Linjiang Yalu River Bridge

About

The Linjiang Yalu River Bridge is a bridge over the Yalu River, connecting Linjiang City, Jilin Province, China, with Chunggang County, Chagang Province, North Korea. It was built by the Japanese in 1938 and Linjiang Border Post is located there. A little downstream from the bridge is Yunfeng Dam. During the Korean War, it was one of the border posts from which the Chinese People's Volunteer Army entered North Korea.
