Anping Bridge

2024/4/14 come here to punch in. A very good stone bridge, it is said that it is 2.5 kilometers long, but it is currently under maintenance, and the bridge can only walk about 400 meters. Seeing the huge long stone strips covered by the bridge, I really admire the greatness of the ancients~ such a huge, heavy stone strips, from mining, processing, transportation to the paving, it is really not easy! Anping Bridge is free to open, the lake under the bridge is very clear, and even fish can be seen swimming in the water. This is a memorable bridge!

Anping Bridge is the longest beam stone bridge in the world in the middle ages, connecting Jinjiang and Nan'an, and the longest existing seaport Dashi Bridge in China. It is a masterpiece of ancient bridge architecture. Now it is partially closed for maintenance, and it can only take the Nan'an side. The slabs on the bridge are uneven and full of historical imprints.

The longest ancient stone bridge has now become a park. The surrounding scenery is not bad. It is being repaired when I go, and I can only walk halfway. There are local specialties in the surrounding area, frozen, fist mother, hahaha. . . .

Anping Bridge is also known as Wuli Bridge. As the name implies, the bridge is 5 miles long, far more than Luoyang Bridge. During the Song Dynasty, there was a bay between Jinjiang and Nan'an, and Anping Bridge was located in the narrowest part of the bay. Although the narrowest, there were still 5 miles, so the bridge was built here. The bridge built a pavilion, there are also pavilions that have been built in the past, the super-long stone form the bridge. Now the bay has long been destroyed, and there are houses on both sides. At present, Anping Bridge can not be reached, the open part is only hundreds of meters, a towering white tower of light tower standing at the head of the East Bridge, still worshipped incense.

On March 4, 1961, Anping Bridge was announced by the State Council of the People's Republic of China as China's "first batch of key cultural relics protection units in the country". On July 25, 2021, Quanzhou: Song Yuan China's World Ocean Commercial Center was considered and adopted by the 44th World Heritage Conference, and was successfully listed in the World Heritage List, becoming China's 56th World Heritage Site. Anping Bridge is one of 22 representative monuments and sites. Today, Anpingqiao Park is built, tree-lined, is a good place for Jinjiang citizens to relax, entertain, and escape the heat. I stand on the quaint stone bridge bricks, facing the sea breeze, and still feel the wisdom of the people of Quanzhou in the Southern Song Dynasty.
