Ljubljana Bridges Quiz β Triple Bridge and Dragon Bridge
Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia, is built along the Ljubljanica River. Architect Joze Plecnik added two footbridges beside an older bridge to create the Triple Bridge next to Preseren Square.
The Art Nouveau Dragon Bridge, opened in 1901, has dragon statues at its corners and was among Europe's early reinforced concrete bridges. Legend says Jason and the Argonauts slew a dragon here, and the dragon appears on the city crest.
Butchers' Bridge, opened in 2010, is covered with love padlocks and bronze sculptures, while Plecnik also designed Cobblers' Bridge. The city's car-free center helped it become European Green Capital in 2016.
