Zhushenmiao Bridge
祝神庙大桥
Guangyuan, Sichuan, China
(354) feet high / (108) meters high
(131) foot span / (40) meter span
2011


Located on a new expressway near Guanyuan City, the Zhushenmiao Bridge is unusual in that the engineers decided to forgo a typical long span haunched prestressed beam in favor of several tall H-frame ladder piers. The tallest reaches a height of 101 meters.

Nearby Zhaohua Jialing River arch bridge is one of the 10 longest of its type in the world.
