Chaozhou Guangji Bridge (formerly known as Jikang Bridge, Dinghou Bridge and Jichuan Bridge, commonly known as Xiangzi Bridge)

Chaozhou Xiangqiao is so romantic,

Eighteen space shuttles and 24 continents.

24 balconies, 24 kinds,

Niu Yi only missed two documents.

This is a folk song widely sung in eastern Guangdong. The "Xiangqiao" in the Song Dynasty is Guangji Bridge, which is also called "Four Ancient Bridges in China" with Luoyang Bridge in Quanzhou, Fujian, Lugou Bridge in Beijing and Zhao Zhouqiao in Zhaoxian County, Hebei Province.

Guangji Bridge is a floating beam composite structure, which consists of two sections of Liang Shi Bridge in the east and west and a floating bridge in the middle. The beam bridge consists of three parts: pier, Liang Shi and bridge pavilion.

Guangji Bridge was built in the seventh year of Southern Song Dynasty (A.D. 1 17 1). It is the earliest opening and closing bridge in the world. 18 shuttle was demolished and transformed into a three-hole steel frame and two high-piled cap bridges. It was rebuilt in 2003 -2007 to restore the face of the Ming Dynasty.

The first tower

Guangji Building, built in the third year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty (1370), has been maintained to varying degrees in past dynasties and is a national key cultural relics protection unit. The gatehouse of Guangjimen is a palace-style three-story attic resting at the top of the mountain, and the outer door has the original "East is Spring" threshold. The building is placed on a tall and thick abutment, with an arch in the middle, seven rooms wide and five rooms deep, supported by wooden columns in front and back, and stepped out of the city wall to become a arcade.

However, the original Guangji Building in Ming Dynasty no longer exists, leaving only some components. Designers have to refer to the architectural forms of the Ming Dynasty left in Chaozhou according to the appearance of Guangji Building in the ancient city map of Chaozhou in the Qing Dynasty and the style of Guangji Building written by painters in the Qing Dynasty, and then carry out the design, adopting the method of "falling off the shelf and rebuilding", that is, installing the old components left in the old building in the original position, reflecting the principle of "repairing the old as the old".

The original name of Guangjimen Pagoda is "Guangji Pagoda", also known as "Hanjiang Pagoda", which is commonly known as "Dongmen Pagoda" among the seven original pagodas in Chaozhou City, controlling Yue and protecting Zhenqiao.

Crocodiles crossing the autumn wind

Crocodiles haunted Chaozhou in ancient times, so Hanjiang was originally called Crocodile Creek (Evil Creek). According to legend, in the 14th year of Yuanhe in Tang Xianzong (8 19), Han Yu, assistant minister of punishments, stabbed the tide. Because I heard that crocodiles appeared and endangered people's lives and property, I set up an altar at the ferry on April 24, 2008. This is the origin of the crocodile sacrifice platform. The river in front of the stage is crisp in autumn, and when the clouds are light and the wind is light, it can sail on three sides with one wind, so it is called "Crocodile Crossing the Autumn Wind" and listed as one of the "Eight Scenes of Chaozhou".
