Shangqing Bridge Beijing

While it might be regarded as something to keep away from, the Shangquin Bridge is actually a vital part of Beijing transportation and a visit there is critical to any tourist wishing to understand the mindset and lifestyle of the modern Chinese citizen. In fact, at one point, traffic jams on the bridge were so problematic that heavy trucks were totally banned from taking the route for fear of its collapsing! Recent attempts are underway to alleviate the problem of congested traffic, but as of yet, no solution seems certain to yield results.
