Ponte Sant'Angelo


This is a photograph of the walking bridge named Ponte Sant'Angelo, that crosses the Tiber River in Rome. The bridge goes straight to Castel Sant'Angelo, an old fortress used by former Popes, and is now a museum. I was on top of the Castel Sant'Angelo when I took this picture. The Ponte Sant'Angelo has ten different sculptures on it, five on each side, all made by 10 different sculptors after being ordered to replace different statues in 1669 by Pope Clement VII.
