Autumn and I have taken the first steps together...

The Bridge of Lies...

        The Romanian name of the bridge is "Podul Minciunilor" which is accurately translated as “The Bridge of Lies”, but most English language descriptions refer to it as "The Liars’ Bridge" ("Lügenbrücke" in German). 

        The Bridge of Lies is the second cast-iron bridge built in Europe and  the first and the oldest cast-iron bridge in service on the entire territory of Romania. 

        Today it is a source of pride for Sibiu, being regarded as one of the most important symbols of the city. The cast-iron bridge was constructed in 1859 to replace a wooden bridge - bearing the same name - which had stood there since 1771. 

        The bridge is unique not only due to its age but also due to the legends that surround it. It was said that the bridge was the perfect place to make an honest vow because it would creak at the slightest lie and would crumble at more serious lies. 

        Today the bridge is a popular place for young lovers who consider it the perfect spot to declare their feelings. Brides and grooms regularly have their customary wedding photos taken on the bridge.

        A bit of advice: when you're on the bridge try to avoid telling lies, however small and harmless they might be! ;-)

Life that means for us to transform constantly into light and flame all that we are, 

and also all that we meet with; we cannot possibly do otherwise.
