'Magical' overpass in Chongqing |
This bridge is not for the faint of heart. A dizzyingly-high overpass in Southwest China's Chongqing municipality has wowed Internet users since the official Weibo account Love Chongqing uploaded nine photos of it on Sunday. Some commented it was like a 3D film coming to life.
The bridge, connecting the ground with a 13-storey building, is 40 meters high and 30 meters long. The overpass appeared in the famous Chinese film Crazy Stones, but the Weibo entry has made many locals rack their brains to find out exactly where the bridge is.
A neighboring resident surnamed Wang said that many people use the bridge to go to work. “You can take the elevator to the 13th floor and use the bridge to get to downdown directly,” said Wang.
John Edwards, the UK trade commissioner for China, praised Chongqing over its rise as a burgeoning center in intelligent manufacturing.
