In the heart of Dehong, Yunnan Province, the historic Wanding Bridge stretches across the border between the Chinese mainland and Myanmar. Built in 1928, this iconic bridge has been a silent witness to the tides of history and a symbol of enduring connection.
Originally serving as a vital route for local residents to trade and travel, the Wanding Bridge gained prominence during the World Anti-Fascist War. It became a crucial wartime lifeline, supporting efforts and fostering hope during challenging times.
Today, the bridge has transformed into an international corridor for shared development. It stands as a powerful emblem of the new chapter of connectivity and regional cooperation between the Chinese mainland and Myanmar, promoting peace and unity.
The Wanding Bridge is more than just steel and wood; it’s a beacon of resilience and a gateway to a harmonious future for the people of both nations.
