The Millau Viaduct

I first heard of the Millau Viaduct in The Bridge That Changed The Map Of Europe - a video from the B1M on YouTube which I thoroughly enjoyed.

But there’s nothing like seeing for yourself, so armed with a French rental car and a relatively tractable drive along the motorway, I did just that. The tallest bridge in the world now joins the list of things I’ve tried and failed to capture the majesty of in a photo:

Top tip, if you’re coming from the south, pay attention for the signs to the visitor centre, otherwise you’ll end up paying the toll twice when you don’t need to.

I wish I could have captured some footage of driving over it, but without a dash cam or a passenger, you’ll just have to take my word for it that it was spectacular. And the coffee at the visitor centre was the best priced one I’d had all day.
