Portugal View on Ponte Luís Bridge, Porto

  • Please log in or sign up for free to see the GPS coordinates & weather for this photo spot
The Ponte Luís I Bridge in Porto is an iconic double-deck iron arch bridge, designed by the engineer Gustave Eiffel. Spanning the Douro River, it connects the cities of Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia. The upper deck offers stunning panoramic views of the historic Porto skyline and the picturesque harbor, known for its vibrant riverside cafés and colorful buildings. The harbor itself is a lively hub, lined with traditional Rabelo boats, wine cellars, and bustling markets, making it a perfect spot to enjoy the beauty and charm of this enchanting city.

Photography Tips

If you want to do a long exposure to soften the water, it's usually a good idea to take an additional short exposure just for the moving parts in the image which in this case would be the boats in the foreground. Merging both photos helps to get soft water while having a sharp foreground element in your photo.
