River on River (Magdeburg Water Bridge)

RIVER ON A RIVER (Magdeburg Water Bridge)
Do you think the following should be listed amongst the candidates of the 8th wonder of the world?

Water bridge … over a river …. Even after you see it, it is still hard to believe!

Water Bridge in Germany. What a feat! Six years, 500 million Euros, 918 meters long……. Now this is engineering!

This is a channel-bridge over the River Elbe and joins the former East and West Germany, as part of the unification project.

It is located in the City of Magdeburg, near Berlin.

The photo was taken on the day of inauguration. Regular Germany visitors from Uhde must have already seen this. The design reflects the importance of the creativity in engineering. Congratulations to German Civil Engineers.
