400 years ago, the stone arch bridge in Ming Dynasty was washed away. What losses did it cause to ancient culture?

This year, the flood disaster is extremely serious. On July 6, a flood broke out in Xuancheng, Anhui Province, causing serious damage to the stone arch bridge 400 years ago. The damaged stone arch bridge is called Lecheng Bridge, which was built in Jiajing period of Ming Dynasty. This bridge has a long history. In 2004, it was established as a key cultural relic protection object in Anhui Province. Now that the bridge has been washed away by the flood, it is difficult to recover, and it may be washed away once.

The destruction of this 400-year-old stone arch bridge reminds me of the destruction and disappearance of Yuanmingyuan, which extends to the disappearance of ancient historical relics caused by man-made destruction and natural destruction. This time, this 400-year-old stone arch bridge was destroyed by the flood, which caused certain losses to ancient culture.

First of all, the erosion of stone arch bridge is not conducive to the inheritance of ancient culture. The development of a culture has its own origin, development process, development influence and development result. The development of ancient culture is a continuous process. The destruction of stone arch bridge is a discontinuity in the development history of ancient culture, which destroys a continuous development process of ancient culture and is not conducive to the inheritance and development of ancient culture in the future.

Secondly, this stone arch bridge has a long history of 400 years. If it disappears, it will deal a heavy blow to ancient culture. Because this stone arch bridge has developed for 400 years, it certainly has its own advantages. It has been passed down to this day, with exquisite craftsmanship of ancient artists and excellent ancient history and culture. It is equivalent to the inheritance of ancient excellent history and culture. If it disappears, the ancient excellent traditional culture and exquisite architectural technology may no longer exist.

China ancient culture is profound and has a long history. The development of ancient culture today must have its own advantages. Only by protecting ancient culture, making it endless and continuing, can we develop ancient culture in a longer term.

In a word, the destruction of stone arch bridge is not conducive to the inheritance and development of ancient culture, and it is a fault in the history of ancient cultural development.
