A spectacular sight: Germany's Magdeburg aqueduct

The Dhaka Times Desk good morning Today is Sunday, 16 November 2014 Christ, 2 Agrahayan 1421 Bengal, 22 Muharram 1436 Hijri. Good morning everyone from The Dhaka Times. Happy birthday to all those whose birthday is today - happy birthday.

Although it may seem like a fairy tale, there are some amazing things in the world that seem unreal. A wonderful sight is the Magdeburg Water Bridge in Germany. Where German scientists have flowed over a river like a road flyover. Germany's Magdeburg Water Bridge would not be believed if you did not see it with your own eyes.

Going through history, it can be seen that Germany imagined this bridge until the 18th century. And in the 19th century, they thought of turning this fantasy into reality. In 1930, Germany first started the construction of this bridge. But the work of the bridge could not progress much as the Second World War started. Then after World War II, Germany was divided into two countries, East and West Germany. Due to which the work of the bridge was completely stopped. Magdeburg is a small suburb of Berlin. As Germany was divided into East and West after World War II, the Elbe-Havel river was also divided between the two Germanys. After the reunification of Germany in 1997, the work on the bridge was resumed. The bridge was then completed in October 2003. The bridge was also commissioned in the same year.
