In Seville we like to change the names to things, That's why we say Triana Bridge instead of Isabel II Bridge or Mushrooms instead of Metropol Parasol. In this context traspolación and metamorphoses of words, significant and not of Seville but also of the Andalusians, We find the call V Centenario Bridge. Bridge Built in 1992 and commemorating the 500 anniversary of the discovery of America.

The project designed by architects José Antonio Fernández Ordóñez and Julio Martinez Calzon took resemblance to the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. Hence sole bridge called Paquito. It is curious that the name has been extrapolated to such term can already find the V Centenario Bridge Bridge in Google Maps Paquito.

 

What they have in common Triana Bridge, Big Ben and the Eiffel Tower?
