Introduction

This ancient bridge located at the head of Xiaqiao Village, Suxi Town, Taishun, was built in 1745 during the tenth year of Qing Emperor Qianlong's reign. It is 40 meters long, 6 meters wide and stands 9.5 meters above the surface of the water. The bridge has 15 bridge houses, and is unsupported by bridge piers. The bridge body is constructed of rough wood in the form of a figure-eight-shaped extended arm wooden arch, which is very rare. Over the bridge, a flying eave is erected, which looks majestic and spectacular. On the roof of the bridge, there are three exquisite and simple ancient wells, which are curved and winding. On the other side of the bridge, there are two high mountains, and the red bridge body forms a light and beautiful picture in the blue water and green mountains.
