Flying Bridge - Amazing Bridge in Netherlands...

This is a seriously cool bridge, located in Leeuwarden, Netherlands (where else?) You’ve got to love how the roadway has a cutout for the arm to drop into; clever!

















"Water is Life" - Road Painted in Blue, Amazing Street Art...

Artist Henk Hofstra created an "urban river" in Drachten (Netherlands). The Blue Road installation is an example of what mind-blowing urban public art can be. Featuring 1000 metres of road painted blue and the phrase "Water is Life" written in eight-meter-high letters across it, the Blue Road is reminiscent of the waterway that used to be where the road is now. It's a memorial to nature, but it's also just plain awe-inspiring. There's even a few cool tidbits along the road, like a sinking car. The project took 4000 liters of paint and cost 75,000 Euros. Half of the cost was covered by municipal funds.
