Yeongdong Bridge, Road bridge in Gangnam District, Seoul, South Korea.

The Yeongdong Bridge extends 1,065 meters across the Han River, connecting the districts of Gwangjin and Gangnam through a double-level steel structure.

The opening of Yeongdong Bridge in November 1973 marked a major advancement in Seoul's infrastructure, addressing the transportation needs of the growing metropolis.

The bridge stands as a testament to South Korea's rapid industrial development period, representing the transformation of Seoul into a modern urban center.

The structure accommodates 55,000 vehicles daily and includes dedicated lanes for different traffic patterns, making it a primary route for crossing the Han River.

Engineers designed the bridge with two distinct levels, incorporating specific structural elements to manage the heavy traffic flow between Seoul's commercial districts.
