The bridge of angels

The Ponte Sant'Angelo across the Tiber River in Rome, Italy

The bridge across the Tevere (Tiber River) to the Pope's private castle (Castle Sant'Angelo; it's round because its built atop the Hadrian's tomb) is lined with flowing statues of angels designed by Bernini. There are some great sunlight effects on the marble at sunset.
