Chéngyáng Wind & Rain Bridge

TIME : 2016/2/17 11:34:09

The grandest of over 100 nail-less wind-and-rain bridges in the area, this photogenic black-and-white structure (78m) was built from cedar and stone over 12 years in the 1910s. It features towers with upturned eaves, pavilions where people gather to socialise or take shelter from the elements, and a sweeping corridor with handrails and benches – a picture of pure poetry.
