-The Nujiang Railway Bridge Darui is the third longest span railway-only arch bridge in existence and one of the 10 longest arch bridges in the world with a main span of 490 meters.  Located along the Dali to Ruili Railway line in Yunnan Province, the all steel bridge is also unique for having a station in the very center of the span since both ends of the 1,024 meter long structure terminate into long tunnels.

 Although the Nujiang Railway Bridge is 212 meters high when the river is at normal flows, rare one in a hundred year floods can raise the Nu River level another 45 meters making the deck only 167 meters high.  The 12 approach spans are 41 meters long while the 14 simple spans above the main arch are 37.2 meters long.
