Circular logic
Rafael Viñoly, one of the most famous architects born here in Uruguay, designed the circular bridge in our image. Laguna Garzón Bridge consists of two semicircular one-way sections that form a kind of lagoon within a lagoon. Owing to the design, cars slow down on the stretch, and—bonus!—pedestrians get their own dedicated lanes running along both the inner and outer part of the circle, allowing for some fantastic sightseeing.
