QuanJia Bridge
QuanJia Bridge
It is located in Liuzhou Park, Luoxing Subdistrict, and was built during the Qing Dynasty. In May 2011, it was designated as a county-level cultural heritage conservation site.
QuanJia Bridge covers an area of 20 square meters. It is a single-arch stone slab flat bridge that runs in a north–south, slightly westward direction, spanning a small river within Liuzhou Park. The bridge is 11.4 meters long, with a deck width of 1.1 meters and an approach width of 1.8 meters. The bridge piers are built by stacking block stones, with capstones on top. The deck consists of two stone slabs, and there is no railing. On both sides are inscriptions such as “Reconstructed QuanJia Bridge” and “The 10th Year of the Daoguang Reign (1831),” along with symmetrical grass motifs. There are nine steps on each of the northern and southern ends. The bridge is relatively well-preserved and provides a tangible example for studying the characteristics of Qing Dynasty bridges, holding certain historical value.
QuanJia Bridge is the smallest cultural heritage ancient bridge in the county. Well-preserved and exquisitely beautiful, this small bridge is situated in an unassuming spot on the north side of Liuzhou Park. Yet, with its small bridge and flowing water, and winding paths leading to secluded spots, it adds a touch of antiquity, simplicity, and tranquility to the park.
