The historic ‘Puente Antonio José de Sucre’ (also known as Puente Sucre or Puente Méndez). The suspension bridge spans the Río Pilcomayo and connects the two departments of Chuquisaca (Sucre) and Potosí. The structure was built at the end of the 19th century (between 1890 and 1910) and is characterised by its distinctive, almost medieval-looking brick towers. Today, the historic wooden structure serves exclusively as a footbridge. – Bolivia – 1976
