and art dealers.
Magdeburg Water Bridge (Germany): Europe’s Largest Water Bridge
The Magdeburg Water Bridge connects the former East and West Germany over the Elbe River, and it was made as part of the unification project. 1 km long, the 500 million euros water bridge enables river barges to avoid a lengthy and sometimes unreliable passage along the Elbe.
Oliveira Bridge (Brazil): World’s First X-shaped Cable Stayed Bridge with two crossed lanes
The Octavio Frias de Oliveira Bridge over the Pinheiros River in São Paulo, Brazil was opened in May 2008. It is 138 metres (450-ft) tall, and connects Marginal Pinheiros to Jornalista Roberto Marinho Avenue. Its design is unique in that the 2 curved decks of the bridge cross each other through its X-shaped supporting tower.
Rolling Bridge (UK): The Bridge that Curls Up on Itself
Designed by Heatherwick Studio, the award-winning Rolling Bridge is located Paddington Basin, London. Rather than a conventional opening bridge mechanism, consisting of a single rigid element that lifts to let boats pass, the Rolling Bridge gets out of the way by curling up until its two ends touch. While in its horizontal position, the bridge is a normal, inconspicuous steel and timber footbridge; fully open, it forms a circle on one bank of the water that bears little resemblance to its former self. Twelve metres long, the bridge is made in eight steel and timber sections, and is made to curl by hydraulic rams set into the handrail between each section.
Henderson Waves (Singapore): Most Beautiful Pedestrian Bridge
At a height of 36 metres or 12 storeys from the road, it is the highest pedestrian bridge in Singapore. The 300-metre bridge links up the parks at Mount Faber and Telok Blangah Hill.
Millau Bridge (France): World’s Tallest Vehicular Bridge
Towering 1,125-ft above the Tarn Valley in southern France, driving along the Millau Bridge is said to feel like flying. This Foster + Partners marvel is slightly taller than the Eiffel Tower, took three years to build and opened to the public in 2004. While it may provide picturesque views of the valley below, once the mist descends it is not a route for the faint hearted! TheMillau Bridge has a total length of 8,071-ft with the longest single span at 1,122-ft and a maximum clearance below of 886-ft; in short the bridge is massively impressive both on paper and in real life. The deck is lofted on 7 pylons and weighs 36,000 tonnes. A series of 7 masts, each 292-ft tall andweighing 700 tonnes, are attached to the corresponding pylons.
Hangzhou Bay Bridge (China): World’s Longest Trans-Oceanic Bridge
Across the Hangzhou Bay extends the longest trans-oceanic bridge in the world, with 35,673 kilometres (22 mi) long with six expressway lanes in two directions. The bridge was built to address traffic congestion in the booming region, cutting the driving time between Shanghai and Ningbo from four to two-and-a-half hours.finally opened to the public on May 1, 2008. Total investment on the bridge was RMB 11.8 billion (around US$ 1.4 billion.)
Banpo Bridge (South Korea): The Fountain Bridge
On September 9, 2008, the Banpo Bridge in Seoul (South Korea) got a major facelift: a 10,000-nozzle fountain that runs all the way on both sides. Immediately after being installed, the bridge turned into a major tourist attraction, as the bridge pumps out 190 tons of water per minute using the water from the river below.

Wain ular (Vietnam Liquor)
Wain ular dan kala jengking boleh didapati di beberapa negara-negara Asia Tenggara seperti Vietnam, Thailand, Laos Kemboja, juga di Korea, dan Jepun. Adakah anda terfikir bahawa terdapat didunia arak ular dan kala jengking ini? Ya, dan anda pasti terkejut jika anda tidak pernah mendengarnya sebelum ini.
Seperti yang saya sebutkan sebelum ini, wain Ular dan wain Scorpion adalah minuman keras Asia yang boleh didapati di beberapa negara-negara Asia Tenggara. Untuk menyediakan minuman yang luar biasa ini, ular-ular tedung atau beberapa kala jengking yang dimasukkan ke dalam botol yang dipenuhi dengan arak wain beras telus dan beberapa herba ditambah sebelum minuman dibiarkan untuk menapai selama berbulan-bulan (kadang-kadang ia termasuk beberapa spesies lain juga). Ular ular tedung berbisa yang digunakan untuk membuat wain Ular adalah selamat kerana bisa ular adalah berasaskan protein, ianya dilemahkan oleh kesan denaturing etanol, dan tidak ada yang lebih berbahaya, tetapi ini menjadikan ianya minuman keras yang sihat dengan banyak manfaat kesihatan.
Menurut rekod minuman ini pertama kalinya dibuat di China. Banyak jenis minuman ular boleh dijumpai di seluruh Asia, tetapi yang paling terkenal dan satu-satunya yang boleh didapati di Vietnam, Thailand dan Laos.

Ikan Besar yang Makan Buaya Dan Manusia
Semasa ekspedisi memancing di Sungai Congo di Afrika, pemancing British, Jeremy Wade, 52, telah berjaya menangkap ikan Goliath tiger-fish. Goliath dianggap sebagai salah satu ikan air tawar terbesar di dunia dan dikhuatiri lebih besar dan lebih berbahaya daripada piranha. Ikan gergasi ini mempunyai 32 gigi yang sama saiz dengan jerung putih besar dan ia bijak untuk belajar menyerang manusia dan buaya. Sekumpulan nelayan berjaya menangkapnya di dalam habitat yang sangat sukar untuk diterokai.
Ikan ini adalah umpama piranha gergasi. Ia agak buas. Gigi di atasnya amat tajam dan kira-kira panjangnya sama seperti jerung putih. Ia juga mempunyai gigitan yang sangat kuat dan telah diketahui berkemampuan untuk memakan mangsa yang sama saiz dengannya, menyerang manusia dan mengoyak-ngoyakkan badan buaya. Ikan ini menyerang secara reflek dan boleh menyerang secara tiba-tiba apabila ada percikan air. Ianya amat sukar ditangkap, terutama oleh orang luar kerana mereka yang ditemui di lokasi yang jauh dan sukar untuk sampai.

Akurium Terkecil di Dunia
Akuarium terkecil di dunia ini hanya boleh di isi dua sudu teh air sahaja, ia boleh diletakkan di tapak tangan anda, dan ada ruang yang hanya untuk ikan terkecil di dalamnya.
Ia mungkin tidak menjadi persekitaran yang paling luas - ia jauh dari Amazon atau Lautan Atlantik - tetapi ikan bayi masih mempunyai semua rumah akuarium biasa yang selesa dengan batu-batu yang berwarna-warni, pasir dan rumput laut.
Ukurannya hanya 30 x14mm x 24, tangki kaca 10ml telah dicipta oleh artis Rusia dan pereka Anatoly Konenko - yang masih terdapat ruang untuk penapis air.
Konenko mempunyai kepakaran dalam miniatur selama 30 tahun, dan sebelum ini telah menguasai seni penulisan pada beras, biji popi dan juga rambut manusia.
Ikan Bertangan Yang Amat Jarang di Jumpai
Ini ikan yang amat jarang ditemui di luar pantai Tasmania dan Australia. Ikan bertangan ini jarang bersendirian, ianya adalah makhluk yang bergerak perlahan. Ikan-ikan ini menggunakan siripnya untuk berjalan di atas dasar laut, dan bukannya berenang
National Geographic mempunyai satu siri rencana tentang ikan ini, yang dikesan amat jarang dan sukar bagi ahli-ahli sains untuk mengkajinya. Terdapat hanya 14 spesies handfish ini, dan jika bertelur, telurnya sangat sedikit. Kebanyakannya terancam.
Ia makan dengan mengembara dengan perlahan-lahan merentasi dasar laut, makan cacing dan krustasia. Walaupun ikan-ikan ini membuat suatu sasaran mudah untuk pemangsa, mereka berjaya untuk melarikan diri dari dimakan kerana mereka mempunyai kulit yang sangat toksik.
