Santa Ifigênia Bridge

Santa Ifigênia Bridge, Steel bridge in República District, São Paulo, Brazil.

Santa Ifigênia Bridge is a steel structure that spans 225 meters, connecting older sections of downtown São Paulo to newer areas. It features a metal framework and serves as a pedestrian-only route today.

Construction finished in 1913 using 1,100 tons of iron and Art Nouveau components shipped directly from Belgium. These imported materials shaped the structure's appearance that visitors see today.

The viaduct's name comes from the Largo and Church of Santa Ifigênia it faces, and its Art Nouveau railings carry curved lines and flower-and-foliage shapes. Between the viaduct and Duque de Caxias Street, shops and small galleries sell computers, video games, phones, sound and lighting gear and musical instruments, with repair services and negotiated prices, busiest around Christmas and Children's Day.

The walkway runs from Largo São Bento, beside the São Bento metro station, to the Church of Santa Ifigênia, crossing above Prestes Maia Avenue. A staircase paved with rubber pads in Pedro Lessa Square, by the Bandeira Terminal and the Mirante do Vale building, also reaches the span. The 225-metre crossing is pedestrian-only.

In 1982 the bridge received a rainbow paint job that made it stand out in the urban landscape. This colorful treatment gave it a memorable appearance among downtown structures.
