Built in 1898 to reach the Ojuela Goldmine, Puente De Ojuela now draws visitors. This 318 meter suspension bridge spans a stark gorge in Durango, designed by the Roebling brothers of Brooklyn Bridge fame.
Restored for safety, it frames dramatic desert vistas and abandoned shafts. A nearby ghost town deepens the historic mood for explorers.
