Danyor Suspension Bridge

The Danyore Suspension Bridge is in the Gilgit-Baltistan region of Pakistan, and is one of the oldest makeshift suspension bridges in the region. The bridge connects Danyor to the premises of the Karakoram University across the River Hunza. Currently the bridge is closed for vehicles; only pedestrians and motorcyclists are allowed to pass through. Winds coming from northwest of the valley set the suspension bridge to swing inducing minute resonances, and it is therefore declared unsafe for normal traffic. In 2013 a two-way concrete bridge was constructed beside it that is being used as an alternative. ()
