Tips
The bridge is notable for its six curvilinear polygonal arches, with a total length of 232 metres. In 1973, it was named after Admiral Sarmento Rodrigues, a prominent Portuguese politician and military man. The structure is an outstanding example of bridge engineering of the period and remains an important landmark in the region.

The bridge connects Spain and Portugal. Thanks to the EU you can easily walk across it 🙂
