Post by Wynette: When we posted yesterday about the “hanging ferry” bridge we didn’t know much of its history. We have since learned it was built in 1800s by a student of Eiffel and is a Unesco World Heritage site. This Wikipedia article says it was built so as not to disrupt ship traffic. This is very near where the river flows into the Atlantic, which you can sort of see from photo I took hanging out of our hotel window. There was also a ferry boat just up river that took people, but not cars, back and forth.
