Are there any famous bridges in Wenzhou? They are in urgent need, preferably something historical.

Dong Xi bridge

Dongxiqiao: Covered bridge structure, located in Dongzhen Town, Sixi Town, Taishun. Because it is located in the upper reaches of Dongxi River, the locals also call it "Shangqiao". Dongxi Bridge was built in Qin Long in the fourth year of Ming Dynasty (1570), with a length of 42 meters, a veranda height of 10 meter and a clear span of 3 1 meter. The bridge is formed by the intersection of two layers of * * * bones, and nine arch bones are placed side by side with eight arch bones of the other layer to form a stable beam frame. A triangular wooden frame is placed in the arch to strengthen the lateral force. In order to protect the arch bones and beams from wind and rain erosion, wind shields are installed on both sides. The arches at both ends are respectively supported on the abutment, which is built on the cliffs at both sides with granite blocks, and the passages at both ends are stamped with stones. There are 15 long covered bridge houses on the beam frame, three of which are pavilions with wings flying at both ends. Crouching tiger, hidden dragon, fighting around the clouds, leaping forward and leaping forward, there is a lot of smoke. It is one of the best covered bridges in Taishun.

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

Beijian bridge

Beijian Bridge is located at the ancient ferry at the intersection of three streams in Shangqiao Village. It was founded in the 13th year of Kangxi (167 1 year) and rebuilt in the 8th year of Jiaqing (1803). The bridge is 51.7m long, nearly 6m wide and1.22m high. Located in the northwest of Sixi Shangqiao, with a distance of 1 km, it crosses Beixi, so it is called "Beijian Bridge". The village is named after the bridge, and its structure and shape are similar to those of Shangqiao. The bridge deck is curved and arched. There are dozens of bridge houses built on it, three of which protrude into two overlapping eaves in the middle, with four wings towering and spreading like Dapeng. There are several wings on both sides of the bridge. The whole bridge is made of blue bricks and tiles, carved beams and painted buildings, and painted with cinnabar. There is a Millennium camphor tree on the stone steps by the bridge. Under the dusk, the trees cover the sky, and the fragrance is far away, which sets off the extraordinary solemnity and elegance of the North Bridge.

The surrounding environment of Beijian Bridge is beautiful, and two streams meet on the bridge. The stream is crystal clear, and there is a small stone bridge built by Liang Shi, followed by steps. Whenever the river rises, this small stone bridge will be submerged under water. Along the river bank, a path leads people to bridges and villages. Two big camphor trees stand by the bridge. The thicker one is more than two meters in diameter. These two trees have a history of thousands of years. The roots of the big tree firmly grasped the earth and stone around the bridge foundation, ensuring that it has withstood the erosion of wind and rain for hundreds of years without serious problems. Walking along the path to the north to build a bridge, from a distance, the dense crowns of two big trees are like an old man's beard gently stroking the ancient bridge and the surrounding quaint houses, looming. A small stone street at the bridgehead is the center of the whole village. There is a covered bridge on one side and a residential building on the other. The eaves of covered bridges and houses crisscross on 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. The villagers have nothing to do but rest by the bridge, talk about everything and buy and sell.

At the beginning of the 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 custom, and it is splayed along the structure. There are four rows of square columns on the bridge deck, covered with blue tile roofs. The mountain flowers at both ends are in the shape of a mountain. The central lifting house of the bridge is also the rest peak. The oblique ridge rises very high, so it looks very light. The structural part is sealed with oil red lacquer wood to avoid wind and rain erosion. The structure of the whole bridge is reasonable, the proportion is well-proportioned, and the gray tiles are red tiles, which set off the green mountains and clear waters and become a landscape painting.

"Winter and spring are easy to thank, and cold and summer are easy to flow." As time goes by, the pace of history never stops. Life is hard, and crossing the road is hard, but it still can't stop people from running. How many figures have been left in a hurry on the mountain country road since ancient times? The ancient road is long and carries profound tourism 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 many surnames in Liu Feng Township. There are still a large number of commercial buildings around the covered bridge, telling the popularity and commercial prosperity of the year. Today, although the temperature of Duntou Bridge and Old Street has dropped. However, the commercial atmosphere of that year still exists, and the Jia culture of sitting merchants has penetrated into every brick and tile here.

Yang Ya Pubin Bridge, which is on Tongshan Avenue with Duntou Bridge, was built with donations from people in Taishun, Shouning, Tongshan, Pingyang and Zherong. After the completion of the bridge, some donations have not been used up. So a tea pavilion was built on the bridge, and people cooked tea for passers-by to drink for free. In Langwu's old shop, we met Fu Dacheng, an old man who had been a porter for most of his life. He is eighty-four years old this year. At the age of 16, he began to carry burdens for merchants from Tongshan and Taishun. People must have a very good physique, and it takes a day and a night to get from Tongshan to Luo Yang. You can only rest for a few minutes in the road pavilion and drink some mountain spring water. When we arrived at Pubinqiao, we bought some rice cakes in Qiaowu 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 Luo Yang store owner's morning market with these fresh goods. People who carry burdens are doing long-distance manual labor, and the hardships of life can be imagined.

Passing through Duntou Bridge and Pubin Bridge, not only businessmen and bearers, but also scholars, artists, government officials, charlatans, doctors and beggars walked on this ancient road. They form different pictures in the long scroll of tourism culture and history.
