An exact copy of the Floating bridge at VDNH

The Floating Bridge – a unique observation deck in the form of the Latin letter "V", located in the Zaryadye Park in the very center of Moscow, was opened in 2017, and in 2021 another floating bridge appeared. More precisely, its exact copy is in the Tsar-Mock-Up museum near the VDNKh metro station, on Konstantinov Street.

The copy is made on a scale of 1:87 and perfectly accurately conveys all the features of the"big brother". Moreover, it is also bustling with life: crowds of tourists go, take photos for memory and wave to the ships passing under the bridge…

By the way, this unusual structure, which has become one of the main attractions of Moscow, is called a bridge only nominally. In fact, this is a horseshoe-shaped cantilever flight that makes an arc over the Moskvoretskaya Embankment and the water of the Moskva River. The total length of the observation deck reaches almost 245 meters, while it rests on only two supports located almost at the base of the bridge, and the length of the departure of the cantilever part is 70 meters. Towering 15 meters above the level of the Moskva River, the bridge seems to float above it – that's why it was called "Floating".

The design of the bridge is unique and has no analogues in the world. It is stated that it can withstand a load of more than 240 tons – up to 3-4 thousand people at a time.
