Hey there, travel enthusiasts! 🌏
The Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge (HZMB) just witnessed an epic milestone! On Monday, the third day of the Chinese New Year, over 130,000 travelers crossed this architectural marvel, smashing previous records! 🎆
This isn't just any number—it surpasses the previous record of 115,000 set during last year's Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day holiday. Talk about starting the Year of the Rabbit with a bang! 🐇🎇
From Saturday to Monday, a whopping 310,000 passengers and 41,000 vehicles made their way across the HZMB. That's a mind-blowing 5.2 times increase in people and 2.4 times in vehicles compared to last year's Spring Festival. 🚗💨
But what's so special about this bridge? Stretching 55 km, the HZMB connects China’s Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR), the city of Zhuhai in Guangdong Province, and Macao SAR. It's not just a bridge—it's the world's longest sea-crossing bridge-and-tunnel system! 🌉🌊
Beyond its record-breaking stats, the HZMB is a symbol of connectivity and opportunity, boosting the economic vibe of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. 🌠
So next time you're planning an adventure, consider a trip across this legendary bridge. Who knows, maybe you'll be part of the next record-breaking day! 😉
