Bridge of Sighs

This is a great area to see street art. You can literally walk around and find pieces and walk further and find more. Stop and ask a local to point you in the right direction for more and you can walk for hours, discovering more and more. I didn't take a tour, but there are plenty available. I don't think they're necessary, as it's easy to find pieces everywhere within a few miles of this location, heading away from the sea.

Cute story behind this quaint old bridge. Story has it that while crossing the bridge, you hold your breath and think of a wish.

It's really fun to watch the kids do it.

Barranco!
This was a fantastic little place that I was introduced to. There were a lot of shops and restaurants to explore in the area. There were also a lot of local artists that were selling their products.
Don't be afraid to walk around the area because there is so much to discover.
I noticed the local municipalities have staff members who are constantly working on keeping the area clean. Workers were everywhere sweeping the walkways and picking up any debris left by tourists.
We walked through bridge and made our wishes.
We tried salchipapa and the Pan con chicharron from El Chinito 😋

Beautiful for sunset photos. Plan on spending a leisurely 30-60 min enjoying the park, murals and views

Beautiful and historic location in Lima. One of the better places for a photo in Lima. Good shops and restaurants nearby.

It’s an absolutely nice place to walk around.
There is a lot of mural paintings on the walls and under the bridge .
.
There’s always something interesting going around on the walkways under the bridge.
Also, it’s a good view point to see the beach .

There is also a lot of street shops, selling snacks and fresh, coconut water, etc. on the sides
.
There is also a lot of excellent restaurants in walkable distance us near this place .

nice afternoon to share in the mirage of locals and tourists making their abouts

Lots of little shops and carts in the area. Great place to hang out and sit in the shade on either side. Good thing the bridge is there or it would be a long hike down then back up.

Que bonito lugar y tan romántico! Very special and beautiful place. The best view is from the hilltop instead of the bridge which can be crowded at times. Great opportunity to see girls dressed for their quinceañera like beautiful dolls taking photos with family.

Beautiful place, the area is really nice to take a walk or have a night out, it's a very bohemian neighborhood. There is a good amount of restaurants and clubs to visit if you like to party or drink with friends

The 33-meter Puente de los Suspiros (1876) or Bridge of Signs is a focal point of the upscale Barranco district of Lima, Perú, connecting the two sides of a ravine. The wooden bridge is one of Lima's most romantic spots. A local legend claims that anyone crossing the bridge without breathing will have their loves fulfilled.

The bridge is located right in the heart of the touristic Barranco area, and the view from the bridge is very nice. Visitors can take the stairs from the bridge to go down to the alley, which will eventually connects to the coastline and additional stairs to the beach. Highly recommend!

Cute little bridge with pathways and ocean views. The church appears to be abandoned but they maintain the entrance. Lots of dog walkers and couples come here. There are plenty of bars and restaurants in the area and within walking distance. Enjoy!

You are supposed to hold your breath and cross to the other side, making a wish. If you make it without breathing, your wish will be granted. There were so many people on the bridge, I had to wind my way through them, and didn't manage to cross without taking a breath. Even so, highly recommend coming here and taking a walk down to the ocean.

Art and fine craftmanship offered throughout this area. Easy walk to the beach and dining available with some sunset views.

Very cool place. Very lively atmosphere. The pathway also takes you to the coastline and that's where we went for a nice romantic walk. They have a lot of restaurants/bars around.

Beautiful views! The bridge itself isn’t anything monumental, BUT the area is! It’s a nice place to walk around and take in the views, grab something to eat, and maybe buy some artisanal items from locals. A must see if you’re visiting Lima. Next to the bridge are also padlocks that partners can add to signify their love. Fun myth: if you make a wish and then cross the bridge while holding your bridge it will come true!

Make a wish, cross the bridge holding your breath

The most amazing place in the world, love it so much

Not too sure about the bridge, but was fascinated with the bird life, plant life and murals - and view out to sea. Also had good company, so a contented wander around this part of town. The architecture and Turkey vultures just add to what is a pleasant area - with bars, galleries and other buildings of interest nearby.
