Catanzaro — Ponte Bisantis & Centro Storico

Calabria

Catanzaro sits on a narrow ridge between two deep gorges, a position so constrained that the modern Ponte Bisantis, one of the tallest single-span bridges in Europe, was built simply to connect the city to its outskirts. The historic centre's streets give views down into the gorges from several points.
