Puente Roto

A very nice stone bridge that used to cross the river. The river took it down twice and it was rebuilt. However, the third time the river took it down, they decided not to rebuild the crossing. Now it sits there unfinished as a reminder of the power of the river when it rises

One of many bridges in Central Cuenca that gained notoriety a a restored “broken incomplete” structure. Originally built in the mid-1800s, it connected the upper and lower areas of the city separated by Tomebamba River. A century later in 1950, the river flooded, taking away half of the bridge. Structural support was later added to the standing structure to what remains today. It became a landmark upon Cuenca’s designation as UNESCO World Heritage Site.

It is a bridge structure that 2/3 of it was taken down by the river Tomebamba. What is left of the structure is well maintained and it's a good place to take photos.

It's a bridge but very beautiful spot to take pictures on a Sunny day with the family or friends. Take in the view and breathe in the fresh air its surreal. I went there to take asthetic pictures. You can walk down the stairs and reach the boardwalk to a small river diving the two sides. There is a church nearby and a few restuarants and tourist atractions.

A nice place to visit to get a little history. The bridge, although never rebuilt, is accessible up to the point it 'breaks'. Worth a visit for photo op.

Awesome collection of art for sale during the fiesta for the anniversary of the city.

Nice place for the view Shame that the Arches are tagged with Graffiti and smells a bit like piss Wish that the city would take care of this landmark

Beautiful scenery along Tomebamba river, nice walk ways along the river, with bicycle paths, The Broken Bridge Bistro has a terrace with a great view of the river to sit have a meal or a drink and soak in all the surroundings and take a walk along the river.
