Yeongdong Hongseong Bridge in Gangwon-do, South Korea, often mistaken for the Jammu National Highway.The Yeongdong Hongseong Bridge in Gangwon-do, South Korea, falsely claimed as the Jammu National Highway.

Claim:
An image of a bridge is being circulated on social media, claiming it to be part of the “Jammu National Highway,” which connects the Kashmir Valley with the rest of India.

Fact:
The viral image actually shows the Yeongdong Hongseong Bridge located in Gangwon-do, South Korea.

Evidence:

  1. Reverse Image Search Results:
    • The photo has been widely shared over the years, with claims associating it with Nepal, Indonesia, and Pakistan.
    • The earliest instance of the photo dates back to August 1, 2007, when it was uploaded on Panoramio, a platform that linked photos to Google Maps (archived in 2016).
  1. Location Verification:
    • The Panoramio user who originally posted the photo identified it as the Yeongdong Hongseong Bridge in South Korea, providing accurate coordinates.
    • A comparison of Google Maps’ Street View images and the viral photo confirms the bridge’s exact match.
  1. Supporting Sources:
    • A Korean expressway card features the bridge, identified as the “Yeongdong Hongseong Bridge.”
    • A drone video on the official YouTube channel of the Korean company Meritz (responsible for the bridge’s windbreak wall) shows a frame matching the viral image (timestamp: 2:54).

Conclusion:
The viral image does not depict the Jammu National Highway. It is a picture of the Yeongdong Hongseong Bridge in Gangwon-do, South Korea.
