Lonely Planet review

An extraordinary Expo 98 initiative, this 17,185m (56,380ft) long and 30m (98ft) wide bridge is Europe's longest bridge, with foundations extending 85m (279ft) below sea level. It has also been built to withstand 250kmph winds and an earthquake 4.5 times stronger than the 1755 calamity. Check it out from the fine vantage point of the Teleférico at the park.
