The abandoned Yellow Bridge has a main length of about 50 meters and a width of about 4 meters. The yellow bridge was designed by a French female architect. The yellow bridge was already fragile and unsuitable, so a replacement bridge was built next to it. And it is estimated thet the replacement bridge was built decades ago.

Now the yellow bridge is a heritage building. The yellow bridge is a suspension bridge Made of iron slings and two iron support which are about 18 meters high as reinforcements for the suspension bridge.

It will just be made into a historical site created by the Dutch government.

@nening, Yes, that's right, the yellow bridge was built by the Dutch government at a time when indonesia was not yet independent. And now it has become a historical site. Thank you. Have a great day.
