Budapest Chain Bridge #13

Chain Bridge是第一座連接Buda與Pest的永久性建築,古老而壯美。Chain Bridge is the oldest bridge spanning Danube in Budapest, and was built by Count Istvan Szechenyi based on the 1839 design by the English civil engineer William Tierney Clark. The bridge was destroyed by the Nazis during WW II, and was re-built in 1949.

傳說設計師完成此建築時才發現其中一隻獅子口裡沒有舌頭,因而內疚跳河而死。
