Views from the bridge

in #travel5 years ago

The bridge over the Sukhona River in Veliky Ustyug is the only link between several regions in the area. Other ways to get across the river by car or on foot are:

  • ferry, which does not work in the off-season;
  • ice crossings, which are available only in winter;
  • a hovercraft that does not work stably, constantly breaks down and is intended only for the transport of people;
  • helicopter, only for emergency assistance.

The bridge connects only part of the paths. To get to the Kirov region, which is nearby, you need to cross the Northern Dvina River. And then there is the third river South. Our edge needs another bridge, but everyone knows that it will never be. This is a very heavy amount for the regional budget.

From the lyrics, let us turn to what can be seen and photographed from the bridge over the Sukhona River.

The most important thing that can be seen from the bridge is the ensemble of temples on the city Embankment.

If a telephoto lens allows, more remote churches can be captured.

If you really take far, then you can see the spiers sticking out of the farthest church because of the turn of the river.

Of course, from the bridge one can see the temples of Dymkovo settlement, which is located on the opposite bank of the river.

If you take a closer look, you can see the village of Onbovo. It is located at the very foot of the bridge and adjoins the village of Dobrynino.

On the bridge, everything is beautiful. Only straining a strong sagging of the roadway between the supports ...

Let me remind you, once in 1986, one span of the bridge was already collapsed.
