Introduction
Taishun County is a mountainous county in the south of Zhejiang Province, adjacent to Wencheng and Jingning, and borders Fujian Province, with a total area of about 1,700 square kilometers. It is known as "nine mountains, half water, half fields". The terrain is rugged, with overlapping peaks, and there are 179 peaks above one kilometer, with an average altitude of more than 490 meters. With the evolution of history, Taishun has become a "Shangri-La" where celebrities take refuge, leaving behind a rich cultural heritage. Taishun Langqiao, as one of the most outstanding representatives, originally referred to a bridge with a roof. At that time, Taishun villages were scattered, the population was sparse, and the transportation was difficult. Therefore, people would build shelters for people to rest on the side of the stone-paved road. Building a roof on the bridge can not only protect the bridge, but also serve as a shelter for the wind and rain, and some of them even have rooms for people to live in. As for the name "Langqiao", it wasn't until November 1996 that China Photography News published a report on Taishun Langqiao, which attracted widespread attention. Since then, more and more scholars and media have begun to pay attention to this national treasure. Address Taishun County, Wenzhou City, Zhejiang Province, Suxi Town
