Skozi Maribor se vije reka Drava, ki je igrala pomembno vlogo skozi starejšo zgodovino mesta. Nastanek mesta je bil tesno povezan z njenim prehodom. Cez reko Dravo vodi Stari most (Glavni most, Dravski most), Koroški most, Titov most in Studenška brv. Stari most je bil v vojnih casih vzrok za razne nevarnosti, v mirnem casu pa vir za zaslužek. Zgrajen je bil med leti 1906 in 1912. Spada med ene od lepših mostov v Avstro-Ogrski. Koroški most je bil zgrajen leta 1996. Povezuje levo stran mesta z mestno cetrtjo Studenci. Blizu Koroškega mostu se nahaja cerkev svetega Jožefa. Titov most je bil zgrajen leta 1963 in nosi ime po znanem Jugoslovanskem predsedniku Josipu Brozu Titu. S Titovega mostu je lep razgled na cerkev svete Magdalene in Pohorje. Danes so ob reki speljane številne sprehajalne poti. Pri Starem mestu je nastalo nakupovalno središce Europark. Lent je najstarejši del mesta ob dravskem nabrežju, kjer vas pricakajo številni lokali in restavracije. Vsako leto poteka tukaj Festival Lent. Blizu Lenta se nahaja Kopališce Pristan. Studenška brv ima zelo pesto zgodovino. Med drugo svetovno vojno je bila razstreljena, leta 1946 jo je odnesla narasla reka Drava. Nova je bila postavljena leta 1948 in leta 2007 so zaceli z njeno rekonstrukcijo. Uradna otvoritev je bila januarja 2008.
Gently winding its way through the city of Maribor the Drava River played an important role in the city’s history. The beginnings of the city relate closely to the river’s crossing. Today there are several bridges taking the travellers across the water: Stari most (the Old Bridge, also called the Main Bridge or the Drava Bridge), Koroški most (the Carinthian Bridge), Titov most (the Tito’s Bridge) and Studenška brv (the Studenci walking bridge).
The Old Bridge used to present danger in the times of war while it was a source of income in the times of piece. It was build between the years 1906 and 1912 and it is now one of the most beautiful bridges of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The Koroški Bridge was built in 1996 and it connects the left bank with the Studenci city quarter. Near the bridge there is the church of St Joseph. The Tito’s Bridge was built in 1963 and was named after the president of the Yugoslav Republic. From the bridge there is a great view of the Pohorje hills and the church of St Magdalene. The Studenci walking bridge has quite a history. It was blown up during the WWII, then it was lost in the waters of the flooding Drava River. The new bridge was built in 1948. In 2007 reconstruction works started and the new bridge was officially open in 2008.
