Spanning the Tagus River, this dramatic suspension bridge links Lisbon with the municipality of Almada. Inaugurated in 1966, it shares an iconic terracotta-red hue and truss engineering with the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. The upper deck carries six lanes of vehicle traffic while the lower deck accommodates passenger trains, creating a cinematic focal point visible from scenic waterfront promenades across the capital.

Highlights

  • Iconic red suspension bridge spanning over 2.2 kilometers across the Tagus River
  • Striking architectural resemblance to San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge
  • Panoramic views from Belém promenades and nearby hilltop viewpoints
