Italian artistic genius Leonardo Da Vinci´s dream of building a bridge over the Golden Horn is coming true 500 years later. An architecture firm planning a version of the bridge over the Istanbul waterway is set to begin construction this year, while a US composer´s opera based on the idea premieres in Turkey during the 2010-11 season

Leonardo da Vinci’s dream of building a magnificent bridge over Istanbul’s Golden Horn is finally coming true, in opera and in real life, 500 years after the great Italian artist suggested it to the Ottoman sultan.

U.S. composer Daniel Nazareth has written an opera based on Leonardo’s vision while Turkish architect Hakan Kıran has begun working to build the bridge the artist imagined over the Golden Horn, also known as the Haliç.

Thanks for sharing.. The bridge looks really charming..I wonder where they are going to build it..

Is it going to be only a foot bridge or a bridge with traffic?

 

They applied the project and  built something in Norway: It looks like a dinosour to me
