1)Tell us a little about this photo?
This picture was taken in Luzern, Switzerland, during our roadtrip from The Netherlands to Italy last september.
This is the Kapellbrücke, also known as the Chapel Bridge, and it’s a covered wooden footbridge spanning diagonally across the Reuss in the city of Lucerne in central Switzerland. Named after the nearby St. Peter’s Chapel, the bridge is unique because it contains a number of interior paintings dating back to the 17th century, although many of them were destroyed along with a larger part of the centuries-old bridge in a 1993 fire. Subsequently restored, the Kapellbrücke is the oldest wooden covered bridge in Europe, as well as the world’s oldest surviving truss bridge. It serves as the city’s symbol and as one of Switzerland’s main tourist attractions.
2)A catchy title for this photo?
Water, flowers and a wooden bridge.
