Five years on: Roads bring country prosperity
China's first ecological overwater road
This road opened in Xingshan county, Central China's Hubei province, in 2015. To protect forests on nearby mountains, the 4.4 km stretch of highway was built over the Xiangxi River in the Three Gorges Reservoir area. Bordered by green mountains, it is hailed as the country's "most beautiful road above water". [Photo/VCG] |
