Ba Son Bridge - 'The piano of light' in the heart of Ho Chi Minh City

Ba Son Bridge not only plays an important role as a bridge connecting District 1 center with Thu Thiem new urban area (Thu Duc city), but also impresses with its modern, unique design and brilliant lighting system, becoming a new architectural symbol of Ho Chi Minh City.

Ba Son Bridge has a total length of more than 1,400 meters, of which the main bridge is nearly 900 meters long, built in the style of a cable-stayed bridge with a dragon-shaped leaning tower extending out to the Saigon River. This design not only ensures the sustainability of the project, but also demonstrates the strong spirit of a dynamic, modern city.

Ba Son Bridge plays a role in connecting traffic infrastructure from the center of District 1 to Thu Thiem urban area, Thu Duc city.

Ba Son Bridge is a traffic project that renews the urban appearance of Ho Chi Minh City.

The special feature of the bridge is the 113-meter high tower, leaning towards the Thu Thiem urban area like an arm reaching out to welcome the development in the East of the city. The asymmetrical cable-stayed structure, combined with advanced construction technology, helps the bridge to have high load-bearing capacity and create a unique aesthetic in the heart of the modern urban area.

Not only a normal traffic project, Ba Son Bridge also contributes to relieving traffic pressure on overloaded routes such as Nguyen Huu Canh Street, Saigon River Tunnel, and at the same time expanding the development space between the city center and Thu Thiem urban area - which is planned to become a new financial and administrative center in the future.

With thorough investment and sophisticated design, Ba Son Bridge is considered a "door opening to the future", connecting the glorious past with the prosperous future.

One highlight that makes Ba Son Bridge attract special attention is the modern artistic lighting system installed along the bridge. Thousands of smart LED lights are capable of changing colors according to each theme and event, creating sparkling light shows every time night falls.

The light strips winding along the cables, reflecting on the Saigon River water surface, make the bridge look like a glowing silk strip in the center of the city. Many people compare Ba Son Bridge to a “light piano”, where colors move to the rhythm of the city, contributing to making the city landscape more romantic and modern.
