2. Millau Viaduct Bridge, France

Soaring 1,125 feet above the Tarn Valley, the Millau Viaduct is a daring landmark of modern design. Conceived by engineer Michel Virlogeux and architect Norman Foster, this record holder is the tallest bridge on Earth, peaking at 1,125 feet (343 meters). Its height and refined lines awe and unsettle, especially the height shy.
Despite its scale, seven slim pylons and cable stays lend it a floating grace. On misty days it seems to glide above clouds, its 8,071 foot (2,460 meter) span magnifying the grandeur. Crossing can daunt those with vertigo as the immense drop opens below. Advanced materials and methods shaped a steel deck that melds with the landscape. Robust safety systems ensure a secure trip, making it a vital link on the A75 from Paris toward Barcelona.
