The Mathematical Bridge at Queen's College, Cambridge

Spanning the River Cam between King's Parade and Trinity Lane within the historic precincts of Queens' College is an iconic example of mathematics applied to architecture - the Mathematical Bridge. This stone bridge features classical design elements such as Ionic columns that support its elegant arches over the waterway. It has been immortalized by various literary works including Lewis Carroll's 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland'. On either side stand buildings richly adorned with Gothic Revival architectural details which enhance this picturesque scene under a clear blue sky.
