MODERN COVERED BRIDGES...


In cities all over the world, structures are erected to facilitate the crossing of major streets and thoroughfares. As in the ancient times, these covered walkways serve a functional purpose and are made with the latest techniques... some plain looking, some fancier and some absolutely gorgeous structures give our inner cities a character of its own.

I cannot, in all honesty, not be interested in these structures myself for they are as fascinating as the cities around them. So ATAWALK.net is about the cities and the country. On 3 continents, from 400 BC to our age, you will tour great capitals, remote regions, famous landmarks and totally unsuspected vistas. Covered bridges are a place of reunion, and for centuries, they have allowed us to remain dry, take shelter and even pose love gestures... they are now road-side attractions, theatres, concerts halls, event facilities and still part of our modern infrastructures.

Covered bridges are universal! This one is in Thailand.
