THE TURRETS of BRUGGE… by magdaindigo by magdaindigo
Day 12
The Meebrug is the oldest bridge in Bruges.
The first mention of the Meebrug dates from 1290. The current name was only first used in 1440.
In 1390 the original wooden bridge was replaced by a stone copy built by the famous bridge builder Bruges Jan van Oudenaarde .
The Meebrug is a simple arch bridge paved with cobblestones.
The turrets, ahhhh how people of Brugge love them, put them everywhere, but here, on Brugse Vrije, the 16th century rear facade of the manor on the ‘Groenerei’, they wow you.
I wish you a day full of beauty and thank you for your visit, Magda, (*_*)

Similar to national parks, national conservation areas are designated by Congress and feature scientific, cultural, historical and recreational features. They’re places like California’s King Range National Conservation Area, where the dominate feature is a spectacular meeting of land and sea. Mountains seem to thrust straight out of the surf. King Peak, the highest point at 4,088 feet, is only three miles from the ocean. Showing dazzling spring colors, the unique landscape and abundant wildlife make this fascinating place perfect for everything from scientific study to extreme recreation.
