This soaring cable-stayed bridge spans the Golden Horn bay in the heart of Vladivostok, linking the two sides of the harbour city and transforming its skyline. Completed for an international summit in the early 2010s, its twin pylons and fanned cables rise dramatically above the water and the port. Along with the nearby Russky Bridge, it became an emblem of the modern city and features on Russian currency. Best seen from the surrounding hills, the illuminated structure is a favourite subject for photographers.
