Description

Pont Shân is a single-arch bridge featuring thin, deep voussoirs. The main structure is made of uncoursed rubble masonry. It has low parapets with copings that slope outwards. The road measures 4.5 meters wide between the parapets at the arch. The bridge is approached by long causeways, especially on the north side, which are gently ramped towards the center.
