The Banghwa Bridge ({{Korean|hangul=방화대교}}) is a bridge in South Korea. It crosses the Han River, connecting the Gangseo District, Seoul with Goyang, Gyeonggi Province. The bridge is a part of the Incheon International Airport Expressway. At over 2.5 km in length, it is the longest bridge to cross the Han River.{{cite web|url=http://terms.naver.com/entry.nhn?docId=1820591&cid=1602&categoryId=1602|script-title=ko:방화대교[ 傍花大橋 ]|work=Naver / Encyclopedia of Korean Culture|publisher=Naver|language=Korean|accessdate=20 January 2014}} Though mostly a girder bridge, the middle 540m section is an arch truss, resembling the shape of an airplane taking off.
