Guizhou's super project: Yachihe Bridge The world's bridges are in China, and China's bridges are in Guizhou! Guizhou is known as the "Bridge Museum," with high mountains, deep valleys, and rugged terrain, creating one breathtaking super project after another. Yachihe Bridge has a main span of 800 meters and a total length of 1,450 meters. It is the world's largest span steel truss girder cable-stayed bridge, the largest cable-stayed bridge in the world, and the fifth tallest bridge in the world.

If you want to drive to Yachihe Bridge, there are a few things to note: 🔷🔹To the west side of the bridge (near Qianxi City): Navigate to 'Eryan', continue forward after reaching Eryan, and turn left at the fork onto the cement road for a few hundred meters to reach the destination. The road conditions throughout the drive are good, and the village roads are relatively easy to drive on, with two-way lanes that make it easy to pass other cars, although some sections are quite steep, but manageable for most cars. 🔷🔹The advantage of the west side is that you can take aerial photos of the Hundred Mile Gallery, and if the weather is good, the shooting effect will be even better. However, the photo spots here might be muddy. 🔷🔹To the east side of the bridge (near Qingzhen City, Guiyang): Navigate to 'Ganzi Lin', and after arriving, continue along the small uphill road on the left to reach the bottom of the bridge. The photo spots on the east side are relatively better than those on the west side, with less mud. No matter which side you go from, Yachihe Bridge itself is very spectacular.
