About

The Zubizuri, also known as the "White Bridge," is a striking pedestrian bridge in Bilbao, Spain, designed by renowned architect Santiago Calatrava. Opened in 1997, the bridge spans the Nervión River, connecting the Ensanche area with the Campo Volantín promenade. Its sleek, futuristic design features a curved walkway and a distinctive, sweeping arch, making it a notable landmark in the city's modern architectural landscape. The bridge's glass tiles and steel cables add to its aesthetic appeal, although they have sparked some controversy due to safety concerns.
