Love at first sight! This ancient Hakka bridge in the deep mountains is about to take off

Ganzhou's Qing dynasty bridge, shaped like the character '品', is as stunning as a turtle's back and a bird with its wings spread. It combines both artistry and practicality. The bridge has a pavilion in the middle with three pairs of symmetrical flying eaves on each side, all built with green bricks and green tiles. The archway's lintel is inscribed with the words '◎Taiping Bridge' handwritten by Lai Maojie, signifying peace and prosperity for all under heaven. At the same time, it is constructed from finely polished granite combined with lime, brown sugar, and glutinous rice paste as mortar. It shares the ingenuity of the Hakka enclosed houses.
