Bãi Cháy Bridge is a modern engineering marvel that spans the Cua Luc channel, connecting the Hồng Gai and Bãi Cháy districts. Completed in 2006, its distinctive twin towers and cable stays create a dramatic silhouette, especially when illuminated at night. Pedestrians can walk across the bridge to enjoy sweeping views of Hạ Long Bay, the city, and the surrounding karst landscape. It has become a popular spot for photography, particularly at sunset. The bridge significantly reduced travel time between the two districts and is a symbol of the city's development.
Don't miss
- Walk or cycle across the bridge for panoramic bay and city views
- Photograph the bridge at sunset when the towers are lit
- Observe the cable-stayed structure up close, an icon of modern Vietnamese engineering
