The flying saucer at the top of the SNP Bridge pylon, finished in the early 1970s, is Bratislava's viewing point: an open-air platform 95 metres above the river with a full view of the castle, the old town and the blocks of Petržalka. A lift goes up in under a minute; the platform is reached by steps, so it is not wheelchair accessible, although the bar and restaurant are. Open every day from 10:00 to 23:00. Entry to the platform is paid at the base. Sunset is when it is busiest.
