Zhongxian Yangtze River Bridge

Zhongxian Yangtze River Bridge is a suspension bridge that crosses the river and links the two sides of Zhong County in Chongqing. It carries China National Highway 350 and provides a direct path for road traffic across the water.

The bridge was built in the early 2000s to improve transportation connections in the region. It represents a major shift in how the area developed its infrastructure across the Yangtze.

The bridge transformed how people move across the Yangtze, replacing ferries that were once the only way to cross between these communities. It now shapes daily routines for locals who travel between the two sides of the county.

Crossing the bridge is straightforward for vehicles on the highway, with clear views across the river. Visitors can drive across or stop at viewpoints to take photographs and see the valley below.

The bridge spans the river using advanced engineering techniques that allow it to connect a vast valley. Its height and span demonstrate sophisticated design solutions that are characteristic of modern Chinese infrastructure.
