From the left bank of the Tagus River, Â a magnificent, red-painted, steel suspension structure crosses the bay and takes you straight onto shores of Lisbon. All you need to do is follow its shadow.


It’s a photograph for wanderers the world over! Looking at it, who doesn’t want to cross that bridge? It’s superb, Paula! The clarity of that shadow- I really love it. Thank you so much for thinking of me. I opened my Reader, unsuspecting, to your lovely image. Yes, I have crossed this bridge but it was not a happy occasion. One day I’ll go back 🙂 🙂 Wishing you a peaceful weekend, hon, with as much rest as you can manage. And thank you! 🙂
It is a special town. I am fond of Portuguese. Thank you, Anna.

On the left bank of the Tagus river, opposite of Lisbon there is a sculpture (huge) similar to the sculpture in Rio of Christ. That’s where I took it from. Thank you very much, Marilyn. It is nice to know that you like it.

As if the bridge itself wasn’t incredible the shadow makes it superb. Wonderful capture of one of our favorite cities in the world.

Hice un viaje a Lisboa con mis padres hace dos o tres años en verano, fuimos en coche y atravesamos este puente. Fue una impresión maravillosa: la anchura del rÃo, la luz del sol que se reflejaba en el agua, las dimensiones del puente y la estatua del Cristo Rei.
Tu post me ha traÃdo muy buenos recuerdos Paula! 🙂
Gracias e igualmente!

A lovely view and a great shadow – the bridge looks very similar to the Golden Gate bridge.

I’m doing well but as is usual my problem is work consumes too much time leaving little time or energy for what I really love to do. When I do have time I make sure to go to your blog! Have a great day
