Martin M. Miles' photos with the keyword: Ponte de Lima

This is, what the small town got the name from - the "Ponte de Lima". The bridge over the river Lima is much older than the town itself. I was told, that Portugal has the most "antique bridges" of all countries in Europe - and this is one of them, even one of the really big ones, crossing the river in 16 arches. The Romans built the first bridge here around 100aC and the foundations of the bridge, we can walk over today - are still the original ones.
