Built in 1966 and spanning 500 feet across the Rio Grande river running 650 feet below, the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge is a tourist attraction outside Taos, New Mexico. The second highest cantilever bridge in the United States, it has been featured in several films, including Natural Born Killers, Twins and She's Having a Baby. It is a part of U.S. Route 64.

[edit] Trivia

The sight of this bridge in the movie Twins is out of sequence. The Benedict brothers were traveling from Los Angeles to Santa Fe, where the scientific lab was, and would have reached Santa Fe about an hour before reaching the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge.
