The Iconic Eduardo Villena Rey Bridge: A Marvel of Engineering in Miraflores

Getting There

• Bus

  From your location in Lima, walk to the nearest main road and find a bus stop. Look for buses heading towards 'Miraflores' or 'Larcomar.' Once on the bus, pay attention to the stops and ask the driver to notify you when you reach the Malecón de la Reserva. After approximately 30-40 minutes, get off at the stop closest to the Malecón, which should be near the intersection with Avenida José Larco. From there, walk towards the coastline, and you will see Puente Eduardo Villena Rey ahead.

• Metro

  Make your way to the nearest Metro station in Lima (Line 1). Board the train heading towards 'Pajaritos.' Get off at the 'Estación Ayacucho' stop. Once you exit the metro station, take a taxi or an Uber to Malecón de la Reserva, which is approximately a 10-minute ride. You can also opt to walk towards the coast, which will take about 20-25 minutes. Follow the road signs towards the Malecón, and you will find Puente Eduardo Villena Rey along the scenic route.

• Walking

  If you're staying in the Miraflores area, Puente Eduardo Villena Rey is easily accessible by foot. Simply walk towards the coast along Avenida José Larco. Once you reach the Malecón de la Reserva, continue walking westward until you see the bridge. It should take about 15-20 minutes depending on your starting point in Miraflores.

• Taxi or Rideshare

  You can easily hail a taxi or use a rideshare app like Uber. Simply enter 'Puente Eduardo Villena Rey' or 'Malecón de la Reserva, Miraflores' as your destination.
