Beautiful car and beautiful city !
Bridge was designed by Gustave Eiffel, I believe.
We walked the top level of the bridge one evening after a visit to the Port wineries on the south side. We were high !!!
Thanks for the great memory.

That's not the Eiffel bridge but was designed by someone who worked for Eiffel and worked on the Eiffel Bridge a few year earlier which is just upstream

The Eiffel bridge has no lower deck
