Bridge over the Vistula River in Kwidzyn, Pomerania (Poland)

"You can get longer spans than what you could normally get with a box girder structure, but the tower heights are not as tall as what you would normally see in a normal cable stay. They're shorter,"

Legions of Marshal Pisludski Bridge over the Vístula River in Plock, Mazovia (Poland)

Hey, long live our native tongue,
Our beautiful language,
Which, just like the eternal Wisła,
Flows from Kraków.

In a poem by Wladyslaw Lebinski

Swietokrzyski Bridge over the Vistula River in Warsaw (Poland)

On day the Mazovian prince lost his golden arrow with which he was hunting. Searching for it he came to the banks of the Vistula River. There, he saw a white arm extending from the water holding his arrow. It was a mermaid. He became enchanted with the beautiful half fish, half woman creature. She smiled and, handing him the arrow, pointed in the direction he was to take. He soon came to a clearing in the forest where stood a small cottage, the home of the fisherman Warsz. Mrs. Warszawa gave him a good supper and asked him to stay overnight as a guest. Moved by their hospitality he returned with his people and together they cleared more land and built a small settlement, called “Warszawa”.

Srednicowy Bridge and Swietokrzyski Bridge over the Vistula River in Warsaw (Poland)

Vístula, que al Danubio en lo profundo
aunque siendo menor, igual parece,
mostrando, que regar pudiera el mundo,
en el Báltico mar se desvanece.

Francisco López de Zárate

"To be defeated and not submit, is victory; to be victorious and rest on one's laurels, is defeat."
