A 300-metre arch built over a chasm, the most difficult task of the new Kobi-Kvesheti road, has been completed - a bridge hailed as a project of the century and a calling card of Georgia

The Caucasus Mountains present a difficult struggle against harsh nature, but for a project of the century it is definitely worth it. The most difficult task in building the 23-kilometre Kobi-Kvesheti road has been completed: a 300-metre arch was erected over the chasm, and before the bridge is laid on it, this architectural structure has already become the main attraction of the Khada Gorge. The builders walked on a tightrope bridge. They spent almost 2 years over the chasm to establish a centuries-old connection between two mountains. The arch structure distributes the load onto the supports.
