Ponte da Ribeira da Carpinteira

Designed to stand 52 meters high and 220 meters long, it aims to facilitate mobility and reduce the distance between the Penedos Altos neighborhood and the city center. This work by architect Carrilho Graça, inaugurated in 2009, deserves to be properly appreciated, having already received several awards worldwide. It features a zigzag design and its landscape integration is remarkable.
