Zolotoy Bridge, Cable-stayed bridge in Vladivostok, Russia
Zolotoy Bridge spans the Golden Horn Bay with two V-shaped pylons rising 225 meters above the water, supporting a central span of 737 meters through steel cables. The roadway deck extends 33.3 meters in width and accommodates six traffic lanes connecting the northern and southern parts of the city.
Early plans for a crossing over the Golden Horn Bay emerged in the late 19th century, but actual implementation did not begin until 2008. Construction was completed in 2012, timed to coincide with the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation conference hosted in Vladivostok.
The V-shaped pylons recall the outstretched wings of seagulls above the water, a motif visitors often connect with the harbor birds and the city's long seafaring tradition. When ships pass beneath, this link between construction and maritime surroundings becomes especially clear to observers on the shore.
The bridge cannot be accessed by pedestrians, but both shores offer good viewing points for the structure and the bay. Drivers crossing should use the lanes toward the city center to catch a view of the harbor during the journey.
The structure ranks among the five largest cable-stayed bridges in the world and was built with specialized materials to endure strong winds and harsh Pacific conditions. At the opening ceremony, the first vehicles drove across while ships passed through the bay entrance below them into the harbor.
