Jilin City, renowned as the River City of the North, is beautifully bisected by the Songhua River. Spanning this majestic waterway is the Linjiangmen Bridge, a single-tower cable-stayed marvel that has become an iconic landmark of the region.
Construction of the Linjiangmen Bridge began in April 1992 and was completed in December 1994. This impressive structure not only serves as a vital transportation link but also stands as a testament to Jilin City's architectural prowess.
In 2016, the bridge underwent a significant renovation aimed at enhancing its visual appeal. The revitalized Linjiangmen Bridge now gleams even more brightly, symbolizing the harmonious blend of the city's rich historical heritage and its forward-looking modernity.
Connecting the historic old town on one end with the burgeoning modern city on the other, Linjiangmen Bridge embodies the dynamic transformation of Jilin City. It offers both residents and visitors a stunning vantage point to appreciate the seamless integration of past and present.
