Youyi Bridge
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Youyi Bridge (Chinese: 友誼橋, meaning Friendship Bridge, Urdu: دوستی کا پل) is a bridge on the Karakoram Highway at Thakot in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan.
The bridge spans the Indus river, and was constructed between 1966 and 1978.[1] The bridge was given its Chinese name in 2004 to honour the Chinese engineers killed in the construction of the Karakoram Highway.[2]
