About Dujiangyan South Bridge
Its covered walkway, painted ceiling and carved timber create a close-up architectural experience above the fast-moving water. The bridge has been rebuilt and repaired repeatedly, so the present structure should not be described as an untouched ancient crossing. It links naturally with Guanxian’s food streets and an evening river view, when lighting changes the appearance of the water and roofline.
What to look for
- Painted ceilings and carved timber distinguish the covered bridge interior.
- The river crossing connects the waterworks setting with old-town streets.
