There is a bridge in Guangzhou that is only for pedestrians. Some people say that it contains mysteries and that you even need to make a reservation to get on the bridge?
Guangzhou’s Haixin Bridge has been really popular since its opening. This bridge is the only bridge in Guangzhou designed for pedestrians to walk and sightsee, and it may also be the only bridge in China that requires a reservation to go on.
To go on this bridge, you must make a reservation. The number of people on the bridge is limited at each time period. There are dedicated people guarding the bridge, and the management is not lax. You can get off the bridge directly to the Canton Tower. Unknowingly, Haixin Bridge has become a new landmark in Guangzhou and an Internet celebrity bridge.
There are many people not only under the bridge, but also on the bridge all the time. There is not only a Yang Pavilion on the bridge but also a place for people to sit. When the sun is strong, the seats are just under the shadow of the bridge, which is perfect for sun protection. Therefore, no matter how high the temperature is in Guangzhou, there will always be citizens and tourists sitting on the bridge specifically for Haixin Bridge.
Blowing the breeze, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, the high-rise buildings in front of me, the blue waves of the Pearl River, and the proud little waist (Canton Tower), I feel very happy.
Looking at the Haixin Bridge on the bank of the Pearl River, you will find that the bridge and the waist are in a wonderful position, looking like an open bow and arrow. The Haixin Bridge is the bow, and the small waist is the arrow. Moreover, on the day Haixin Bridge was opened, the number of epidemic cases in Guangzhou happened to be cleared. Therefore, some people think that Haixin Bridge is a Feng Shui bureau in Guangzhou, which brings good luck to Guangzhou.
The science of Feng Shui is so mysterious that it cannot be explained clearly. If you call it superstitious, it seems to be a bit like that. If you call it scientific, it seems to be a bit superstitious and too profound for us ordinary people to understand. However, if it is said that the completion of the Haixin Bridge has cleared the number of new cases of the epidemic in Guangzhou, I personally would never agree. Because everyone knows that it was the united efforts of Guangzhou people that defeated the epidemic.
It’s hard to say whether it is like a bow or an arrow. Let’s just talk about the Haixin Bridge. According to the practice of the ancients, building a bridge on the water has the meaning of blocking the flow of wealth. In CBD areas like Zhujiang New Town, there are Jiefang Bridge, People's Bridge, Haizhu Bridge, Guangzhou Bridge and now a Haixin Bridge built on the Pearl River. Does this mean that areas like Zhujiang New Town are very wealthy? Its CBD status may not be shaken for many years.
After the completion of Haixin Bridge, the Haixinsha section of the Pearl River became more lively. Many sunflowers were also planted in Haixinsha, setting off the Pearl River New Town as a sea of flowers.
It is summer vacation, and the Guangzhou Library and Guangdong Museum are still crowded with people. Parents and their children take advantage of the vacation to get in touch with extracurricular knowledge. There are also Guangzhou Grand Theater and Huacheng Square...all are places for shopping, eating and entertainment. Despite the hot weather, these places are always popular.
People can stroll around and appreciate the prosperity of the most "luxurious" area in Guangzhou.
After that, you can walk to Haixin Bridge and enjoy the first-line river view of Guangzhou from Haixin Bridge. At night, you can even take a night cruise on the Pearl River.
Haixin Bridge has nothing to do with Feng Shui, but it does bring another good place for leisure and entertainment to Guangzhou people.
