One Of The Highest Bridges In The Whole Country Is Right Here In Maine
Those of us who love Maine know that there’s a lot to brag about. From the beauty of our landscape to the lip-smacking deliciousness of our restaurants, we like to believe that most people across the country would prefer to be right here in Vacationland. And though we’re happy with all the impressive things we’ve got here, today we’re focused on one of the more unexpected “best-of” attractions.
The Penobscot Narrows Bridge and Observatory measures in at 2,120 feet long, making it one of the largest in the country. And perhaps even more impressive is that the bridge observatory is the largest in the world!
Taking the elevator to the top means some of the best views in Maine. And, given that this is the highest observatory in the world, these views might just be the best anywhere.
The Penobscot Narrows Bridge & Observatory is typically open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day. But be sure to check posted times depending on the season and weather. You can learn more about it and how to visit by checking out this website. You can reach them for questions on 207-469-6553.
Michelle has lived in many places, but counts Maine as one of the best. In addition to the smell of ocean water in the air on rainy days in Portland, she loves puppies, photography, funny people, the Maine Red Claws, traveling, fresh tomatoes, Cambodia and filling out forms.
