Tsing Ma Bridge between islands Tsing Yi and Ma Wan in Hong Kong (China)



Man survives 60 metre suicide leap from Tsing Ma Bridge. The 30-year-old man, surnamed Ng, was still conscious when rescue workers from the fire department and marine police pulled him out of the water to safety.
At dawn on Wednesday, the man flagged down a taxi in Sham Shui Po and asked to be taken to Tung Chung. According to the taxi driver, the man asked him to stop the car halfway across the bridge, which links the New Territories to Lantau Island. He claimed he was not feeling well.

Tsing Ma Bridge across the Ma Wan Channel in Hong Kong (China) depicted by Shen Ping

Without doubt, Hong Kong is an adorable city, studded with gems of wonder. In mere one hundred years, it has turned from a humble fishing village to one of the international metropolitans, an achievement worthy to be credited as a miracle. During my stay in this city for over twenty years, my family and I began from approaching it to gaining an understanding of it; gradually we have familiarized ourselves with it and shown it our affections. Now, we totally immerse ourselves into its society.

Tsing Ma Bridge over the Ma Wan Channel in Hong Kong (China)



With overwhelming steel and concrete work,
Tsing-ma Bridge looks like a glaring gem snake.
The well-setting lanes allow cars to run fast.
Its magnificent architect amazes the public,
That huge cost sure draws attention of critic.
