Tavira and its Roman Bridge

It’s considered one of the ex-libris of Tavira, although it has no archaeological background, it was at the time it was built one of the main itineraries of the whole Algarve region.
The Bridge, once crossed by cars and people, was partially destroyed by a flood on the 3rd of December 1989, and restored some time later, but now just pedestrians and non-motorized vehicles are allowed.
Tavira always managed to maintain its original appearance and yet, evolve in time.

The description should read “now restricted to non-motorized vehicles”. The bridge is “pedestrians only”.
