▲ The Three Natural Bridges scenic area is known for its three natural stone arch bridges: Tianlong Bridge, Qinglong Bridge, and Black Dragon Bridge, forming a cluster of natural bridges. These bridges are majestic, unique, perilous, beautiful, secluded, and extraordinary, having withstood tens of millions of years of natural forces. At the bottom of the Tianlong Bridge pit in the Three Natural Bridges lies the ancient-style Tianfu Posthouse, with its blue tiles and gray walls. Originally built in the second year of Tang Wude (619 AD), it was a crucial post station between "Zuantianpu" and "Baiguopu," serving as an important relay for official information between Fuzhou and Qianzhou in ancient times, before being destroyed by war. This building is located in the Wulong sinkhole, beneath the Qinglong Bridge of the Three Natural Bridges. A valley road, approximately 5 meters wide, runs along the bottom of the pit, resembling an ancient post road suitable for wooden carts and horseback riding. The posthouse is situated beside this road, with its roof overshadowed by Tianlong Bridge.

▲ The Tianfu Posthouse is an ancient post station ruin located at the bottom of the Tianlong Bridge pit in Chongqing's Three Natural Bridges. It was originally built in the second year of Wude in the Tang Dynasty (619 AD) as an official posthouse for transmitting documents and receiving officials between Fuzhou and Qianzhou during the Tang Dynasty, but was later destroyed by war. The existing buildings were rebuilt in 2005 for the filming of "Curse of the Golden Flower," based on historical records, as a replica Han-Tang style courtyard. It includes over 20 blue-tiled, gray-walled houses, stables, and post roads. The roof is covered by the Tianlong Bridge rock wall, and it is surrounded by karst landforms.
