It’s one of most beautiful locations in Porto hence a must visit. Take a walk on the bridge and do a cable car, costs €6 per ticket and have a nice walk along the river with plenty of options to eat and drink. You can come back through the cable car by buying a return ticket for €9. It becomes really beautiful during the sunset time.

(Translated by Google) The D. Luís I Bridge is an icon of architecture, engineering and history for Oporto, integrating one of the most emblematic landscapes of the region, where crossing the Douro River is a pleasure to enjoy the panoramic view, being a must see. either being on top of it to see the surrounding landscape, or to be around seeing its magnitude. After crossing the bridge, in any direction, take the opportunity to walk down from the Porto side to the Cais da Ribeira, passing through its streets, slopes and lanes, and in the same way on the Gaia side go down to the pier, and take the opportunity to climb and get off the cable car. All the attractions complement each other, incredible. (Original) A Ponte D. Luís I é para O Porto um ícone da arquitetura, engenharia e história, integrando uma das paisagens mais emblemáticas da região, onde a travessia do Rio Douro é um prazer para se apreciar a vista panorâmica, sendo imperdível a sua contemplação, seja estando em cima dela para ver a paisagem ao redor, ou para estar ao redor vendo a sua magnitude. Após atravessar a Ponte, em qualquer sentido, aproveite para descer a pé do lado do Porto até o Cais da Ribeira, passando por suas ruas, ladeiras e travessas, e do mesmo modo do lado de Gaia desça até o cais, e aproveite para subir e descer de Teleférico. Todas as atrações se complementam, incrível.

This is another great piece of architecture in Porto and a definitive must-see and do. If you want to cross the river Douro, then this is a great way to do so. Be it on the lower level or on the top level. For the amazing city views of course you should head to the top. There are some cable-cars passing the bridge. But not very frequently, so there's a lot of space, even though full with visitors. There's always a gap to be found to take in the views or to take some pics. At its construction, its 172 metres span was the longest of its type in the world. The construction was to be administered by Théophile Seyrig, a disciple of Gustave Eiffel. It was inaugurated on October 31st, 1886. There are many reasons to come to this bridge. The city views, the river Douro views. Or for the bridge itself and its stunning architecture and history.

The bridge itself is a beautiful structure. You can get great views of Porto and the Ribeira as well as the sunset from here. The tram also goes over here as well. Well worth a visit.

Amazing views from the bridge, it's also a great place to catch the sunset. Liked it so much, we went there twice and walked on the lower and upper levels. You can also watch people jumping off the bridge and you get to enjoy lovely music from buskers. The bridge itself is lovely.

A must see if you visit the city of Porto. This old bridge offers you a Fantastic view of this city full of history and amazing buildings. The bridge is free to visit, so no excuse not to go there. If you are afraid of heights there is also the possibility to go downstairs and take the lower bridge crossing. Of course the upper one gives you the best view of the city.

It's a must visit place in Porto, and as a pedestrian crossing the top level with trams and sidewalks. On either side and especially to the south you can walk to viewing points to look back and marvel at the engineering, design and beauty of the bridge. From the top of the bridge, you can get good views of Porto, the south and the Douro river that separates them. The bottom level is currently closed off to cars, and pedestrians are directed to one way lanes to cross that have limited areas of viewing.

This is one of the best places to go while visiting Porto. It gives amazing views over the river and the city. It has 2 levels where you can cross it, i would recommend you to try both upper and lower levels because they are different experiences. Try to be there at sunset time because the view is magical. I would return for sure.

(Translated by Google) Porto night view from the bridge across the Douro River in Porto (Original) 포르투의 도우루강을 가로지르는 다리위에서 보는 포르투야경

This is the most beautiful attraction in Porto. When you walk along the top of the bridge, the height seems prohibitive, the view of the city on the river and the trams that rush past is wonderful. The only moment the bridge is partially under reconstruction now, and almost half of the lower part is covered with building films.

This is a double-deck metal arch brige over Douro river between downtown Ribeira distrct and Vila Nova de Gaia. Constructed between 1881 and 1886, it has 172 meters span and the longest one in the world at that time. The chief architect is Gustave Eiffel, yes, the same guy built Eiffel Tower in Paris. The bridge is now a cultural heritage of Portugal and a must see if you travel to Porto. The bridge was named after the king of Portugal, Luis I. One kilometers away, a neighbouring bridge (Dona Maria Pia bridge) was named to honor his queen. You can walk on both upper and lower decks of the bridge: The lower deck can be easily accessed from the river bank. It is shared by both pedestrian and cars. The view is actually better than the upper deck. The upper deck can be accessed by either a long stairs over the river bank or the cable car (4 euro one way, 6 euro both ways). There are trams running over the upper deck. No other motor traffic is allowed on upper deck. There are lots of cafes and restaurant around the river banks, some of them are tourist traps, others are actually pretty good. In addition, the one hour river cruise is wonderful if you take it during sunset time.

Such a great walk amazing vibes and of course the view. Sun sets could be great to watch but it was foggy I wasn’t lucky enough to experience it but none the less the river side view is amazing. You can watch both sides of the river, the cable cars and the Serra monastery it’s beautiful.

Luis I is the most famous bridge of Porto. Its definitely worth a walk across. You can take the funicular up there or for the more active people, there are the stairs of course. This place is really good to observe all of Porto and a classic spot to see the sunset.

The views from the bridge and around are amazing. The top has the metro going over and by foot and below another bridge for cars and by foot. Quickest connections across the river - river taxi requires a bit of a wait unless you time your arrival perfectly.

One the best bridges and locations in Porto!! While on the bridge, you can of course walk through it. Metros go past you but it’s pretty cool to walk on it. But the real beauty comes from when you look at the bridge from a view point. It is majestic and tall! At some point while walking through the bridge, I peeked over and at the water below and I got scared. It’s so high up! Such a gorgeous bridge. You can also take the cable car from one side of the bridge, which rides along one of the river banks. Didn’t think it was worth it to be honest, but you can give it a shot.

Nice point of view on the city. You can walk either on the top or bottom part. There are sometimes people playing music on the bottom part during the day. A nice place to stop. The top park has the tram tracks on it but you can still walk. Just be careful when the roll by!

Beautiful bridge connecting both river sides and providing beautiful views over Douro river and the river banks. You can take a tram over this bridge too but that is not necessary as one way will take you 15-20 minutes if you stop a lot to take pictures. Taking a walk over this bridge and the views of it is a must do in Porto!

A visit to porto is not complete without crossing this amazing bridge both ways , we crossed the top to get to the other side, than after a lovely lunch and tastings at the market, we crossed along the bottom, all and all quite easy walking, a fun day out.

Lovely city 😍 Deserve to be visited. Nice architecture, people are welcoming and this bridge is awesome. Impressive by its material, the shape. You’ve to walk on it and find out about the other part. Many restaurants. 😃

Historical, Amazing, Marvelous and all the adjectives one can think off. The experience is amazing and wonderful. I think it's the Porto's no.1 attraction. Tourist must experience the sunset under the Bridge and above it. And the metro passing, is also breath taking feel. Nice people, lively culture, friendly people. Feels like home sweet home.

This is by far the best thing to watch in the entire city. The sheer size of it just blew my mind. It's definitely worth to visit both levels. The top one because of the lack of any special safety (glass, bariers ... etc.) enables you to look straight down which gives you the shivers. Definitely a must see.

nice place for a view of the city!

(Translated by Google) It is a very unique and special bridge (Original) Es un puente muy singular y especial

(Translated by Google) The whole city is impressive but the area of ​​the Don Luis I bridge is special. We will return whenever we can. The only downside is mass tourism, which is inevitable in a city like Porto. (Original) Toda la ciudad es impresionante pero la zona del puente Don Luis I es especial. Volveremos siempre que podamos. La unica pega es el turismo masivo que es algo inevitable en una ciudad como Porto

A wonder engineering bridge, designed by one of Eifeel pupils. There are two crossing levels. The lower one has been designed for car and people. And the upper one is for trains and people. From this level you will find the best views of Porto.

Luis I bridge landmark it’s a must seen if you’re visiting Porto! Along the bridge there’s plenty of nice bars to have a drink while watching the surrounds of Douro river. Can’t recommend enough! A lovely place to visit!

I can't find the right words to describe this charming place❤️ I recommend visiting it at sunset, the scenery is truly amazing and it will be engraved in the memory forever❤️

A beautiful walk along the bridge. Such a gorgeous view with scenery to match. Well built and kept quite clean. It was quite windy when we went and it was a strong wind so can be a bit daunting but otherwise a completely fun experience.

One of the best Bridges I visited on my City trips. The view is Amazing almost breathtaking. I have seen so many great Sunsets from this Bridge.

Porto. Surely Wes Anderson has taken many of his cues from this place. Stunning city. The Port Wine signs along the river. The fresh seafood. The meandering tiled streets. Brilliant.

One of the most beautiful sites in Porto, Portugal, is walking this bridge as the evening lights if the city come on. The river is beautiful, it's an active, vibrant area, and the city provides a remarkable background. Don't miss it!

A must when in Porto and too be honest you can’t miss it! Impressive bridge that provides lots of good photo opportunities. Good views of the river from the top level which also has trams passing over. The lower level currenty has some construction work going on, however pedestrians are still able to cross through narrow walkways.

Fantastic architecture striking views. With this two level bridge. Personally i love the fact the metro passes along the same path as the pedestrians. In a world gone crazy with health and safety common sense still exists in some places.

Great views both day and night. It’s a lot less crowded at night even though the view is equally impressive, but it still wasn’t too busy around noon. Walking along the top and the bottom levels is a must. You can also view the Luís I from the other bridges.

Nice old bridge were the train and tourists can walk / drive. At night and by day you have a great view on old town Porto. In night times the bridge is illuminated and invites for a perfect night view on Porto.

A very nice bridge. You can get around on foot or by public transport. The views are great. Lots to see on the old town side, on the other side e.g. port wine cellars, where there are tours. A short cable car runs over the cellars.

A spectacular breathtaking view of Porto. Highly recommend to visit. You can cross the bridge by walking or taking cable car ride across the river.

Such a beautiful bridge and amazing sunsets. It’s funny at the afternoon some kids will be jumping into the river and this is very nice to watch Please do not jump in the morning as the river is usually shallower than the afternoon. It’s very dangerous to jump in the morning

The bridge in my opinion is a simbol of Porto. It's incredible. It's huge and weightless. It was built by Eiffel's disciple. Actually it reminds the Eiffel tower and looks gorgeous. You must walk the bridge and enjoy the views.

Wonderful city. Wonderful people. THE place to go if you like port! Red white & pink

One of the best place to visit porto. Probably the main point

As you can see on the pictures below, the sunset is one of the best romantic atmosphere, it is lovely for pares. If you do your sightseeing tour, you should visit the bridge on top or either under the bridge, you have two ways to across the bridge. There are a lot of restaurants around the river, either ship tours which is not expensive. You will get a remind back, if you left the city.

Nice bridge. Multiple ways to get up to both sides. Very high but you will survive even if you don’t like heights. The bridge bellow make for easy trips for the way back from exploring either side. Trams passing are cool. So worth doing during the day for the view and at night for the experience with the lights safely guiding your way. :)

We had a nice walk and saw a couple of interesting vendors among perhaps 50 during the pandemic period. Many were selling junk but a few had authentic collectibles. We enjoyed a simple but delicious meal from one of the local cafes.

Fabulosa ponte. Imperdível circular nos dois tabuleiros

What a bridge. Just alone the way it's constructed is majestic and breathtaking. When you come below it becomes a beautiful mesh of steel rods and just feels amazing. The bridge alone is constructed as a two level transporter, so you can cross from the lower parts of the city as well as the higher. With that, this architectural piece is just a magnet for photographers and other artists who wish to make something out of it. Even Parkour people climb it and jump around from time to time.

Great spot for walking, drinking wine and watching sunset. Pretty high. On the top there is a metro track. On the bottom there is a road for cars. You can walk on both segments but i recommend the higher one because of the amazing views.

What a majestic and almost infinite experience, the more you walk in the more you will experience nicer and hidden sides of this city that blends the old with the new. You will see new angles every 50 steps which will give you an overall and great image of this city's river and coast

A must see landmark if you visit this beautiful city! There are a lot of local bars and restaurants with a fantastic view of the bridge! Day and night the view is incredible.

This place is purely wonderful. It literally brings you peace if you sit down at the bottom of the bridge to enjoy the view.

The view of the bridge alongside the glowing castle is mesmerizing.

Very interesting place! It is possible to identify historical traits in the construction, which is very cool!

Porto is one of my favourite cities in Portugal. It is an accessible city, full of atmosphere and the people are friendly.

The bridge is wonderful, both to be seen along the banks of the Douro and from the bridge itself which has 2 levels. The upper one, where the metro passes, has a unique view of Porto, to do. I suggest crossing it at both the upper and lower level to see the various perspectives. It also has a connection with the Eiffel Tower. To try

What a gorgeous piece of architecture and infrastructure. Upper level is car-free, as all cities should be. There is a lift on the north side, the ferry on the south side is fairly expensive (6€!) and the view from the ferry is nothing to write home about.

Impressive bridge that provides lots of good photo opportunities. Good views of the river from the top level which also has trams passing over. The lower level currenty has some construction work going on, however pedestrians are still able to cross through narrow walkways.

This place looks much nicer than the Eiffel Tower, and this one is also for free! One of the nicest attractions in Porto and the whole country! You can't visit Porto without visiting this amazing looking bridge. It's being renovated at the moment, but that does not interfere with it's magic. AMAZING SCENERY!

Amazing! What a view and a walk… What else can I say, it’s impressive from up there! Beware, the Atlantic wind can be very cold :)

Climbing on top of this bridge will cost you 0 euros. It's definitely worthy 🙂 Beautyful metal structure.

Amazing place to view the sunset along with thousands of others. A highlight of my Porto trip

The most fascinating view over Porto and the best place to see the sunset

Best place to make Nice shots and photo of Porto .

Nro.1 place to walk in Porto :) Excellent view!

A stunning bridge with breathtaking view from the top level.

One of the most iconic places of the city. if you don’t visit it, you’ve not been in a Porto. I recommend to visit it at least two times: in the early morning when nobody there and in the evening when the sunset comes. Be careful of the trams out there :)

Come here during the day for a jog and see the bird eye view of Porto. At night came back and there are a big crowd to see the lights on the river bank

You cannot miss the famous Luis Bridge when you are in Porto, Its their icon. This place is bustling with life, there are lots of people and sunshine. I enjoy sitting by the river bank watching people and the world goes by.

Absolutely amazing bridge. Spectacular construction, great views. It's totally worth having a walk through the bridge. The only downside is the overwhelming crowds all over Porto, including the bridge (mid June).

Beautiful place to watch the sun set. crowded with families and young kids, atmosphere and music playing in the background is really nice as well. recommended for your trip to porto

Great views of the city from the top of this bridge! A must visit in Porto, giving easy access to more great views from Vila Nova de Gaia. Not difficult to get here, metro is fast and it’s a few minutes walk from nearby attractions. The bottom of the bridge is also quite nice and a direct walk if you’re in Ribeira Square/the river walk.

stunning bridge! Was surprised how high it is and that it is so accessible for pedestrians. I definitely recommend you’re coming at night, but also gave perfect view points for the city of porto and great enjoyment. Just be aware of the tram that comes every five minutes so you don’t get stuck under it haha

What a view! This steel construction is just amazing. We took a train/tram line D to get over the bridge and walked across in the opposite direction. You can walk using entire width of the bridge and averse few minutes move to the side to let the tram go. Enjoy the landscape and breathtaking view over Douro River and picturesque Porto. Equally impressive during the day and the evening. A must do when you visit Porto.

This is a must when you are in Porto. It has two layers. One is up to the top you can go and walk of which I did not but the one close to the river I walked many times. Lovely sights of the city. Strongly recommended.

Beautiful bridge with gorgeous view of Douro River, we enjoyed walking to the other side where you can have a picnic, listen to the music, and feel the good vibes. Take a light jacket with you because the weather changes many times a day, it gets windy sometimes at Riverside.

If you come to Porto, you must walk on this bridge, even if you are like me (extremely scared of heights). And please, try to go on the both levels and take your time to enjoy. We did this at the sunset and we had the most amazing landscapes with Porto, Gaia and Duero River. Check the photos for proof. :)

Definitely should be a part of your Porto tour. Indeed, next time I'll stay on that side of the bridge... a little less busy & congested than downtown, and the views & access to port distilleries really gave the city a better vibe. Beautiful architecture to boot.

This bridge. It’s just stunning. Its like the centre piece in an art gallery. It ties the city together. Quite literally. There is no path by it. You will cross it a lot, either on food or in the Metro. And you’ll love it. What a mere steel structure can conjure up is simply amazing. Can’t miss in any list in Porto. 100% Full recommendation! 👌🏽🤩

So much to see and do around this area, both on the Porto side and the Gaia side. There are tons of restaurants and crafts, as well as extremely talented street performers; mainly restaurants on Porto side, and wineries with free tastings on Gaia side. Rich with history, this is easily the hub of Porto's tourism center as many of the water activities start here. A morning run or walk, is the best way to take in the beautiful views undisturbed.

Must visit place, easy to walk on multiple levels and the crowds make it entertaining. It is indeed an engineering marvel. The view of the river and banks is breathtaking from the bridge. At the lower level the buses, cars, bicycles and pedestrians travel through. At the upper level the trams, bicycles and pedestrians travel through. You can travel from one end of the bridge at the lower level to the other side and then take the cable car option to go to the upper level. There are so many options but trying all is fun and you get to see different views, sights and crowds

Beautiful bridge. Walk from above and below decks. Perfect during mornings and evenings. It's also really beautiful during sunset. I loved walking on the bridge upper deck as the metro trains moved past us.

A very cool place and a must visit if you are in Porto. Should totally cross from one side to the other. The road to get here can be a bit complicated but take it easy and enjoy. Can really take great pictures from here if the weather is nice. Also, it is very close to la Ribeira, where you can sit and have a drink while you enjoy the view.

Very vibrant and picturesque area. Easily walkable on the bridge and both sides of the river. Crowded and many shops as well as street vendors selling crafts on the streets.

Amazing landmark in the middle of Porto - a must do. You can walk across to Gaia on either the lower level or up above with the best views over both sides of the river. Places to have food and sights are on both sides of the bridge and you can enjoy the best sunsets. Not for you if you don't like crowds 😉

Fabulous walking bridge with 2 levels. Incredible views of Porto from the top down the river. The top has rails for the tram so pay attention. The lower level allows cars to cross. Spectacular bridge. Must see when in Porto. At the far end is the Morro garden
