Mackinac Bridge

Mackinac Bridge

The Mackinac Bridge is a giant suspension bridge that connects Michigan's Upper and Lower Peninsulas. It stretches five miles across the water where Lake Michigan meets Lake Huron.

It is famous as one of the longest suspension bridges in the world, and locals fondly call it the Mighty Mac. Once a year people are allowed to walk across it in a big holiday event.

The Mighty Mac

The bridge is so long that driving across it feels like sailing above the water between two peninsulas.
