The world’s tallest bridge that cuts a 2-hour drive to 2 minutes in China has broken multiple records

The world’s tallest bridge in China has already broken multiple records.

Of course, the marvel in question is the Huajiang Grand Canyon Bridge.

Opened on September 25 of this year, the bridge is located in Guizhou, a province of China.

Incredibly, the new structure slashes a two-hour drive down to 2 minutes.

What’s so special about this whole thing?

Okay, so what exactly is so special about a bridge project?

First of all, this is officially the world’s tallest bridge.

The Huajiang Grand Canyon Bridge soars 2,050 feet above the Beipan River.

The height of the Huajiang Bridge isn’t the only record it holds.

For one thing, it is the longest bridge project found anywhere in a mountainous region.

Measuring 4,600 feet, it is yet another record held by the recently opened project.

“It’s the start of a new chapter,” bridge technician Tian Hongrui told NBC News.

World’s tallest bridge is much more than that

Remember when we mentioned that the Huajiang Grand Canyon Bridge was located in Guizhou?

It was built here as part of a wider initiative to boost the economic fortunes of the area as a whole.

Cutting a two-hour car drive to two minutes is one part of boosting economic growth.

But the bridge is also set to become a major tourism hub.

To attract tourists, the bridge has been designed to be a destination in itself.

And, to that end, it has been designed with viewing platforms, glass walkways and even a glass lift.

With the Beipan River over 2,000 feet below, it is definitely a breath-taking view.

Excuse us if we sit this one out, though….
