Description Opened in 1964, the bridge was the only official border crossing between the two states until the 2010s. Depending on the source, it is 1760 m, 1800 m or 2100 m above sea level. The reinforced concrete arch bridge with a prestressed concrete deck girder on top was around 8 m wide and 45 m long. It was badly damaged in the April 25, 2015 earthquake and had to be demolished. The 2015 quakes closed the route and turned the border trading towns into ghost villages. In 2016, there was some repairs on the route, but trading had not been restored to previous levels. First it was replaced by a temporary bridge. Chinese companies then built a new, reportedly 110m long and significantly wider, twin-pier reinforced concrete girder bridge alongside it, which opened in June 2019 ...

Araniko Highway
The Araniko Highway () connects Kathmandu with Kodari, northeast of the Kathmandu Valley, on the Nepal-China border. It is among the most dangerous of highways in Nepal due to extremely steep slopes on each side of the road from Barabise onwards; massive landslides and bus plunges are not uncommon, especially after rains. At the Sino-Nepal Friendship Bridge, it connects with China National Highway 318 to Lhasa, and eventually to Shanghai. History The road was built in the 1960s with help from the Chinese on an older yak track. They also planned to expand the road in 2012, but keeping the route open was made more difficult by landslides from monsoons. The road became a conduit for a large amount of trade between China and Nepal, and also for some trade between India and China when it is open. Etymology The highway is named after Arniko, a 13th-century Nepalese architect who introduced Nepalese architectural styles to Tibet and China. It is said that he walked all the way from ...
