<ctag id="104909" type="4" businesstype="0"># Humanities and History Discovery</ctag> Exploration notes: ◎ An ancient road, connecting the hot springs; an ancient bridge, spanning thousands of years. The Suixi Bridge, which was built during the Great View of the Northern Song Dynasty, is the main road of land transportation in ancient Tong'an County. It is the only place to enter Quanzhou. There were two ancient Suiquan roads that met here, which is very valuable for transportation. ◎ Suixi Bridge is named after the Suixi under the bridge, and the Suixi is said to be rich in nettles on both sides of the stream. The stream originated from the Bailuling, which is at the junction of Jimei and Changtai. It meets Xuxi Town and finally injects Xinglin Bay. ◎ This bridge is laid with 9 sections of 45 granite rock slabs, a total length of 73 meters, with 8 piers and 9 holes. The surface is a boat-shaped pier that is conducive to water division. ◎ The ancient bridge is east-west, and there is a Guanyin Academy on the east side, which is dedicated to the famous Sizhou ancient Buddha in Sulu. After changing to Fengguanyin, there are two tall kapok trees outside the stage. This combination of bridge and temple is not only the standard configuration of the covered bridge, but also the ancient stone bridges like this are very common. ◎ The west side is the rice field, and then go south is Anmin, Yuyu and Shenqingyu. Finally, enter Zhangzhou and go directly to Nanyue. From the end of Song to the end of Qing Dynasty, there are 12 shops on the ancient road from east to west. One of them is the Xixi shop for postage. ◎ Due to the construction of Shantou Reservoir and Shidou Reservoir in the 1950s, the current Yanxi Bridge is not seen in the past. The wide waterway under the bridge is covered by silt and water grass. The favorites can be said to be those buffalo and scalpers. ◎ The ancient bridge is still there, and the ancient charm still exists. Walking on the ancient bridge, although I can't feel the hurried footsteps of people coming and going in the past, but it also exudes a secluded ancient meaning, which is very suitable for humanistic and historical lovers like me to explore. ◎ It is still 10 kilometers away from Jimei City to Luxi Bridge, and it is a part of Xiamen's urban changes. Xiamen has seen the rapid development of the fishing village island to the seaside city to the special economic zone. The faster the development, the easier the ancient bridge will be forgotten. ◎ Quxi Bridge and Tong'an Wuxian No.1 Xiqiao, Guankou Shenqing Bridge and Botanical Garden Quxi Bridge are four ancient stone bridges of Xiamen cultural and insurance units, and are now municipal cultural relics protection units in Xiamen.
