Ponte Eiffel - Eiffel Bridge

This bridge is at the end of Avenida Marginal, above the marina and was built in 1878 by the Eiffel house to replace an old wooden bridge, linking Viana with the Parish of Darque. At 600 meters long over the river Lima, it's an engineering work in iron that weighs over 2 tons and sits on 9 pillars hewn more than 20 meters deep. It has two levels, one for traffic and one for the railway line; pedestrian access is via a metal staircase.
