China opens new Sino-North Korea border crossing in Jilin province

Authorities reported to have spent $41 million on new facilities

China and North Korea on Monday opened a new “highway port” border crossing in Ji’an City on the Sino-DPRK border, the local municipal government announced in a statement.

In a ceremony held in the presence of local officials, the bridge reportedly opened to the public this week, with 120 Chinese visitors then allowed to cross.

Municipal officials are reported to have spent 280 million Yuan ($41,696,200) on the new facilities, which span 102,800 square meters and feature a “guest inspections site, cargo inspection site, border inspection camp zone and… a scenic spot,” according to the statement by the local government.
