🎉 Ready to discover one of the coolest hidden gems on the Chinese mainland? Meet Jiefang Bridge in Fuzhou, a city in the Fujian province that's been connecting people and stories since 1093! 🌉
Originally known as Wanshou or "Longevity Bridge," this stone marvel first spanned the Minjiang River during the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127). Over centuries it weathered floods and repairs, then was rebuilt in the 1990s as the sleek, reinforced concrete structure we cross today.
When night falls, the bridge transforms into a glowing ribbon across the water. City lights dance on the river, turning it into a live canvas that's perfect for your next Insta post. 📸✨
Movie buffs might recall Jiefang Bridge from the 2015 film "Lost and Love" starring Andy Lau and Jing Boran. 🎬 That epic nighttime scene? It was shot right here on the Minjiang River.
Travel tip: Walk the bridge at sunset, sample street snacks nearby, and let the blend of history and modern energy sweep you off your feet. 🚶♂️🏞️ Fuzhou's story is written in every stone and light beam.
