What unique mechanism allows the historic Queen Emma Bridge in Willemstad to let ships pass into the harbor?
Tap your pick
Built in 1888, the Queen Emma Bridge is a historic pontoon bridge supported by 16 pontoon boats. Instead of lifting up like a drawbridge, the entire structure swings laterally to the side of the channel to let ships pass. Locals affectionately call this iconic pedestrian crossing the Swinging Old Lady. Photo: Bjørn Christian Tørrissen, Wikimedia Commons, CC BY-SA 3.0.
