Bridge of Isabel II

The Bridge of Isabel II is a stone arch bridge in Imus that crosses a waterway using stone and concrete materials. The structure shows typical features from the 1800s with modern materials added during repairs over time.

The bridge was built in the mid-1800s as Spain expanded its infrastructure across the Philippines. It served as part of a larger effort to improve transportation links in the region.

The bridge carries the name of a Spanish queen, marking the era when this region was under European rule. Visitors can see how that past lives on in the structure itself.

The bridge remains in active use as a road crossing and connects different parts of Imus. Visitors can walk across it or stop nearby to observe how it functions as a daily transport link.

The mix of original stone elements and concrete added later shows how the bridge underwent repairs and upgrades over decades. These visible layers tell the story of how it was maintained through time.
