These colorful reflections are coming from the skyscrapers at Manhattan an reflect in East River, seen from Brooklyn. The foreground bridge is Brooklyn Bridge, well know from many movies and offers a very impressive connection from Brooklyn to Manhattan, the central island of New York. This park, Empire Fulton Ferry, offers a nice view of the great Skyline of New York.

From the Pont Saint-Bénézet (better known as Bridge of Avignon / Pont d’Avignon), you have a beautiful view on the old city of Avignon. The Papal Palace is clearly visible. The Pont d’Avignon was built in the 12th century and originally 899m long. It had 22 arches, but only 4 of them still stand and reach into the river Rhone. The Bridge of Avignon once has been the only fixed connection between Lyon and the Mediterranean.
