2. In the third year of the Republic of China (19 14), the Tuojiang River was really flooded, with a flow of1200m3 per second. Houses and trees swept away by the flood in the upstream were swept away by the bridge roof, and the diversion tip of pier Nan 'an 1 was hit, which caused great trauma to Hongqiao. At this time, Tian, the newly appointed commander of Xiangxi, presided over the restoration of Hongqiao in order to show the new reform policy after the revolution and beautify the ancient city of Fenghuang.
3. After the Hongqiao was repaired, the pier was reinforced, the bridge deck was repaired, the wooden fence on the bridge was removed, and it was changed into a wooden house with wooden hanging feet, which was consistent with the length of the bridge deck. There are 65,438+02 wooden houses of the same size on both sides, as well as Tute, Nanza and small department stores. There is a 3.6-meter-wide pedestrian corridor in the middle, which is covered with a roof to keep out the sun and rain. A row of flower windows are installed on both sides of the top, which can not only light up, but also facilitate air convection. There is a archway door at each end of the bridge deck, and the word "Hongqiao" is inscribed by Tian Ying.
