The bridge exchanges narrow streets for the breadth of the Miño. Roman origins and later rebuilding combine here: today's silhouette does not belong to one period. Study the main arch and the relationship between banks from a safe position. Arrange this as an extension beyond the old town, allowing time to return; riverside paths depend on river conditions and local access signs.
