Wujiazhai Bridge, Yunnan-Vietnam railway

Walking 17 kilometers from Peace, take a ride on the return trip. The scenery is very good. After more than 100 years of engineering miracles, it is still designed by a French female engineer. There are also many local tourists who go to the New Year in 2021. The mountain road is indeed not very good for driving as said by other guides.

Because the itinerary is very small, the scenery is not mainly written, mainly written how to go, as of the time I wrote the itinerary, the navigation is still only Baidu map can navigate to the whole hard road (the navigation screenshot is mainly from the screen side of the route, For your reference (only about 15 roads are masonry hardened roads). Departing in Kunming, passing through the screen, there is a Yanxi Village in the middle, Wantang, and reaching the Senzi Bridge. The whole journey takes about 6 and a half hours. Among them, there are about 15 roads on the edge of the screen, which is easier to get visibility less than 100 thick fog. Please drive carefully. Public transportation can choose trains to Pingbian County, and two choices to the screen: 1 directly chartered car, the price may be about 400. 2 I heard that there is a bus directly to the Senzi Bridge, but it is not a normal shuttle bus. You can shuttle to the Wantang and charter a car to the Senzi Bridge in the Wantang. The cost is estimated to save half. Some recommendations are to go to Heping Township, and then go to the Senzi Bridge. Whether it is self-driving or public transportation, don't go to Heping Township. The road conditions are super poor. Quite delayed. The main places on the road have good scenery. After the screen, the road (masonry road) of the national road starts to take the country road (masonry road) is about 7 kilometers. The opposite side of the road is the classic Baizhai Bridge of the Fuyue Railway (last picture). Or you can navigate to Baizhai Station, and you can reach the bridge by walking about one kilometer from the railway. Tips: Baizhai Station goes down, and the road up can't shoot the bridge. Only across the river, or walk along the railway, you can shoot it. There is a Yunnan-style power station on the left about one kilometer from Wantang. Pump up the water and rush down to generate electricity (there are many power stations along the way, but this is relatively close). Also about five kilometers out of Wantang, there is a waterfall on the top of the mountain in front of the right. It is relatively high and the water flow is quite urgent. It's just that the shooting point is an easy rocking area, please pay attention to safety. After arriving at the scenic spot, tickets are free. Suggested play: Go up the stairs in front of the house opposite the parking lot. The reason why you choose to go up here is because the mountain road is steep. If you come down from this road, it is more difficult. If it rains, it is more slippery. Shunlun across the bridge not far from there is a fork road (see icon note) After going to the railway, you can move freely, you can not go back, enter the tunnel, cross the bridge, enter the tunnel, exit the tunnel and continue to walk about 500 meters, do not enter the back tunnel, there is a repaired path on the right, and walk back to the parking area. If you don't want to climb the mountain, you can also go up from the parking area, walk along the road (masonry road) about 300 meters, there are stairs on the left to the railway, and then return to the original road after playing. Finally, a reminder: the scenic spots of the Senziqiao, there are a lot of garbage along the way, please take care of the environment, the garbage is not littered.

The bridge is 56 kilometers away from Pingbian County. It was built by the French in Qingguangxu in 22 years. More than 800 Chinese laborers have died. There is no shuttle bus here, you can only drive, rent a car or charter a car. It must be an off-road vehicle or a van. The car can't get in. The road is too bad. Take the winding road for about an hour, and then take two hours of dirt road to get there. Follow the path to the bottom of the bridge. Follow a path on the side of the plank road to the mountainside. Cross a railway culvert, you will reach the bridge, a beautiful railway bridge, No tickets here.

It took 1.5-2 hours for the past 50 kilometers on the screen side, and the mountain road was rugged. Navigate to "Senziqiao Village". Take the plank road to the end to take pictures, turn back to the viewing platform at the bottom of the bridge, slope on the right hand side, walk through the tunnel and follow the railway to reach the Senzi Bridge. Go through a tunnel, walk about 1 km down the right steps, and walk back to the parking lot along the stream. At least 2 hours.

There are no tickets, but there are not many shuttle buses to arrive. In addition to self-driving, you can also walk for a long road, and you can hike from Mengziyu Village. This bridge is not easy to repair in the conditions of more than 100 years ago, and it is piled up with human life. Now the plank road under the human character bridge is built, you can go straight to the bridge directly below, there are caves at the end of the plank road, I heard that the next step will also be developed. Of course, you must go to the bridge to see here. In the early years, there were armed police guards on the bridge. Now the train no longer passes here without armed police station, which can be convenient to go to the bridge.

The Panama Canal and Suez Canal are also known as the world's three major engineering miracles. The five-family bridge is one of the most difficult projects in the construction of the Pan-Viet railway. The bridge resembles an open pair of scissors, which is recorded as inspired by the French engineers of the time.
