Taedong Bridge, Road bridge in Pyongyang, North Korea.

The Taedong Bridge extends across the Taedong River, connecting the western and eastern districts of the North Korean capital with its concrete and steel structure.

Built in 1905 during Japanese occupation, the bridge underwent substantial reconstruction after suffering extensive damage during the Korean War in December 1950.

The bridge gained international recognition through Max Desfor's Pulitzer Prize-winning photograph capturing civilians crossing its ruins during the conflict.

The structure carries the Haebangsan Street over the river and serves as a primary transportation route for vehicles and pedestrians between Pyongyang's urban districts.

The bridge appears in the North Korean browser game Pyongyang Racer, where players navigate across its span during their virtual journey through the capital.
