We can all appreciate good architecture when we see it, from the Great Pyramids in Egypt to the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco.
So, If you like beautiful structures, download this week's News Illustrated page on the Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed Crossing.
It's a huge arch bridge that will be built in Dubai, one of the fastest growing cities in the world. When the bridge is completed, the arch of the bridge will stand at a whopping 672 feet above sea level and will have a span 2,001 feet, making it the largest arch bridge on the planet.
The video below shows a cool 360 degree view of the bridge:
The bridge will cost around $816.9 million dollars and is projected to be completed by 2012.
