#Porto #Portugal #bridge #ponte

A ponte de D. Luiz I foi construída, no final do século XIX, sobre o rio Douro, ligando a cidade do Porto a Vila Nova de Gaia. A ponte tem dois tabuleiros. No superior circula uma linha de Metro do Porto e no inferior circulam viaturas e pedestres. Vale a pena atravessá-la a pé tanto pelo tabuleiro superior como pelo inferior. Vista magnífica sobretudo no final do dia.

The D. Luiz I bridge was built at the end of the 19th century over the Douro river, linking the city of Porto with Vila Nova de Gaia. The bridge is double-deck metal arch bridge. In the upper one runs a line of Metro do Porto and in the lower circulate vehicles and pedestrians. It is worth walking across both the top and bottom decks. Magnificent view especially at the end of the day.
