Town of Ispra, about 50km from Milan.


But first, what has to be one of the best stretches in Europe to drive on:

For about 100km, the highway is either a bridge, or a tunnel,
and not a section of it actually straight.

just a few pics.

question is, what do you build first ? The bridge bit, or the tunnel bit ? :)
