Rio-Antirio Bridge


Rio-Antirio Bridge, originally uploaded by Ava Babili.

The Rio-Antirio bridge, officially called "Charilaos Trikoupis" bridge after the statesman who first envisioned it, is a cable-stayed bridge crossing the Gulf of Corinth near Patras, linking the town of Rio on the Peloponnese to Antirio on mainland Greece, thus connecting the peninsula with the rest of Europe.
