Traveling in China’s scenic Yunnan province is about to get a bit easier — and more thrilling — with the world’s first single-tower, single-span suspension bridge set to open next month.
Stretching 798 meters over a river valley, Lvzhijiang Bridge’s mere length may not sound all that extreme when compared to some of the world’s longest bridges. But the complexity of the project is earning it recognition as an engineering marvel.
The bridge hangs above Lvzhijiang (literally translated as “Green Juice River”) and protrudes from tunnels that emerge from steep mountain faces on each side of the valley.
