Constructed in steel ands designed to represent a twisting snake, it is easy to see how this bridge got its' name: the Pythonbrug. The bridge was built in 2001, is located in Oostelijk Havengebied, and connects Sporenburg peninsula with Borneo Island.

Located nearby is another similar red bridge, but built for bikes, it is less steep. Both bridges were designed by the Rotterdam architecture bureau West 8.
