Xinshougang Bridge, an epic display of modern engineering, spans the Yongding River in western Beijing. Looking towards the north, you can spot the industrial relics of Shougang Park, including the Big Air Shougang, a ski jump used in the 2022 Olympic Winter Games. To the south, you can spot the Yongding Tower standing tall in Beijing Garden Expo Park. A hot-spot for photographers and cyclists alike, the new Shougang Bridge has quickly become one of Beijing's must-see places. So, let's check out the beauty of it with some photos taken by Japanese photographer Ken Umeda.
Following a rain shower, many people flocked to the bridge on their bikes and by foot to enjoy the sunset.
