这座古桥在哪呢? Where is this historical bridge?
古罗马桥,科尔多瓦,西班牙
科尔多瓦的古罗马桥跨越瓜达尔基维尔河,是这座城市的一处历史地标。这座桥始建于公元前1世纪罗马帝国的扩张时期,在历史上曾被多次重建,目前这座桥的主体是在8世纪由阿拉伯人重建。虽然它已经承载了数个世纪的交通往来,但现在这座桥仅供行人通行。如果你觉得它很眼熟,可能是因为你曾在《权力的游戏》第五季中见过它,在剧中它是虚构的瓦兰提斯城的一部分。
Roman bridge of Córdoba, Spain
The Roman bridge of Córdoba, in the ancient Spanish city’s historic center, has been rebuilt several times over the centuries. For 2,000 years it was the city’s only bridge across the Guadalquivir River, originally built in the first century BCE during the expansion of the Roman Empire. Much of the current bridge dates from reconstruction in the 8th century following the Moorish conquest, a period when hundreds of mosques and palaces were built, and Córdoba became one of Europe's largest cities and a center of learning and culture.
While it has seen centuries of traffic, the bridge is now only open to pedestrians, following the opening of the Miraflores Bridge in 2004. If it looks familiar, you might have spotted it standing in as part of the fictional city of Volantis in 'Game of Thrones.'
