The City of Jerusalem has a new and monumental entranceway. Officials today inaugurated a new bridge designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava during a public gala ceremony. Dignitaries from the Mayor of Jerusalem to government ministers were on hand and the crowd was entertained by orchestras, dancers, and other cultural groups.
The bridge is part of the Jerusalem’s new rail system (coming soon) that will evenutally provide rapid public transportation around the city.
