Thakot Bridge

Thakot Bridge is located in Thakot, Battagram District of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. It is suspended by steel cables between towering pillars on the Indus River. This Chinese-built structure is both an engineering marvel and a historic landmark.

The inauguration ceremony of the Karakoram highway was held in 1978 at the same bridge where Pakistani President General Zia-ul-Haq and Chinese Deputy Prime Minister Kong Pao participated.
