The Dom Lu\u00eds I Bridge (Ponte Dom Lu\u00eds I) is the symbol of Porto, the second largest city in Portugal. It crosses the Douro River and connects Porto with the town of Vila Nova de Gaia on the other side. The bridge was opened in 1886 and named after King Lu\u00eds I. It was designed by the engineer Th\u00e9ophile Seyrig, who had worked with Gustave Eiffel. The bridge is made of iron and has two levels, or decks. When it was built, its great arch was the longest of its kind in the world. Today it is part of the Historic Centre of Porto, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cosa vedere<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

La cosa migliore da fare \u00e8 attraversare il ponte a piedi. Il ponte superiore si trova a circa 45 metri sopra il fiume ed \u00e8 utilizzato dalla metropolitana e dai pedoni. Da qui si gode di una vista mozzafiato sulle case colorate del quartiere della Ribeira, sul fiume con le sue imbarcazioni tradizionali e sulle cantine del vino di Porto di Vila Nova de Gaia. Il piano inferiore \u00e8 vicino all\u2019acqua e collega il lungofiume della Ribeira con la riva di Gaia. Sul lato di Gaia, vicino al piano superiore, \u00e8 possibile visitare il belvedere della Serra do Pilar o prendere una funivia per scendere fino al fiume. Il ponte \u00e8 particolarmente bello al tramonto e quando viene illuminato di notte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Come arrivare e informazioni pratiche<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The bridge is in the centre of Porto, a short walk from the cathedral and the Ribeira district. The upper deck can be reached on foot or by metro (line D, stations S\u00e3o Bento and Jardim do Morro). The lower deck is reached from the Ribeira waterfront. Walking across the bridge is free and possible at any time. On the upper deck, people walk next to the metro tracks, so stay on the walkway and be careful. It is a good idea to cross on the upper deck and return along the river on the lower deck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
