The Huajiang Grand Canyon Bridge, the world's highest bridge, opened to traffic Sunday morning in southwest China's Guizhou Province, slashing travel time across a deep canyon from two hours to just two minutes after three years of construction. On the same day, a marriage registration service station set up at the Yundu service area near the bridge was also officially opened. Many couples came to register for marriage to embark on a new journey with the bridge. Spanning the Huajiang Grand Canyon, dubbed "the Earth's crack," the 2,890-meter-long structure is the latest addition to the rapidly expanding infrastructure network of the world's second-largest economy.
