Ponts Couverts in Strasbourg

Overlooking the Ill River under a clear blue sky are the Ponts Couverts (Covered Bridges) of Strasbourg, UNESCO World Heritage Sites since 1988. These medieval timber bridges feature Gothic-style pointed arches that create an enchanting passage over the waterway. People stroll leisurely along the bridge lined with flower boxes bursting with pink flowers while others pause to take photographs capturing this picturesque scene. In the background stands the majestic Notre-Dame de Strasbourg Cathedral towering above the cityscape, completing one of Europe's most charming urban landscapes.
