The world's longest pedestrian suspension bridge, the 516 Arouca, has been built in Portugal.

The new bridge is named after how long it is in meters. It has been built in the Arouca UNESCO Global Geopark, an hour's drive southeast of the city of Porto.

The 516 Arouca's walkway is about a meter wide, and made with metal grates that let visitors see the Paiva River 176 meters below them as they cross. A video of the bridge shows it moving from side to side as people walk across it.

The Arouca UNESCO Global Geopark has rocks that are hundreds of millions of years old, from a time when the area was part of a huge continent called Gondwana. The area also offers many outdoor activities in its mountains and rivers.

It will cost about $14 to cross the 516 Arouca, but just under $12 for students and people over 65. Children under 6 will not be allowed on the bridge. People who live in Arouca, however, will be able to use it for free if they have a resident card.

Work on building the 516 Arouca began in 2017. It was finished in July 2020, but an opening date has not been decided.

The new bridge has taken the record for world's longest pedestrian suspension bridge from the Charles Kuonen Suspension Bridge in Switzerland. The Swiss bridge is 494 meters long and free to cross. It opened in 2017
