Web camera on the roof of Pštross Villa family hotel in Bechyne is focused on Lužnice river valley with famous concrete arch bridge called "Duha" ("The Rainbow").
Bechyne "Rainbow" bridge (Bechynský most "Duha"), a unique reinforced concrete arch bridge over the river Lužnice in Bechyne, is as elegant construction as it was in the photo taken in 1936. The bridge is used by road and railway transport (road number 122 and the the Tábor-Bechyne railway line 202).
Crazy and eclectic mixture of architectonic styles (neo-Rennaisance, Art-Deco, neo-Gothic, Classicism...), usnusual use of noncompatible shapes, lines and materials, funny mural, stone statue of Our Lady on the front facade - it is Pštrossova vila (Pštross Villa) in Bechyne, currently a small luxury family hotel.
