Siti Nurbaya Bridge, Bridge and scenic viewpoint in Padang, Indonesia.

The 156-meter-long bridge spans across Batang Arau River, connecting South Padang to the city center with lamp-lined walkways and viewing areas.

Constructed in 1995 and inaugurated in 2002, the bridge welcomed cast members from the movie adaptation of the classic Indonesian novel Siti Nurbaya.

The bridge name originates from a classic Indonesian novel about forced marriage and love, reflecting traditional Minang cultural narratives.

Located at Nipah Street, the bridge remains open 24 hours daily and attracts numerous food vendors during evening hours.

From the bridge platform, visitors can observe passing boats, mountain silhouettes, and local fishermen working along the Batang Arau River.
