Xianrenqiao Xinhuangxian Bridge
brief introduction

Located in the western border of Hunan Province, Gaozhai Village, Luo Xiang, Dawan, 9 kilometers west of xinhuang dong autonomous county at the junction of Hunan and Guizhou. In the fifth year of Daoguang in Qing Dynasty (1825), Huangzhou Tanglu printed its scenery: "The two peaks are opposite, and the stream is deep, about two or three feet wide. The stone lay like a goose's tooth, hanging on the ditch, as dense as a line, about to fall. Visitors can't help but be shocked. There is a hole under the bridge called Longtan. This is a long history, if you don't turn this bridge into an illusion. " Legend has it that this stone bridge was erected by a fairy overnight, so it is called "Fairy Bridge". Xianren Bridge is one of the most famous scenic spots in Xinhuang County. In history, many poets and poets came here to recite poems, and some monks lived here all their lives because of their fascination with the scenery here. There used to be poems praising its scenery: no matter the years, the scenery is magnificent and wonderful, and it is difficult to spread. The horseshoe stone path leaves the mountain pestle, and the wild goose teeth fly in the spring and ring the strings. The blue sky is propped up by mountains on all sides, and the ancient caves around the Third Ring Road are filled with smoke. Looking ahead with a red waist, the flowing peach blossoms are different from the sky.

The bridge is a red sandstone bearing stone with a length of 26 meters, a thickness of 1 m, a height of 67 meters and a width of 1.5- 1.8 meters. The bridge deck is as smooth as a knife, flying between two cliffs. The protruding stone walls on both sides of the bridge are covered with wind house grass and dense miscellaneous trees. Spring water flows in the grass, which makes people who cross the bridge feel palpitations. The causes of Xianren Bridge are the same as those of the first bridge in the world and the overpass Nantianmen. It is formed by cracking and caving from soft rock under the guidance of two groups of oblique cracks. It is composed of two natural Liang Shi separated by clock water. Bridge opening is a triangle. At this time, the boat can sail through when the water is small and lie down when the water is big. There is a hole next to the hole, which is called Taoyuan Cave. The hole is connected with the hole, which is very strange. There are strange rocks around the bridge, and branches climb around vines. There are also fairy caves, fairy horns and fairy mirrors, which are full of mythical colors and fascinating. It is no wonder that there was a poem praised by predecessors: "A steep stone is like a fan, and flowing water breaks smoke. Taoyuan Cave, Mo Wen City, Yu Lang, including the Qin People's Shelter. " This rare natural stone arch bridge is one of the eight ancient scenic spots in eastern Guangxi. According to legend, there is music playing under the bridge in the middle of the night, such as the music of nature, so it is called "the music of Xianqiao". Huang Yougong, an itch student in Guidong in Qing Dynasty, once wrote a couplet: "The natural moat can be filled, and a bridge connects the north and the south;" The land is constantly changing, and the two sides of the strait are connected and returned. " However, because the bridge is located at the top of the mountain at an altitude of 1000 meters, and the road is steep and difficult to walk, it will be forgotten for a long time in people's memory.

After the establishment of Guidong County Tourism Bureau, a large number of investigations have been made on the tourism resources in Guidong, and tourist clues have been collected from the society. Only the local people can provide clues to the tourism bureau. According to the information I have, this natural stone arch bridge has achieved several successes in southern Hunan: the highest altitude, the longest span and the lowest terrain. The author also urgently hopes that relevant experts will further study this bridge.

One legend is that ...

Xianren Bridge and Baiheyan are 3 kilometers south of Huaihua. The so-called Xianren Bridge is a natural bridge of limestone. Legend has it that a long time ago, in order to benefit the people, immortals built a bridge over the Wushui River. When the bridge was almost completed, the farmer cock on the other side suddenly crowed in the middle of the night. The immortal mistakenly thought that it was almost dawn and was afraid of being caught by mortals, so he had to leave the unfinished bridge and return to heaven. On the other side of the bridge is Baiheyan. A rock stands on the beach, shaped like a crane spreading its wings. The breeze is blowing, and cranes move like walking in the water, which is a beautiful scenery in the urban area.
