Description
Stayed by cables and girders that are painted a vivid orange, Qiansimen Bridge is designed to match its somewhat longer counterpart a kilometre up the road – Dongshuimen Bridge . The pair are among the seemingly countless number of bridges that span the two rivers meeting here in the centre of Chongqing . The Qiansimen crosses the Jialing River, while the Dongshuimen stretches over the mighty Yangtze . Known together as the Twin River Bridges, they're just two of the roughly 14,000 bridges that criss-cross this massive municipality of 32 million.
