Completed in 2003, the Lupu Bridge in Shanghai once held the title of the world’s longest spanning steel arch bridge. Spanning the Huangpu River, it connects the districts of Luwan and Pudong, from which it derives its name. The bridge stretches a total length of 12,795 feet (3,900 meters), with a main span of 1,805 feet (550 meters). Visitors can marvel at its impressive architectural design and enjoy panoramic views of the river and the city skyline. Today, the bridge serves as both a vital transportation link and a symbol of Shanghai’s modern engineering prowess.
