The construction of the record-breaking structure lasted for three years with the participation of at least 1,000 engineers and technicians. It cost about 1 billion yuan (about US $150 million), according to Xinhua agency.
The 1,341-meter-long bridge is part of a highway linking Hangzhou City in the province of Zhejiang and Ruili City in the province of Yunnan. Guizhou, which is located in a mountainous area with multiple cloves, is home to seven out of China`s ten highest bridges.
