better on black!
The Malleco Viaduct (Spanish: Viaducto del Malleco) is a railway bridge in central Chile, passing over the Malleco River valley in the Araucania Region. It was opened in 1890. At that time it was the highest such bridge in the world. A myth claims that the bridge was designed by Gustave Eiffel. Eiffel made a bridge proposal, but it was rejected by the Chilean authorities. It was designed by Aurilio Lasterria and the manufacture of the bridge was awarded to Schneider et Cie. O Le Creusot, another French company.
