Narration of Xixiang Bridge in Shaanxi Province

Our school is next to Jinjiang, and there are many bridges on the river: Xinnanmen Bridge is full of traffic; The old South Gate Bridge is calm and solemn, with flowers blooming on both sides; The rainbow bridge spans the river like a rainbow, and the carvings on the bridge are lifelike ... but what impressed me the most is the beautiful Anshun covered bridge.

Walking through the Music Square, you can see a huge ancient "house" on the other side of the river in the distance, with eaves and walls, carved windows, red walls and black tiles, which is very beautiful. When you get closer, you will find that this is a bridge with houses built on it! The teacher said that this special bridge is called "covered bridge".

Looking around, Anshun covered bridge is antique. The houses covered on the bridge are modeled after ancient buildings. There are three cornices, and two bells are hung on the corners of each cornice. The breeze blew and the bronze bell sang sweetly. There are also two dragons on the roof, holding their heads high and their tails up, as if to fly. The houses are bright red with large black carved wooden windows, which makes people feel solemn. There are three bridge holes on the bridge body, and there are two Kobashiguchi on the shoulders of the bridge holes. It is said that this design can not only ensure the flood to pass quickly, but also reduce the weight of the bridge. In front of bridge opening stood two huge bronze beasts. One opened his mouth and looked at the sky with his head held high, as if observing the change of the weather; A bow, frowning, as if monitoring the change of water regime. Ancient people used this bronze beast to avoid water and drive away disasters. The clear river flows slowly. In the sunlight, bridge opening and the reflection in the water form a strange ellipse. The shadow of the waves is projected on the stone wall of bridge opening, as if countless small silver snakes are dancing. It's really beautiful.

At the southern end of the bridge, there is a huge arch. After passing the archway and climbing the steps, I was surprised to find that the railings were all carved stone slabs, magpies were singing on plum blossoms, and white cranes were dancing among pine trees. The teacher said that these patterns are symbols of happiness and contain people's wishes for a better life. I counted, a * *, with 106 pictures! All kinds of clouds are carved on the pillars of Zhuhong Bridge. Some are like fish, others like birds.

Looking from the railing, you can see the beautiful scenery along the Jinjiang River, with Hejiang Pavilion and Fang Shuijing looming. The clear Jinjiang River flows slowly, and the willows on both sides float gently in the breeze. Under the white clouds, several egrets passed by, forming a beautiful picture with the blue sky on the glass wall of a tall building in the distance. Look at your feet again. In the sunshine, countless Jin Yezi jumped on the water, dazzling. I was intoxicated by the beautiful scenery.

Along the north end of the bridge corridor, there are four reliefs on the wall, engraved with scenes of ancient people making Shu embroidery and Shu brocade. The stone wall of the North Gate is also engraved with the "Fu on Covered Bridges" by the famous writer Wei Minglun: "The name of the bridge is Anshun, and the river is the south of the government ..."

When I left, I was reluctant to go. Looking back, I found that the majestic main body of Anshun covered bridge was plated with a circle of Phnom Penh by sunset, and the neon outside the bar under the bridge was like colorful stars. Listening to faint music, I am really happy to live in this city-Chengdu.
