Have you ever visit a long bridge. There is a bridge that connecting the 2 Kingdoms of Saudi Arabia and Bahrain. You can visit and have a site seeing from the border from Saudi Arabia in Al khobar. If you wish to cross the bridge you need a visa from the host kingdom if you are not a citizen of the GCC.
Have you ever visit a long bridge like this one?

Hi otobits, I haven’t visited the Bahrain Bridge that connects the Saudi Arabia and Bahrain before. I think the sightseeing in Al Khobar must be awesome. Anyway it’s not convenient that we have to show the visa as many of us here are not citizen of the GCC
I had visited the Bosphorus Bridge which linked the two continents of Asia and Europe by the end of last year. Our tourist bus rode on the beautiful bridge from Ortakoy, the European side to the Asian side, Beylerbeyi. It was really congested before the office hour in the morning. So we had to take 40 minutes or so to reach the opposite side travelling on the 1.5 km long bridge.
The landscapes on either sides of the bridge are attractive. We went back to Istanbul, the largest city of Turkey during night time. We could see the fascinating night scene from the bridge. It was really amazing with bright and colorful neon signs. It was an exciting experience to travel on the world 15th longest suspension bridge span in night time
Happy posting
