Dong Wind And Rain Bridge

The famous Wind and Rain Bridge in Chengyang is considered to be the most beautiful and best preserved bridge and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. There are 108 such structures in Sanjiang County but this one is the ultimate symbol of the Dong minority people.
Built in 1916, the Wind and Rain Bridge spans the Linxi River and was constructed without nails or wood and stones. There are five tower-like kiosks on the bridge which are said to resemble the flapping wings of birds.
