Located 800 meters away from the famous Tiger Leaping Gorge Scenic Spot is the Shangrila-Lijiang Expressway Tiger Leaping Gorge Jinsha River Bridge with one of its steel-concrete pylons 162.5 meters tall. The total weight of the main truss and the bridge deck steel structure is more than 8,000 tons, and the amount of steel used is equivalent to the construction of an Eiffel Tower.

The road leads to prosperity. The increasingly developed expressway network provides a basic guarantee for economic and social development, and it is crucial for promoting balanced regional development.
