Built in advance of the construction of the giant Jinghe Dam, this suspension footbridge is a substantial structure that seems to be open to the public and may well become a permanent footbridge once the giant dam is complete several hundred meters upstream of the bridge. The front row view of the dam face and the 200 meter vertical cliffs of the abyss-like Jing River gorge should continue to make this one of the most amazing scenic spots in all of Shaanxi Province.
The Jinghe Dam Footbridge is one of just 2 bridges in Northern China to ever exceed 200 meters in height and is currently the highest bridge ever built in Shaanxi Province.
The tower to tower span length is considerably longer then the suspended deck span length.
