Parkovyi footbridge in Kyiv, Pedestrian bridge in Kyiv, Ukraine

The Parkovyi Bridge stretches 430 meters across the Dnipro River, connecting the central district with Trukhaniv Island through dedicated walking and cycling lanes.

The construction of this steel bridge began in 1956 and marked a shift in Soviet urban planning, prioritizing recreational spaces for citizens over strategic infrastructure.

The bridge functions as a meeting point where residents gather for leisure activities, photography sessions, and social interactions while admiring views of the Kyiv skyline.

Visitors access the bridge from Khreshchatyi Park or Dniprovska Embankment, with separate green lanes for pedestrians and red lanes for cyclists running along its length.

The structure rises 26 meters above the water, making it a location for rope jumping activities and offering panoramic views of the Dnipro River.
