The Bridge of Sighs (Spanish: Puente de los Suspiros) is a wooden pedestrian overpass located between the Hermitage of Barranco and the Paseo Chabuca Granda (also known by its former name of Pasaje Zepita)[1] in Barranco District, in Lima, Peru.

[2][3] It is one of the most visited tourist places in the historic district, and a meeting point for couples in love.

[2][9] The bridge was inaugurated during the municipal administration (1875–1878)[10] of Mayor Francisco García Monterroso, on February 14, 1876.

[6][9][10] During the War of the Pacific, it was destroyed by Chilean troops passing through the place after being victorious in the Battle of Chorrillos on January 13, 1881.

[5] In 1960, the Creole music composer Chabuca Granda dedicated the Peruvian waltz "El puente de los suspiros" to the bridge.
