Clifton Suspension Bridge and the Observatory
Clifton Down, Clifton
Address: Clifton Suspension Bridge Visitor Centre, Bridge Road, Leigh Woods, Bristol BS8 3PA- Outdoors
- Cheap and cheerful
- Romantic
Walk across Brunel's bridge high above the Avon Gorge, then visit the old observatory on the downs for its Victorian camera obscura and the tunnel down to a viewing platform in the cliff face.
Why it's a good date: The bridge is free to walk and it's the best view in Bristol, especially at sunset. The camera obscura is a lovely bit of Victorian magic to share in the dark.
