Geocache Description:

Puente Fernando Espinoza

 


 

Hermoso puente que permite apreciar la belleza de la Barranca formada por el Río Santiago, muy cercano a Guadalajara Jalisco, por la autopista a México. Tiene miradores y espacio para estacionamiento

 
Una buena ubicación para sentarte y ver el puente y el cañón desde este punto, cuida que no te vean los posibles visitantes del lugar, trae tu pluma y envíanos tu foto
 
Parte de la historia de la construcción de este puente lo puedes encontrar en este link:
 
 
The highest and largest frame bridge in Mexico, the spectacular Fernando Espinoza bridge carries a 4-lane highway across the deep ravine of the Santiago River east of Guadalajara - Mexico’s second largest city. 
 
Constructed with a high line, the struts were built outward in pieces from their foundations, held back by cable stays. The center span pieces followed to create an arch effect before the side span pieces were lowered into place last. Espinoza was one of Mexico’s greatest civil engineers.
 
Bungee jumping is sometimes available from the bridge
