WORLD'S HIGHEST BRIDGE OPENS IN GUIZHOU

Published：2016-12-27

 

Soaring 565 meters above a river, Beipanjiang bridge in Guizhou opened to traffic on Thursday, making it the world's highest bridge.


With a height equivalent to a 200-storey building, the structure spanning the Beipanjiang Valley, is part of a highway linking Hangzhou city in East China's Zhejiang province and Ruili city in Guizhou's neighboring Yunnan province.


The construction of the 1,341-meter-long cable-stayed suspension bridge started in 2013, costing about 1 billion yuan (about $150 million).
