This
is
a
beautiful
old
bridge
in
the
center
of
Murcia.
The
bridge
crosses
the
river
Segura.
Go
and
see
this
bridge,
walk
over
it
and
take
a
picture
in
the
middle.
Then
go
eat
a
typical
Murcian
dish
in
one
of
the
restaurants
nearby.
Murcia
is
a
hidden
gem.
About
the
bridge:
The
Iron
Bridge
is
also
called
the
“Modern
Bridge.”
It
is
a
metal
bridge
that
spans
the
Segura
River.
Its
construction
was
completed
in
1903
in
the
city
of
Murcia.
As
it
is
the
second
bridge
built
in
the
city,
it
became
called
the
New
Bridge
to
distinguish
it
from
the
old
bridge,
although
it
Today,
the
city’s
second
oldest
bridge,
built
at
the
time
in
the
fashion
imposed
by
the
Eiffel
Tower,
is
now
pedestrian-only
due
to
its
girders
that
cannot
handle
the
current
amount
of
traffic.
