Well this a great spot to see the sun set. It’s the nature’s drama displayed every single evening. Even when the sun don’t want to show or participate in it. You have to be there to see.

The only way to cross the river that far east. Nice views of the industrial part of the city.

Make sure you check the time for the ferry. At the time of this writing, it's free.
