The Vasco da Gama Bridge is a cable-stayed bridge that spans the Tagus River in Lisbon, Portugal. It is one of the longest bridges in Europe, with a total length of 17.2 kilometers (10.7 miles). The bridge was opened to the public in 1998 and was named after the famous Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama, who was the first European to reach India by sea. The bridge provides an important transportation link between the north and south of Portugal and has become an iconic symbol of the city of Lisbon.
