The longest cable-stayed bridge in Europe withstands the 4.5 times more powerful earthquake and winds up to 250 km/h.

This cable-stayed bridge, the longest in Europe after the Crimean bridge, was designed to take account of the Earth's curvature and can withstand an earthquake 4.5 times more powerful than that of 1755 and winds of up to 250 km/h. Inaugurated just before the 1998 Universal Exhibition, after three years of construction work, it spans the Tagus d'Oriente to the south and the municipalities of Montijo and Alcochete. Designed by French engineer Jean Vassord, this seemingly endless motorway viaduct is 17.2 km long and almost 150 m above the Tagus.

Impressionnant !!!
La vue du pont depuis la terre ferme est impressionnante, mais je l'ai d'autant plus aimée que nous avons pris de magnifiques photos de ce pont spectaculaire par sa longueur depuis les télécabines. A voir dès qu'on sort de l'oceonario.

Très long pont
Un très long pont sur l eau. Je vous conseille de monter dans les télécabines proches de l aquarium de Lisbonne pour l admirer en prenant de la hauteur.

Pont un peu excentré par rapport aux visites à faire dans le centre donc je n'ai pas pu le voir de très près. Mais il est impressionnant de voir ce pont gigantesque d'en haut.
