The Luis 1st Bridge is a metal arch bridge that spans the Douro River between the cities of Porto and Vila Nova
de Gaia in Portugal. At the time of construction its span of 172 m was the longest of its type in the world.
The Government held a competition for the construction of a metallic bridge over Douro River on a site that
was near to an existing bridge and would replace it. Teofilo Seyrig had already engineered the D. Maria Pia
Bridge project nearby, whilst working as a partner of Eiffel. He now took sole responsibility for the new, major
Luis first bridge. The construction was begun in 1881 and the bridge opened on 31 October 1886.

ポルトのメトロは５路線から構成されている。市の中心部では地下を、郊外では地上を走るライトレールシステムで
ある。A,B,C.E線はエスタディオ・ド・ドラゴンから出発した後、それぞれの目的地に分かれる。D線はドウロ川を
渡り、サン・ベント駅を通り、市の中心地域であるトリンダーデ駅で他の線と乗り換え出来る。ポルトの市電は]
ほとんど観光用として走行している。現在メトロが都市交通の主役を担い、バスがこれを補完している。市内各所を
見て回るのには24時間利用できる一日券が一番よい。
