Rising majestically above the Tarn River valley, the Millau Viaduct stands as an engineering triumph and emblem of contemporary France. At 1,125 feet above the valley floor, it claims the title of world's tallest bridge, its elegant towers piercing the clouds. The panoramic view from the bridge is absolutely breathtaking, but for those afraid of heights, traversing it becomes a genuine courage test. The feeling of floating high above the terrain, with only a narrow roadway beneath and endless sky surrounding you, proves both exhilarating and nerve-wracking.
