1.2 The distinctive design of Ha Long Koi Bridge
Koi Bridge consists of two sections: an upper bridge and a lower bridge. The upper bridge is more than 50 meters long, while the lower one is about 56 meters long.

Ha Long Koi Bridge was inspired by the shape of the koi, a fish closely associated with Japanese culture. This is also how the bridge got its distinctive name. However, this is only its popular name, passed from person to person; its official name is Yin-Yang Bridge. As well as resembling a koi fish, the bridge symbolizes the harmony of yin and yang in Japanese culture. For this reason, many people also believe that this harmony makes the bridge a haven for couples: those who visit together will enjoy a romantic relationship, always finding balance and giving way to one another on their journey toward happiness.

2 The beauty of Ha Long Koi Bridge
Koi Bridge makes a strong impression on visitors because its underside, beams, and deck are all made of wood. The sides of the bridge are painted a vivid red—a color that is a defining symbol of Japanese culture. In Japan, red represents fire and the sun, and symbolizes vitality and life. It is also believed to ward off evil and bring good luck and prosperity.
