Peace Bridge (Mongolia)

Peace Bridge (Mongolia)

Peace Bridge in Mongolia is a bridge built in 1963 in the city centre of Ulan Bator, the capital of Mongolia, with technical and financial assistance from China.

Due to lack of maintenance over the years, the bridge had become unsafe for use. In May 2006, the bridge will undergo a complete overhaul that will take 5 months. The cost of the overhaul, which is approximately RMB 19 million, will be provided by China.
