Capital B edit

I think "Bridge" should have a capital B (like Golden Gate Bridge). Badagnani (talk) 06:38, 17 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Yes, it's a mistake, could you fix it, including the address of the article (i don't know how) and the relevant links.

Eiffel edit

I've removed the Eiffel reference. The article mentions another company of architects, It's not mentioned by the sources on Eiffel I have, it dates from after Eiffels retirement from civil engineering, it bears a nameplate with another name, and the Eiffel company generally designed and built projects.TheLongTone (talk) 19:58, 22 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

History edit

Long Bien Bridge is a historic bridge across the Red River that connects two districts of Hanoi, Vietnam. It was considered the symbol of courageous capital in wars. The Bridge was a connection for transporting thousand of rice tones from Northern and Northern Central areas of Vietnam to Dien Bien Phu battle and contributed to the win of Vietnam army against French in 1954. Many spans of the bridge were destroyed. The left spans remaining today remind us of an unforgettable past. The Long Bien Bridge was built from 1899 to 1902 and designed by French. However, it was constructed by Vietnamese workers. The Bridge was originally named Paul Doumer, but it was named Long Bien or Cai River Bridge by Vietnamese, but Long Bien is the most popular name for this bridge.
