Category:Wanding Bridge, Protected truss bridge in Wanding Town, China.

The steel truss bridge spans across the Wanding River, connecting the Chinese frontier town with the neighboring Burmese settlement of Pang Hseng.

The bridge gained strategic importance during World War II as part of the Burma Road, facilitating crucial supply transportation between India, Burma, and China.

The structure represents a connection point between Chinese and Burmese communities, marked by daily flag-raising ceremonies at the customs checkpoint.

Visitors crossing the bridge need to provide two photographs to travel agencies for border crossing arrangements through the customs and inspection stations.

The bridge stands at an elevation of 830 meters above sea level in Dehong Prefecture, where three administrative systems converge in China's smallest county-level town.
