Qīngcǎo Wō Bridge

Qīngcǎo Wō Bridge is located in Qīngcǎowō Group, Zēngjiāpíng Village, Zǎoxī Township, Fèngxīn County, and is a structure dating back to the Qing Dynasty. The bridge is a single-arch granite structure built with brick and stone, with an arch span of 7.4 meters, a height of 7 meters, and a deck width of 8 meters. Granite slabs are laid horizontally across the bridge surface, and railings run along both sides. It runs from east to west. At the eastern end of the bridge, there is a railing made of granite, standing 1 meter high and extending 10 meters. Stone pillars are erected on the eastern railing, inscribed with the characters “Námó Āmítuófó” (Homage to Amitabha Buddha). The Qīngcǎo Wō stone arch bridge holds significant reference value for the study of transportation and bridge construction during that period.
