Walking on the side of the Luding Bridge gives me a sense of the hard times when the Red Army had to cross the Luding Bridge, and there were only a few of the 22 soldiers left, and there were the rolling waters of the Dadu River, and there were machine guns across the bridge. We're all staggering on the top, standing on the top, standing on the top, standing on the bottom, standing on the top, not to mention staggering on the steel ropes, avoiding machine-gun fire, so we're going to cherish the hard-won peace we've had.

Knowledge of the history and culture, eat local characteristics, may be because of the weekend, or a line for a while, when standing in the middle of the cable bridge, see the water under the feet, shock waves, think of the heroic soldiers of that year, defend the country, with bullets and bullets flying over the bridge, awe!

Worth a look and experience the hardships at that time, but I am timid and did not walk past, afraid that half of the heights will come back 😀
