Sichuan China's Bridges: Zipingpu Arch Bridge in Dujiangyan

July 2008 (31.038 Degrees, 103.578 Degrees) Zipingpu Arch Bridge
Next to the Zipingpu Dam is this single span deck arch bridge. The dam suffered moderate damage during the 2008 earthquake but fortunately it didn't fail. There were landslides above the bridge but the embankments were well anchored and suffered little damage.
