Excerpt from Wikipedia
The Yachi River Bridge is a cable-stayed bridge in Guizhou, China. The bridge is the fourth highest in the world. It is also one of the longest cable-stayed bridges with a main span of 800 m (2,600 ft). The western tower is 258.2 m (847 ft) placing it amongst the tallest bridges in the world. The eastern tower is 243.2 m (798 ft). The bridge crosses the Yachi River between Qianxi County in Bijie and Qingzhen in Guiyang. The bridge carries traffic on the Guiyang to Qianxi Expressway.
Although Yachi River Bridge is officially 440 metres high, the bridge crosses over the reservoir of the Dongfeng Dam so it is 306 m (1,004 ft) above the water level.
