The historical Qinglong Bridge was destroyed by fire, storm or war. It was destroyed more than ten times, but it was destroyed and built again and again, which shows the importance of its status in that year.

According to historical records, in the 19th year of Jiaqing in Qing Dynasty (18 14), Qinglong Bridge was destroyed by fire and rebuilt under the auspices of Huang Delian, the then magistrate. In the 24th year of Daoguang (1844), Qinglong Bridge was destroyed by fire again and was restored by Linde, a magistrate of a county. In the seventh year of Xianfeng (1857), Qinglong Bridge was destroyed by war. Eighteen years later, in the thirteenth year of Tongzhi (1875), Chen Taikun, the magistrate, and his men raised funds to repair it. In the 13th year of Guangxu (1887), the Qinglong Bridge in the storm suddenly fell into the river, and the magistrate Xiao Fengyi and the magistrate Hu led the public to donate money for reconstruction. Later, during the Republic of China, the Qinglong Bridge, which was repeatedly destroyed, was rebuilt many times.

1937 After the July 7th Incident broke out, the Japanese invaders invaded China on a large scale, and only one and a half years later, half of China fell into the clutches of the Japanese aggressors. 1On September 28th, 938, the Japanese aggressors sent nine planes to bomb Kunming for the first time. 1941April 2 1 day, three Japanese fighter planes flew over Qinglong bridge in Lancang River and dropped 13 bombs in succession. Because Qinglong Bridge is located on the ancient tea-horse road, it connects Dali and Kunming in the north, Yunxian and Lincang in the south, and it can also pass through Gengma and Zhenkang to reach Myanmar directly. The Japanese invaders hit Qinglong Bridge hard, and their intentions can be described as extremely sinister and vicious. Fortunately, the bombing only destroyed more than 10 pine trees on both sides of the river, and 13 water columns with a height of tens of feet spewed out on the river, and Qinglong Bridge was not damaged at all. The Japanese invaders did not give up, and later sent planes to bomb Qinglong Bridge many times. Because the peaks on both sides of Qinglong Bridge are towering and the terrain is dangerous, the bridge body is deeply hidden in the Lancang River Canyon, and the enemy plane can't dive, and the plot has never succeeded. At that time, 6,543,800 China troops defended the Nujiang River, and a lot of food, ammunition and military supplies were transported southward through Qinglong Bridge. In War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, Qinglong Bridge has made great contributions. After the founding of New China, a highway bridge was built in Suijiedu, not far from the upstream of Qinglong Bridge. Since then, Qinglong Bridge has been neglected by pedestrians and completed its historical mission. Only nearby villagers have crossed the river on foot. However, in view of its unique and important role in history, the government has allocated funds to repair it many times.
