Without a doubt, bridges are amazing structures. And while some people love them, many are highly terrified of going over them. Nevada is home to some pretty amazing bridges. Some of these bridges are historic and modern, while others are abandoned or built to attract tourists. Listed below are nine bridges in Nevada that you should definitely check out.
This amazing bridge is located within the Lake Mead National Recreation Area and was the first concrete-steel composite arch bridge built in the United States. It spans the Colorado River between the states of Arizona and Nevada, and it opened in 2010.
Wingfield Park is nestled within the heart of Reno's Riverwalk district. This popular park area contains several beautiful bridges and this one, in my opinion, is the most lovely.
