Rio
Going places with a miracle on water
Archaeological sites, castles, beaches and a monumental new bridge, all in perfect harmony with the land.
The tremendous feat of construction that is the bridge of Rio-Antirio is one of those happy moments in the course of a country’s history when the seed of inspiration and unyielding determination gives rise to a miracle. It transformed a narrow strait into a radiant international landmark, pointing to a new hope and bringing people, cultures and experiences together like never before. One of the largest suspension bridges in the world, it is the face of modern Greece, a beacon to the creative, pioneering spirit, cooperation and commitment to seeing all your goals through to their successful conclusion. Essential as it is as a motorway extension, it transcends mere physical considerations, by heralding the wishes and dreams of millions; a symbol that Greeks can be proud to hand on to posterity as part of their precious heritage.
