An engineering marvel is now officially open in China (we covered the construction here). The Huajiang Grand Canyon Bridge, which is the tallest in the world, opened last Sunday. A commute that once took two hours can be completed in two minutes now that the bridge is finished. There’s more to this bridge than just a way to get from point A to point B.
Here’s more background. (READ)
China officially opens the world’s tallest bridge, completing the project in under 4 years.
The bridge features a restaurant at the top, a whopping 2600 ft above the river.
The bridge not only cuts a 2-hour drive to 2 minutes, but also features as a theme park with a glass skywalk, a high-speed glass elevator, and a waterfall off the edge of the bridge.
Visitors can also bungee jump off of it. The Huajiang Grand Canyon Bridge is 2050 feet above the river and spans 4600 feet over the river.
Insane.
The bridge almost doesn’t seem real; it’s so enormous in scope. (WATCH)

It’s breathtaking.
It’s just as impressive from 2600 feet below. (WATCH)
How tall is the world’s tallest bridge? This angle is really convincing! pic.twitter.com/k8hqmxcUDR

So insane. Must be pretty wild going underneath it when the waterfall feature is on.

It’s probably a gentle mist by the time it reaches the ground.

Imagine what that must be like.
One poster wonders how one gets to the restaurant.
Where do you park to go to the restaurant? 😂

There is a parking area underneath and the elevator takes you to the top. pic.twitter.com/Y74L6Akfgo

We assume one needs reservations.
Posters couldn’t help comparing the Chinese bridge to the ongoing train boondoggle in Gavin Newsom’s California.

That slab of concrete probably cost 10x more than this bridge.

That's a harsh take. For context: China's Huajiang Bridge cost ~$290M and took 4 years. CA's Fresno Viaduct is part of a $2.5B package in a larger HSR project that's spent ~$14B total so far, with delays from regulations and lawsuits. Different systems, different challenges.

Man, that’s depressing.
