In love with a bridge

The bridge of María Cristina,
San Sebastián, Basque country, Spain.
A bridge that falls in love
His story begins in 1905
It was given the name María Cristina in honor of the Queen consort of Spain María Cristina de Habsburgo-Lorraine
All is beauty.
Its four obelisks
Located at the ends, a copy of the bridge of Alexander III, of Paris,

Through the river Urumea.
Its streetlights that light up at night are with a couple of cherubs.
They shake hands as good friends.
Here friendship is highly valued, it is a very big thing that you have to take care of.

It also has dragons with their mouths open to throw fire to those who do not appreciate their beauty.
With a boat shield with its sails in the wind, because here we love the sea.
Through his mouth we can see a beautiful picture.

From here we can also appreciate how the sea enters the river with the tides.
Seeing the other bridge Santa Catalina.

With its three arches adorned with mermaids and marine creatures.
All full of beauty and mystery.

It also has mosaics in blue
It depicts a dragon in yellow gold.
Threatening and pulling the claws.
Defending the territory.

If we look up we see the streetlights.
The dragons guard them.
It is as if they wanted to preserve the light in the darkness.
And above all take off their wings, ready to let out a blaze.

I do not know what else to say.
He is beautiful and unique.
I hope my photographs express what makes me feel better than me.
It is a pleasure to arrive by bus to Donostia and the first thing you find more to descend is that you are greeted by such a beautiful thing.
The door to know San Sebastian a place full of beauty and history.
