Bridges with wooden galleries topped by pavilions and pillars
The most remarkable of the Wind and Rain Bridges is the Yongji Bridge, located in Chengyang. Built between 1911 and 1924, it is 76 meters long, 3.4 meters wide and 10.6 meters high. Made entirely of wood, without nails or screws, it evokes a dragon undulating on the river. Five finely decorated pavilions with curved roofs punctuate the structure. Initially financed by the villagers, maintenance of the bridge now benefits from state subsidies. Listed as a historic monument, it remains a masterpiece of Dong architecture.
