Sanjiaoyan Bridge is one of 3 high beam bridges located on a 3 kilometer stretch of the S10 Zhangjiajie to Huayuan Expressway. Like its two brothers just east and west of it, Sanjiaoyan has the unique 3-stage rocket shaped piers that become narrower as they become taller.
Just several kilometers east of Qingping is the spectacular Lishuihe Bridge - one the 10 highest suspension bridges in the world.
