Puente de España

About

The Puente de España (lit. 'Bridge of Spain') was a bridge that spanned the Pasig River in the Philippines, connecting the areas of Intramuros and Binondo, on Calle Nueva (now E.T. Yuchengco St) with central Manila. The span was the oldest established in the country before it was damaged by a flood in 1914. The bridge was replaced by the Jones Bridge, constructed from 1919 to 1921, located one block downriver from Puente de España on Calle Rosario (now Quintin Paredes St).
