Construction of Pinglu Canal In Qinzhou - China

(251218) -- QINZHOU, Dec. 18, 2025 (Xinhua) -- An aerial drone photo shows the construction site of the Qishi hub on the Pinglu Canal in Qinzhou, south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, Nov. 12, 2025. Three years on, the construction of the Pinglu Canal as a core component of the New International Land-Sea Trade Corridor has shown remarkable progress. Upon completion, the 134.2-km canal would wind its way across Nanning and Qinzhou of Guangxi until it reaches the Beibu Gulf. It is expected to serve as an artery for river-sea inter-modal transportation in the southwestern part of the country. Photo by Zhou Hua/XInhua/ABACAPRESS.COM

Guizhou Bridges - China

This aerial drone photo taken on Nov. 25, 2021 shows the Pingtang Grand Bridge in southwest China's Guizhou Province. Guizhou, the only province in China without a single plain and home to deep ravines, has long relied on tunnels and bridges to overcome its jagged karst landscape. Since 2012, the province has accelerated its bridge construction endeavors. Guizhou now has over 32,000 bridges either already built or under construction -- a tenfold increase compared to the 1980s. Due to its sheer number of bridges, diverse bridge types and complex construction technologies, Guizhou has earned the title of "the world's bridge museum." Photo by Ou Dongqu /Xinhua/ABACAPRESS.COM
