    The Qingming Bridge was built in the Ming Dynasty and is the oldest, largest and best preserved single-hole stone arch bridge on the ancient canal in Wuxi. Kangxi and Qianlong emperors in the Qing Dynasty passed here when they visited the south. The scenery is beautiful.

    20220904 In the evening: 1. The "Qingming Bridge" is located in the "Qingming Bridge Ancient Canal" in the scenic spot of 4A. The scenic spot is directly accessible by bus, and it is easy to stop by car. The park is free of charge. The tall archway of the "Canal Ancient Bridge" at the north gate of the scenic spot stands tall and solemn. 2. The Qingming Bridge is at the intersection of the ancient canal and Bodu River. The scenic spot is very simple, there is a north-south pedestrian street on both sides of the canal to form the main body, the night view is particularly charming, and the color of the lights will change regularly. All kinds of shops have everything, among which the shops selling flower lamps have a high value, and the colorful shiny lantern styles have not been seen when I recently traveled to the major night markets in the country. On the "Dagong Bridge" and "Qingming Bridge" across the canal, you can take pictures of the prosperity of the two sides of the Straits with bright lights and crowds of lights. The cruise ship is like a meteor across the river. Every overpass bridge hole across the scenic spot is not lonely, some are painted with painted murals, which are petty bourgeoisie photo spots; Some are shops, bustling under the rolling bridge on the head wheels, modern and ancient atmosphere intertwined, is also a highlight of the scenic spot. 3. The humanistic landscape is concentrated in the fork point of the southern part of the canal, and there are several kiln sites (similar to a large soil boiler), including "under the armpit kiln", "to the straight kiln", "old middle kiln", "chen kiln" and "Liuwai kiln" (inside the museum). The "Wuxi Kiln Group Site Museum" is on the south side of the canal fork point. You have to buy another ticket for 10 yuan and open the door at night. The museum is divided into two floors. The first floor introduces the historical development and production process of the kiln in the form of graphics and text, stone carvings, cultural relics, models, bronze carvings, sites and other forms. The second floor is the history of the bricks and tiles of each specific dynasties. At present, on the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, there are strings of red lanterns hanging everywhere on the ancient wind street. The jade rabbit moon at the fork point of the canal has a high value. It is a photo spot. There are sometimes performances on the stage diagonally opposite at night. 4, my dinner is eaten at the north gate entrance not far from the "Xin Wanxin Yinsi noodles", the store has a 90-year-old non-legacy master skills, the noodles are very fine, the color and fragrance are complete, reflecting the southerners' excellence in food. After dinner, I watched a talk show at the "Book Wharf" at the east end of Dagongqiao. It was 98 yuan 1.5 hour, plus the host's 5 actors appeared, of which 3 people had more laughs, especially the interaction between the host and the live audience at first made me think the audience was childcare, but later found that it was not. Highlight its ability to respond. After the end, all audiences and actors light up their mobile phones together. 5. After the performance, they will leave the scenic spot, including the 1.5 hour sharing time of 4.5 hour watching the talk show, and the whole day trip ends, taking 2.9 thousands of steps.

    Qingming Bridge is the representative landscape of the whole scenic area, which was built in the Ming and Wanli years. It was built by donations from the two sons of Qin Jun, the owner of "Jichangyuan" in Wuxi. Because the two brothers were named Taiqing and Taining respectively, they were named "Qingning Bridge". The ancient bridge was rebuilt by Wu Xingzuo, Wuxi County, in the eighth year of Emperor Kangxi of Qing Dynasty (1666 A.D.). During the period of Daoguang, the name of Emperor Daoguang was changed to Qingming Bridge because of the taboo of the name of Emperor Daoguang, and it was also called "Qingming Bridge". Qingming Bridge is a single-hole stone arch bridge, 43.2 meters long, 5.5 meters wide and 8.5 meters high. Its span is 13.1 meters. It is made of granite. The arch ring is a common sectional parallel form in the south of the Yangtze River. There are 11 sections in total. On the circle stones on both sides of the circle hole, each has its inscriptions. Because of the high-low relationship between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, the East and West Stone classes are different. There are 46 stone classes in the East and 43 stone classes in the west. Walk up Qingming Bridge in the evening. It was quite pleasant to see Zhao Mengfu, a calligrapher of the Yuan Dynasty, who wrote seven-character poems "Night Popperdu" on the river when he visited it. Autumn Manliang River Boduchuan, everybody travels alone and leisurely. Wu Shi was found in the ruins of Zixu, and a wine boat was carried by the Meri River. Bridge willow shadows shadowed, the heart of the river ripple moonlight hanging. Xiaolai Mo sent back to Ji, love to listen to fishing songs everywhere.
