Designed by architect Vu Viet Anh and his team, the Golden Bridge opened to tourists in June 2018 and quickly became a popular tourism symbol.
The bridge has featured in top news outlets’ annual awards earlier. It was chosen among the world’s best travel photos of 2018 by CNN Travel, the World’s 100 Greatest Places by Time magazine, and Pictures of the Year 2018 by Reuters.
The World Travel Awards, launched in 1993, acknowledge excellence in the travel and tourism industry, and have been described as the “travel industry’s equivalent of the Oscars.”
