What are Bridges?

Bridges are not only the superstars of the engineering world, they influence the development of cultures, environments and lives in more ways than we can count. Bridges shape skylines. Imagine San Francisco without the Golden Gate Bridge, or Manhattan without the Brooklyn Bridge. These structures also shape our lives, aiding commerce, social life and urban development. I have compiled a list of what I think are some of the biggest and best bridges in the world. This is obviously not a complete list, the one's included I feel are recognised world wide.
