Pa Uon Bridge

Pa Uon Bridge spans 918 meters across the Black River with a width of 9 meters, featuring eleven concrete pillars and two abutments.

The construction of Pa Uon Bridge began in May 2007, replacing the Uon Pa ferry system that served local communities for generations.

The bridge hosts annual boat racing festivals where eight teams and over 200 rowers participate in competitions beneath its towering structure.

Built to withstand earthquakes up to 9.0 on the Richter scale, the bridge connects Quynh Nhai District with Thai villages across the river.

Two pillars of the bridge reach nearly 100 meters in height, setting a record for Vietnam's non-suspension bridges.
