Python Bridge Overview

Python Bridge (High Bridge), one of Amsterdam's most famous engineering marvels, is well worth a visit for its grandeur and surrounding beauty. It crosses a 90-meter-long waterway that connects Borneo Island with the Sporenburg peninsula. Installed in 2001, the bridge resembles a massive, winding red python and won the International Footbridge Award the following year, making it a popular tourist attraction in Amsterdam.

Officially known as High Bridge, the Python Bridge is called so for its unusual wavy shape resembling a moving python and is a center of attention for its outstanding design and brilliant red color. It connects Sporenburg to Borneo Island over a 90-meter canal in Amsterdam's Eastern Docklands, and it is suitable for both bikers and pedestrians. The bridge's enigmatic shape actually helps taller ships pass underneath.

This magnificent award-winning bridge, designed by Adriaan Geuze, was inaugurated in 2001 and added a high-tech edge to the attractiveness of the surroundings. The bridge has beautiful railings with countless scarlet threads that add to the appeal of the design. It is located in a peaceful neighborhood, giving visitors the opportunity to relax in a serene environment away from the rush and bustle of the city. The bridge quickly rose to the top of many Amsterdam excursion itineraries, attracting not just interested tourists but also international workers to study the design.
