During the day, the bridge is home to many stalls selling various souvenirs and trinkets. At night, the bridge is illuminated and is an ideal place for a romantic walk across the river.

The iconic image of the wooden bridge, under which the river Orava flows, overseen by the majestic Veľký Choč, was the inspiration for the DolnyKubin.com logo.

The colonnade bridge in Dolný Kubín thus ranks among the admirable technical monuments and is one of the most sought-after and frequently photographed attractions in Dolný Kubín.
