Colored-LEDs installed across Chinese bridge to North Korea: Photos

Lankov: "China is again willing to foot North Korean bills – some of them, at least"

Dandong's Friendship Bridge, which straddles the Yalu River between North Korea and China, was decorated this week with color-changing LEDs across the full length of the structure, photos obtained by NK News show.

Lights were tested on the normally poorly-lit North Korean side of the bridge over the weekend, with the full structure eventually illuminated in rotating pink, green, blue, and cyan colors by Monday evening.
