The Experiência Pilar 7 in Avenida da Índia, is to open to the public on International Tourism Day.

Just like at other bridges round the world, such as Golden Gate Bridge, in San Francisco, Harbour Bridge, in Sydney and Tower Bridge, in London, the idea is to be able to explain to people the history and purpose of the bridge and what it is like inside, the general director of the Lisbon tourist office, Vítor Costa, said on Friday.

Tickets will vary between four and six euros depending on ages and discounts.
