Jingning is the hometown of covered bridges. There are hundreds of antique covered bridges in Jingning, which was the gathering place of villagers in those days and also a remarkable landmark building in Shexiang. In particular, Hujiao, Dongfeng Bridge, Baihe Bridge, Pingqiao, Longtan Bridge, Beixi Bridge and Mei Cheng Bridge and Dida Bridge in Dachikeng on Xiaqiao Bridge have unique architectural style and a charm of ancient buildings. Nowadays, Jingning covered bridge has condensed into a kind of tourism culture, which has become the object for tourists and photographers to stop and watch and study folk customs. Each covered bridge attracts tourists with its unique and charming stories.

Every covered bridge here has a touching story: Hujiao in Daji Township is a square covered bridge, with a length of 17.9 meters and a width of 15.3 meters. It is said that this bridge was built by a silversmith named Hu, because the silversmith made a fortune in silver mining. In order to commemorate this family history, this covered bridge was built. On the other hand, Guan Qiao is a three-story, three-eave, two-hole cantilever beam wooden bridge. This covered bridge is 27 meters long, 7. 1 m wide and 9.5 meters high. It was built in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty (1736- 1795). Dongkeng Xiaqiao was built in the 28th year of Kangxi in Qing Dynasty (1689), which is a symbol of suffering from war. It turned out that when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was in Dongkeng Village, a remote village in Jingning, Zhejiang Province, it became a refuge for Ou and Yue people who did not want to move northward to Jianghuai. These refugees recuperated here and developed Dongkeng. In the Northern Song Dynasty, the Vietnamese peasants in the southwest rose in wisdom, and the remaining Ou Yue people in southern Zhejiang responded one after another. After learning that the Ouyue people "rebelled", the court immediately sent Yang Department to the northern border to suppress it, and the village of Ouyue people was immediately killed and robbed, which was the first tragic military disaster suffered by Dongkeng. The second major military disaster in Dongkeng was in the 15th year of Kangxi (1676). At that time, the defeated troops led by Min Fandi retreated to Dongkeng, burning and looting, and turned Dongkeng into ruins. Later, the court ordered immigrants from Fujian and other places to move here. After these new immigrants gained a firm foothold, they jointly built a covered bridge running through Dongkeng Village and Ma Xian Palace. Many covered bridges in other parts of Shexiang have the same touching stories as Dongkeng Xiaqiao, which has become an important wealth of a place's village history, township history and local culture.
