🇺🇸 Kentucky | Louisville Citywalk Guide 🌉🌿

(Where Ohio River whispers history & bridges turn into time machines!) 🌉 Big Four Bridge (1895) 📍 *1101 River Rd, Louisville, KY 40202* Steel-truss relic of America’s industrial golden age (same era as China’s Dandong Broken Bridge!). 770m walk (~1hr) with panoramic Ohio River views—Indiana’s skyline pales vs Louisville’s charm. Fun Fact: Named after the "Big Four" railroads (Cleveland, Chicago, Cincinnati & St. Louis). Sunset Tip: Grab BBQ at Pig Beach (riverside seats + pulled pork bliss!). 🌿 Waterfront Botanical Gardens 🚗 *10-min drive from bridge* Japanese-inspired serenity with memorial plaques ("Time’s ephemerality etched in brass"). Local ritual: White Kentuckians honor loved ones via donated benches/lamps. #Kentucky #Louisville #HiddenHistory
