What is the strongest bridge in the world?

 The Anji Bridge in China is the world's oldest and strongest stone arch bridge. Built between 595 and 605 AD during the Sui Dynasty, it was designed by a craftsman named Li Chun. It was the world's first segmental arch bridge to be built of stone. Over the past 1,400 years of its history , the bridge has survived ten floods, at least eight wars, and numerous earthquakes, including the 7.2-magnitude earthquake of 1966. The supporting structure remained intact, and the bridge is still in use today and remains completely safe.
