Wanshou Bridge is a famous scenic spot in Dawei ancient town, with a single arch and extraordinary momentum.

Wanshou Bridge is strong and beautiful, and it is a typical single arch stone bridge in Ming Dynasty. 1986 is listed as a key cultural relics protection unit at the county level. The old bridge is located in the east of the town. Built in the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, it was originally a three-arch wooden bridge with a wooden structure and was rebuilt twice. It was rebuilt as a single arch stone bridge in Guangxu period of Qing Dynasty. The bridge deck is inlaid with bluestone slabs, with guardrails on both sides and four beautiful stone lions at the four corners. The bridge deck and arch are both half-moons.

2. Father and son rock

There is Father and Son Rock in the southeast, which is located at the confluence of Lijiang River and Xiang Si. It is idyllic and picturesque. There is a hill by the river, and there is a hole under the hill, which is about 8 meters high, 4 meters wide and 20 meters deep, with an area of 100 square meter. There are stalactites of different sizes in the cave, which are shaped like portraits. There is a stone in the cave that is slightly smaller, like a child sitting on the south wall. The boulder in the cave looks like the father of a bald old man. It is said that there is a touching story about the origin of father and son rock: it is said that a father and son are experts in shipbuilding technology, and they turned into stone statues for a long time because they did not want to be oppressed by the government.

3. Mopanshan

On the other side of Dawei town, Mopan Mountain is the most distinctive, layered like a huge stone mill. According to textual research, the height of Mopan Mountain is obviously the result of seabed sediment accumulation thousands of years ago. At the foot of Mopan Mountain, there is also the cemetery of the famous anti-French and anti-Japanese director Tang in the late Qing Dynasty.
