Reminiscent of San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge, the Ponte 25 de Abril is the world’s 17th largest suspension bridge and connects Lisbon to everything south of the Tagus River. When it was originally constructed in 1966, the bridge was the third largest of its kind, spanning 2,277 metres with six car lanes on the upper platform and dual two-way train tracks on the bottom platform.
