The restoration of the 500-year-old bridge in Ganzhou, Jiangxi Province has been completed. What is the origin of this bridge?
Since June, heavy rainfall has occurred in many places in southern China, and a 500-year-old ancient bridge in longnan county, Ganzhou, Jiangxi Province was destroyed by floods. Taiping Bridge is a national key cultural relic protection object. This bridge was built in Zhengde period of Ming Dynasty, with a total length of 50 meters. It is a two-story stone arch bridge with two holes, three piers and four arches. He was flooded for so many years because of the special design of bridge opening.

Due to the heavy rainfall in Jiangxi this year, the guardrail and deck of Taiping Bridge were damaged, and the main structure of Taiping Bridge is still good. And this 500-year-old Taiping Bridge is also called by locals? The bridge is strong? . He has experienced many flood peaks, but he still stands upright, so this time local experts and government departments have also studied the repair plan according to the damage situation. Once the plan is approved, relevant local organizations will repair the Taiping Bridge.

On July 5th, longnan county, deputy head of Jiangxi Province, told the media that although Taiping Bridge was hit by a very violent flood, the main structure of the bridge was still intact, because the guardrail and deck of Taiping Bridge were damaged due to too much water. If the slope protection area is to be repaired, it needs to be excavated and reinforced again, but it will not affect the main structure of Taiping Bridge. Moreover, it can be seen from the live pictures reported by the media that the guardrail of Taiping Bridge has been washed away in many places by the flood, and there are still many sundries washed down by the flood on the bridge deck.

According to the estimation of local professional organizations, it will take three months to repair Taiping Bridge. The relevant departments are already working out a repair plan. The Taiping Bridge has been temporarily closed after the flood, and pedestrians can pass, but the flood control can no longer continue, so the traffic can only be reopened after the renovation. Moreover, because of the flood, ancient buildings in many places have been damaged to varying degrees, and the local authorities have also reflected this situation to National Cultural Heritage Administration, hoping that the national funds for the protection of these cultural relics can be put in place as soon as possible.
