Excuse me, are there any famous bridges in Wenzhou? They are in urgent need, preferably some historical ones.

Xidong Bridge

Xidong Bridge: lounge bridge structure, located in Dongzhen Town, Sixi Town, Taishun. Because it is located in the upper reaches of Dongxi, the locals also call it "Shangqiao". Xidong Bridge was founded in Qin Long in the fourth year of Ming Dynasty (157), with a bridge length of 42 meters, a veranda height of 1 meters and a clear span of 31 meters. The bridge is formed by the intersection of two layers of * * * bones, and nine arch bones are placed side by side with another layer of eight arch bones, forming a stable beam frame. A triangular wooden frame is placed in the arch to strengthen the role of lateral force. In order to protect the arch bones and beams and prevent wind and rain erosion, wind plates are installed on both sides. The arch toes at both ends are supported on the abutment respectively, and the abutment is built on the cliffs on both sides with granite blocks Shi Lei, and the passages at both ends are stamped with stones. There are 15 long-corridor bridge houses built on the beam frame, three of which are pavilions with wings flying at both ends. Crouching crouching tiger, fighting around the clouds, the dragon is arrogant, and there is quite a tendency to smoke. It is one of the best lounge bridge in Taishun.

The bridge spans the Dongxi River, so it is called Xidong Bridge. In the middle, there are three pavilions rising high, and the wings at both ends are flying, like crouching tiger, which is quite smoking. The stream under the bridge is crystal clear. On one side of the bridge is a distant mountain, and nearby are two higher peaks, one called Lion Peak and the other called General Peak. According to the local people, the bridge and its surrounding environment are in a treasure trove of geomantic omen. Against the backdrop of distant mountains, Xidong Bridge is more beautiful and light.

Beijian Bridge

Beijian Bridge is located at the ancient ferry at the confluence of the east, south and north streams of Shangqiao Village. It was built in the 13th year of Kangxi (1671) and rebuilt in the 8th year of Jiaqing (183). The bridge is more than 51.7 meters long, nearly 6 meters wide and 11.22 meters high. Located in the northwest of Sixi Shangqiao, with a distance of 1 km, it spans Beixi, so it is called "Beijian Bridge". The village is named after the bridge. Its structure and shape are similar to those of Shangqiao. The bridge deck is curved and arched, and there are dozens of bridge houses built on it. In the middle, three of them protrude into two overlapping eaves, and the four wings are raised in the shape of Dapeng spreading its wings. There are several wing rooms on both sides of the bridge. The whole bridge is made of blue bricks and blue tiles, carved beams and painted buildings, and painted with vermilion. There is a thousand-year-old Cinnamomum camphora on the stone steps on the side of the bridge. Under the dusk, the trees are shaded from the sky, and the fragrance is far away, which sets off Beijian Bridge's extraordinary solemnity and elegance.

The surrounding environment of Beijian Bridge is beautiful, and two streams meet at the bridge. The stream is crystal clear, and there is a small stone bridge built with Liang Shi on the stream, which is followed by steps. Whenever the stream rises, the small stone bridge will be submerged under the water. Along the stream bank, a path leads people to the bridge and the village. Two big camphor trees stand at the bridge. The thicker one is more than two meters in diameter. These two trees are thousands of years old. The roots of the big tree firmly grasp the earth and stone around the bridge foundation, ensuring that it has withstood the erosion of hundreds of years of wind and rain without serious problems. Walking along the path to Beijian Bridge from a distance, the dense crowns of two big trees are like the beards of an old man gently caressing the ancient bridge and the quaint houses around it, looming. A small stone street at the bridge head is the center of the whole village. On one side is a covered bridge, and on the other side is a residential building. The eaves of the covered bridges and the eaves of the houses are staggered on the small streets, naturally forming a stormy street. There are some stone benches and wooden chairs under the bridge and eaves, and people can find a place to rest at will. When the villagers have nothing to do, they rest at the bridge, talk about everything and buy and sell.

at the beginning of its construction, Beijian Bridge considered the integration with neighboring buildings. This can be seen from the connection between the bridge and the building: tenons are reserved on the bridge columns to connect with the building. The shape of the bridge is as simple as folk customs, and it is shaped like a figure of eight along the structure. There are four rows of square columns on the bridge deck, covered with a blue tile roof. The mountain flowers at both ends are in the shape of resting mountains. The central lifting house of the bridge is also the rest peak. The inclined ridge rises very high, so it looks very light. The structural part is sealed with oil-red lacquer wood flashing to avoid wind and rain erosion. The whole bridge structure is reasonable, the proportion is well-proportioned, and the gray tiles are red, which reflects the green mountains and clear waters and becomes a landscape painting.

"As time goes by, winter and spring fade away, and cold and summer suddenly flow easily." Time has passed, and the pace of history has never stopped. Life is difficult, and it is difficult to cross the road, but it still can't stop people from running. On the country road in the mountains, how many figures have been left in a hurry since ancient times? The ancient road is long and carries a profound traveling culture. The Duntou Bridge and Pubin Bridge on Tongshan Avenue, a famous ancient road in Taishun, are undoubtedly important carriers of ancient road culture.

Duntou Bridge is located in a village with mixed surnames in Liufeng Township. There are still a large number of commercial buildings around the covered bridge, telling the prosperity of popularity and commerce in that year. Today, although Duntou Bridge and Old Street have cooled down. However, the commercial atmosphere of that year still exists, and the culture of sitting businessmen and businessmen has penetrated into every brick and tile here.

Yayang Pubin Bridge, which is located on Tongshan Avenue with Duntou Bridge, was donated by people from Taishun, Shouning, Tongshan, Pingyang and Zherong when it was built. After the completion of the bridge, some donations have not been used up. So a tea pavilion was built at the bridge, and people cooked tea for passers-by to drink for free. In the old shop of Langwu, we met Fu Dacheng, an old man who lived as a bearer for most of his life. He is eighty-four years old this year. At the age of sixteen, he began to carry the burden for the merchants who traveled in Tongshan and Taishun. The bearer must have a very good physique, and it takes one day and one night to get to Luo Yang from Tongshan. You can only rest for a few minutes in the road pavilion and drink some mountain spring water. When we arrived at Pubin Bridge, we bought some rice cakes in the bridge house and went to the tea kiosk to drink two bowls of tea. The goods on their shoulders must arrive in Luo Yang on time, so as not to miss the owner of the Luo Yang store to use these fresh goods for the morning market. The people who carry the burden are doing manual labor that travels long distances, and the hardships of their lives can be imagined.

Not only merchants and bearers, but also scholars, artists, government officials, charlatans, wandering doctors, beggars, etc., who pass through the Duntou Bridge and Pubin Bridge, walk on this ancient road, forming different scenes in the long scroll of traveling culture and history.
