The Tsing Ma Bridge in Hong Kong is not only a vital transportation link, but also one of the city's most iconic landmarks.

Named after the two islands it connects – Tsing Yi and Ma Wan, the 2,160-meter-long bridge was the world's longest suspension bridge carrying both road and rail traffic at the time of its completion. It opened to traffic in May, 1997.

Today, the bridge plays a crucial role in the route linking urban Hong Kong to Lantau Island, home to key destinations such as Hong Kong International Airport, the Hong Kong Port of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, the towering Tian Tan Buddha, and Hong Kong Disneyland.
