Another symbolic bridge for Sofia is on the way to the Central Railway Station, north of the city centre. Designed by the architect Proshek in 1890, four larger than life lion bronze sculptures flank the bridge across the Vladayska River at the top of Maria Luisa Blvd. The site used to mark the northern border of the city and was often used as an area for national celebrations.

The second metro line will have a station at Lion's Bridge, the construction of which is currently causing traffic congestion here.
