Croatia on Tuesday opened a long-awaited bridge connecting two parts of the country's Adriatic Sea coastline while bypassing a small sliver of Bosnia's territory.
The 2.4km (1.5-mile) cable-stayed Peljesac bridge with total cost of 525 million Euros was built by China and largely funded by the European Union.
The bridge's span reaches out from the Croatian mainland to the Peljesac Peninsula, that connects with Croatia's southern Adriatic coast the popular tourist destination of Dubrovnik bypassing a narrow strip of Bosnian territory.
Construction of the Peljesac Bridge started in July 2018 and was completed on time, despite the pandemic.
