Quick Trivia from Wordist

Napier Bridge is one of Chennai’s oldest bridges, built over the Coovum River connecting Fort St. George with the Marina beach. This bridge, regarded as an architectural marvel, was built in 1869 by Francis Napier, then Governor of Madras (1866 – 1872). As part of the Marina Beach beautification project, special lights have been fixed beneath the bridge providing a visual effect as if the bridge is floating on the river water. A combination of lighting effects has been created on the arches and surface using 464 bulbs and fixtures. #besurprised #Historytoday #Chennai #Madras #History
