Lo Wu Bridge

The Lo Wu Bridge spans across the Sham Chun River with a steel truss structure connecting the railway networks of Shenzhen and Hong Kong.

The initial railway bridge construction at Lo Wu began in 1906, leading to its opening in 1910 as part of the British Section of the Kowloon-Canton Railway.

The bridge functions as a physical connection point between mainland China and Hong Kong, representing the meeting of different administrative and social systems.

The current bridge measures 44 meters in length, 20 meters in width, and 11 meters in height, accommodating both passenger and freight train services.

Engineers successfully relocated the original bridge structure downstream in 2003 without damaging it, preserving its historical value while allowing new construction.
