Liulin Stone Bridge

　　Liulin Stone Bridge is located on the Old Canal west of South Liulin Village, 12.5 kilometers northwest of the city. It was recorded in the "Chenzhou Prefecture Records" of the 19th year of Emperor Qianlong’s reign (1754) in the Qing Dynasty. It is said to have been built during the Ming Dynasty. The stone bridge spans the Old Canal from east to west, with spans ranging from 2 to 2.7 meters (the middle three arches are 2.7 meters), a total length of 17 meters, a width of 7 meters, and a height of 2.5 meters. It is a five-arch red granite roller foundation stone arch bridge, which remains well-preserved to this day. In 1988, it was designated as a county-level cultural relics protection unit by the county government.

　　Historically, this area was the site of the famous ancient battlefield of the Chu-Han “Guling Battle.”
