Egongyan Bridge, Suspension bridge in Chongqing, China
Egongyan Bridge is a suspension structure spanning 6500 meters across the Yangtze River in Chongqing. The crossing features eight traffic lanes and connects multiple districts on opposite banks.
The crossing opened in 2000 and was the first major suspension bridge over the Yangtze River in the greater Chongqing area. Its completion sparked further bridge construction across the city.
The bridge takes its name from local geographical features, reflecting traditional naming practices in the region. This connection to the landscape shows how the community relates to natural elements around them.
The crossing accommodates eight lanes for vehicle traffic and serves as a daily route for commuters and travelers. A parallel transit option provides an alternative for pedestrians and public transportation users.
The bridge's elevation changes with the water level of the Three Gorges Reservoir behind it. This makes it a rare structure that visibly adapts to seasonal water conditions.
