The Huajiang Grand Canyon Bridge in China’s Guizhou Province opened in September 2025. Rising 625 metres above the Beipan River and stretching about 2.9 kilometres, it became the world’s highest bridge, according to Guinness World Records. It cuts the journey across the canyon from two hours to two minutes and has also become a tourist destination, welcoming around 3.3 million visitors through August 2026 and helping boost local businesses. But the value of expanding mega-bridges remains a subject of debate: a study of 295 bridges in Guizhou found that the average improvement in ease of travel fell from about 8% between 2010 and 2015 to 5% between 2015 and 2020.
