Didnt know that Cincinnati had a bridge that was the twin of the Brooklyn bridge. The hotel we stayed at was right next to the bridge. Allowed for awesome views day and night. A very busy place on both ends. Easy access to stadiums and riverfront areas. Murals on Kentucky side along the river. Statues also to explain the history of the area Very picturesque, many photographers set up at dusk to get the perfect picture.

This is referred to as the singing bridges. We walked across it from Kentucky to Cincinnati. Great views and an easy walk. Highly-recommended!!!

Its sturdy, but freaky if youre walking across it, because it vibrates every time a car passes. Great views of the river and skyline though. Especially good view of the Reds stadium.

Lovely place to have a walk. Beautiful site seeing.You have wealth paths in each side of the bridge.Well maintained.

The inspiring history and importance of Roebling Suspension Bridge is certainly rivaled or matched by the beauty of this historic structure as well as the privilege to walk across the bridge and experience the flow of the Ohio River underneath and the magnificent sight of the Queen City of Cincinnati on one side in Ohio and the Newport and Covington cities on the other in Kentucky! Both the site by day and site by night are breathtaking!

Beautiful bridge. Connect Kentucky and Ohio. What a great scene.

This isnt just any bridge! Its a historical landmark surrounded by things to do. Parks and restaurants in Covington and Cincinnati. If the sights and sounds (just listen to the bridge itself!) arent enough, the smells from the restaurants and the excitement of the nearby stadiums are worth a walk across this bridge.

Brilliant bridge, reminds me of Tower Bridge in London.

What a great pedestrian bridge! and love this color blue

Beautiful bridge hosting iconic views of Cincinnati & Newport

An amazing place to check out and spend a bit of time. Walked from ohio to Kentucky via the bridge. On the side of the bridge was a park for families with kids. They had so much fun. Really nice adventure... a must do.

A great piece of history and a great place to be, truly mesmerizing!!

I read about this bridge in a travel book that I have so I added it to my list of things I wanted to see. I was visiting a friend and we went to Cincinnati so we decided we would check this bridge out. We ended up taking Bird’s (electric scooters) across the bridge and it was definitely worth it. The views from both sides of the bridge were awesome! Also, the bridge wasn’t super crowded so having the scooters on it wasn’t a problem. If you have some time to kill when you’re in Cincinnati or Covington, I’d definitely recommend walking, or Birding, this bride - it’s well worth it.

Prototype of the Brooklyn Bridge. Nice place to get a beautiful shot of Cincinnati!

Cincinnati side is alot nicer.

Wonderful and nice Breach. Between Kentucky and Ohio

Awesome views and very quiet evening, will come back here for sure!

One of my favorite places to sight see in Cincinnati. Fun to walk across at night from one state to another.

Great way to get your steps in for the day and get some great photos of this 19th century bridge. You can also get to see two states in less than 20 minutes.I did the loop by crossing the Clay Wade Bailey Bridge which will take you around the Bengals Stadium and back to the city area.If you have time checkout the city of Covington!

Bridge is reported closed to auto and truck traffic but open to pedestrians while nearby I-75/I-71 Brent Spence Bridge is also closed and being repaired. Brent Spence estimated reopen is Dec. 23, 2020, so expect Roebling Bridge will reopen near that date when Brent Spence reopens.

Just visiting an came down town the kids wanted to walk the bridge. It was crowd cause it was after an home baseball game. But the view was nice, the breeze was wonderful the only thing I hated was the way u came is the same way u have to go back. Only one side u walk back and forth on. But I loved the walk and we got to meet some wonderful people on the bridge.

Its like the London bridge in Cincinnati. I think it is closed for sometime on Labour day as there is fireworks show that day. But this event is a must. You can see the birds forming different formation in the sky when they fly from the bridge. Best time to visit is in evening when it is lighted up. You are allowed to walk on the bridge. Also can wave to the people taking the cruise in Ohio River.

Beautiful bridge with an awesome history.The North side of the bridge connectvwith a pleasant park.

Its historic and the feeling you get when your crossing the water and hovering over that massive amount of water is awesome.

This is my favorite place at Cincinati Area. Always feels good walking from Ohio to Kentucky and taking photos. Best place for short walk, Photography, and sightseeing. Landscape view from Kentucky side to Cincinati is so beautiful specially at night time. Parks, and Play ground for kids just entrance of the bridge. Best place to visit for family, romantic date and casual walk. It’s so beautiful and feels good when you get there.

This area is spectacular. Spend an afternoon here at Smale Park and enjoy a wonderful walk across this historic bridge. Picnic or walk to Mainstrasse for lunch.

Beautiful old bridge provides great city views.

Good bridge. No trolls under it.Allowed me access to both Cincinnati and Covington with pedestrian walkways on the outside of the bridge. Excellent views (one shown of Cincinnati) and once arrived in either city you have a number of excellent venues for entertainment, eating, or site seeing.

Its Cincinnatis most aesthetically pleasing bridge. If your a photographer local or from out of town this is the place to go. Its pretty safe 24/7

Kind of sketchy, but love the historical aspect of it, would traverse this bridge again.

The John A Roebling Suspension Bridge is an incredible bridge in both history and beauty. It took 10 years to complete. This was due to having to stop construction because of the Civil War. Thats right the Civil War. Thats 153 years of standing tall and proud. And the locals love her. They have created areas on both sides(Covington & Cincinnati) that are great for families. Parks, murals, statues, historical homes, restaurants, coffee shops, bookstores(I swear Im not exaggerating) all wait to be explored. The bridge is a giant photo op and she is photogenic. One last thing and its the most important. The area is safe. Ive been to both sides countless times in my life and never had any issues. Now go see the bridge. Shes history...shes beautiful...shes worth the time. A couple pics from Blink 2019.

Very pretty at night and very accessible

A great walk from either Kentucky it Ohio, and the views are really nice as well.

Wow! I cant stress enough on the fact how much I loved it. Designed by the same man who designed the famous Brooklyn Bridge in NY, it is an architectural wonder constructed accross the Ohio River. Plus I loved it because its much less crowded than Brooklyn Bridge and so you get much more chances of good photographs!

Great way to cross two states on foot! Parking is always easy on the Kentucky side. Seating and river views are good from the Ohio side. Do visit this during non peak holidays and then go for a drink on the Ohio side pubs. The Ohio river trail is good for walks and getting sober after that drink!

Awesome bridge architecture. Great for skyline views and pictures. Feels like a little bit of New York in Cincinnati, but I wont mention the connection, best to let you do a little research! You can enjoy a walk across this beauty any time of day or night. As always, if you found my review helpful please take a second to hit the, thanks!

I Love Sittin Down There At Night Its Beautiful When Its Lit Up

I walked across the bridge and back with my little brother. Makes for a nice little trek where you can see the Cincinnati skyline. Attached to two nice parks on both sides

Great place to go for walking and enjoyed the sunset, been there done that I recommend going there

I mean it’s a bridge. It’s cool. When you drive over it it sings LALALALALLALLLLAAAAAAALALALALLALALLALAAAAAA cool to walk over, and it’s a quick trip to Kentucky which is alright but Kentucky is kinda lameIt’s a bridge tho, like. just a bridge.

The Most Beautiful Bridge in the City!!! John A. Roeblings bridge opened in January of 1867. Thank you for being the reason our city thrives... And sings... We need to honor you and celebrate you!

I am obsessed with the beauty and history of this bridge. The Johan A. Roebling (Civil Engineer) Suspension Bridge, originally calledCovington-Cincinnati Bridge (or vice-versa) - National Historic Landmark. Upon opening 12/1/1866, it was the longest suspension bridge in the world at 1,057 feet main span.

Love walking over this bridge!

Wonderful architecture. It was the first Bridge to span the Ohio River, which means „Good River“ in Seneca. It is also the prototype of the Brooklyn Bridge

Amazing spot!! The bridge crosses over the Ohio river from Covington, Ky. to Cincinnati, OH. Theres parks on both sides of the river for the kids to play. Perfect for picnics with amazing views of the water & cities. The bridge is beautifully lit up at night, and you can hear the cars roar across the bridge 24/7. Yes, you can see though the wires while on the bridge to the river below, which is where the roar or humming sounds come from. Really cool!

We were expecting to be able to walk across the bridge, but sadly, when we were there, the bridge was closed due to structural issues. We were able to walk along the side for a little, but we could not go far. We were not able to drive along it either, which was something we were looking forward to. Nonetheless, it is a pretty cool piece of history, definitely worth checking out if you have time.

My favorite structure period! If you don’t know, this bridge was built by the same father/son team that built the Brooklyn bridge. The history of this bridge is very interesting.

Walk across for a great view of the river and both shores

This bridge is simply beautiful.

It is a small copy of Brooklyn Bridge through Ohio river. I was so excited when I had walked here. Dont be lazy - take a rest in the Cincinnati.

Nice for a run but pedestrian section could use a little work to fill in holes

There are parking lot on both side of the bridge and a small park near the bridge. Very nice place to take pictures.

Nice bridge with protected pedestrian paths on each side. We crossed from KY to OH over the purple people bridge and came back on this one.Lucked out because the traffic lanes were closed so technicians could work on lighting and sound for a city wide light show later in the week.The vehicle deck on the bridge is steel so I imagine it can be noisy when cars are on it.

Once the largest suspension bridge in the world, the John A. Roebling Suspension Bridge continues to be a distinctive historical landmark and a hub of activity between Cincinnati, Ohio, and Covington, Kentucky.Amazing place in Cincinnati which we have to visit.!!!!!

Love this bridge visually, but I hate driving on it, I feel like I dont have control of my car. Saturday 10/12/19 we were stuck on it trying to get across walking for 45 min! Scary, not gonna lie, my vertigo went nuts. It was BLINK! but I didnt expect that much chaos. I did get this beautiful pic of this gorgeous bridge!

Beautiful bridge and lovely to walk across.

Its cool to walk across from one state to the other.

Worth a visit! Read: The Great Bridge by David McCulloch and walking this bridge will surprise you with the story that Wikipedia cannot touch-too bullet point.

A great place on Cincinnatis must visit list. I love the way it feels as well as sounds when you drive on the Roebling Suspension Bridge. There is a little park under the bridge on Cincinnati side, which offers an amazing sight for those looking at the Ohio River from the bank.

One of Cincinnatis best landmarks that is great to walk across and listen to it sing as the cars drive over.

A landmmark icon of Cincinnati history. The beauty and sound of the metal wave grates as you drive over, its as if it sings to you. On the Ohio side it bring you to the beautiful Smale park area on the Banks! A great way to connect to COVINGTON, KY by walking, driving or bicycling. At night its even more captivating when it is lit up and a part of the Cincinnati skyline. Enjoy!

I Love it here!!!

This is an incredible bridge, and even though we werent able to drive over it, we got to take some cool pictures of it.

Looks really awesome, and you can run or ride a bike across the whole thing!!

Nice historical bridge, great views.

Perfect for an evening stroll

Most awesome bridge ever

This is a great bridge along the Cincinnati riverfront area. The bridge passes through Smale Park on the Cincinnati side which is very nice. Its awesome looking back into the city from the bridge as well.As a tourist I thought that the markers showing Ohio and Kentucky were on this bridge. The markers are on the neighboring Purple People Bridge. Despite being wrong about the markers, I still enjoyed crossing this bridge.

We were able to walk it another time and enjoyed not only the hike but the views from it and OF it during BLINK. It was beautiful!

Designed and built by John Roebling, the same man who built the famous Brooklyn bridge in NYC. Amazing piece of history, and remarkable feat of engineering!

If you drive too fast, your car will get pulled pulled to the side.

Cool to be able to walk across the bridge while it is closed down!!

Sad, its in such terrible shape. Its a community icon.

Great experience for family or a date.

Iconic bridge worth a trip to see in person.At one point this was the longest suspension bridge on the planet.Also was the prototype to the world famous Brooklyn Bridge.

I visited when the bridge was closed for vehicles so I walked cross the bridge. It is a nice bridge full of history. If you walk on the other end there are plates written story about this bridge.

Fun walk over the Ohio River and back.

Beautiful view at night!

Being afraid of heights I normally dont walk across bridges lol. This morning it was either wait 40 min for the next bus or walk across this here bridge. Ill just start by saying idk where people get the idea that if you face your fear youll get over it right away. That is definitely not the case for me. From the first step onto the bridge to my last step off I was terrified! I have no idea how people bike, jog, and walk across this bridge daily! Especially at 5 in the morning! I was able to make it across the bridge without having a panic attack by taking pictures. The bridge is a bridge. I didnt feel any movement when people in cars drove by (I was terrified I might). I wish the rails were a little higher but thats just me. You can take some beautiful scenic shots of the Cincinnati and Covington sides. So um yea use it or dont lol.

You just have to walk across the Ohio River. Night time is the best with the cities lit up.

A Beautiful piece of history

If youre passing through this area with your family, dont just walk past it. You cant get through here with your car, so youll have to park in a nearby parking lot and look around. I could walk on the bridge, but I was scared.

In love with this bridge, it was built the same year as the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. This Suspension Bridge was Designed by John Roebling the same man whom designed the Brooklyn Bridge in New York City this was a model and basically a test before he went on to make the Brooklyn Bridge. Cincinnati has one other connection to New York City and thats the Carew Tower which was a prototype and built before the Empire State Building

Such a beautiful location!

My favourite bridge

A nice walk across the bridge in the evening will give you one of the best views of the city!

Great spot to spend the evening!

Was walking across the bridge during the Blink event. We crossed from Kentucky to Cincinnati with ease but as it got later the foot traffic picked up and very crowded which made it take a lot longer to get back across. But was still a fun event

This bridges architecture is amazing. These photos were taken while on a B&B Sightseeing Cruise.

We visited during Blink, when it was lit up along with the city and river bank! It was absolutely Beautiful! The walk was nice, But the view from the bridge is stunning. We cant wait to see whats in store for next year! Id tell anyone to take advantage of the view by taking a stroll across the Roebling Suspension Bridge!

The bridge is a landmark in Cincinnati, its got a park by the river with a lot of activities for the family.

Got to walk out onto John A Roebling Suspension Bridge, which was built BEFORE that other bridge in NY. Nice, unusual view of the city walking on the deck of the bridge

Walking down on a bridge on evening times Erase nice

I love this bridge

A must visit if you visit or live in Cincinnati. You can ride or walk across but if you have a fear of heights it will test you.

Beautiful city Cincinnati Ohio and cross the river is Kentucky

Pretty, historic bridge. Walking traffic allowed.

Wish i had walked...

Both my husband and I are seniors. The walk across was pleasant and easy to.navigate but worn in many places. That is why it was rated 3 stars. The view is so beautiful. We saw many people walking or riding their bikes.

Its a nice place to visit
