Dear community, it is a great pleasure for me to introduce you to a very emblematic place in this city.
This is the Ortiz Bridge.

The Ortiz Bridge is a national monument in the city of Santiago de Cali, Colombia.
It is a neoclassical pedestrian bridge that was renovated in 1945, according to the plaques.

Located in the city center and over the waters of the Cali River, the bridge is a pedestrian bridge.

El puente Ortiz es un monumento nacional de la ciudad de Santiago de Cali. Colombia.
Es un puente peatonal de arquitectura neoclásica que fue reformado en 1945, según lo leído en las placas.

Ubicado en el centro de la ciudad y sobre las aguas del río Cali.
Al entrar por el sur te encuentras un techado de vidrio tipo tragaluz, lo cual tiene información de interés referente al puente.


It has a white handrail or half-wall on its curbs, adorned at the bottom with a brown lattice design with iron.
This curb in turn forms semicircular viewing platforms.

Its floor is tiled with terracotta, resembling bricks.

At both ends, there are seats that serve as rest areas for passersby.

Each viewing platform has wrought iron structures and round flower pots. We also found commemorative plaques with some of its history, and the information is in English and Spanish.

Tiene un pasamano o medio muro en sus bordillos de color blanco, adornado en su parte inferior con un diseño de celosía de color marrón con hierro
Este bordillo a su vez forma unos miradores semicirculares

Su piso está enchapado en terracota, haciendo similitud de ladrillos.
En ambos extremos hay unos asientos que sirven de descanso para los transeúntes.

En cada mirador tiene unas estructuras en hierro forjado y unos materos redondos. También encontramos unas placas conmemorativas con algo de su historial y la información está en Inglés y Español


Looking from under the bridge, you can see the arched bases and the banks of the Cali River.
From its viewing platforms, you can see the beautiful vegetation, the Hill of the Three Crosses, and the Cali River, which this time appeared yellowish and somewhat dirty.

You can also see La Ermita Church, the old tobacco factory, and at the other end, Bolívar Square and the Cali mayor's office.

Before crossing the bridge, you will find stairs at various ends that lead you to the banks of the Cali River.

It is a splendid place to visit and learn about, thanks to its history, the views it offers, its cool climate, and its excellent location.

Español Version

Al observar la parte de abajo del puente, se logran apreciar las bases de este en forma de arco y la ribera del río Cali
Desde sus miradores se ve la hermosa vegetación, el cerro de las tres cruces, el río Cali, que esta vez se mostró de color amarillento y un poco sucio.

También se observa la iglesia La Ermita, la antigua industria tabacalera, al otro extremo la plaza Bolívar y la sede de la alcaldía de Cali.

Antes de finalizar el paso del puente, nos encontraremos unas escaleras en varios extremos que te llevan a las orillas del río Cali.

Es un espléndido lugar para visitar y conocer, por su historia, la vista que ofrece, su clima fresco y su excelente ubicación.
