Cross Hongqiao

Cross Hongqiao

There are six bridges on the Su Causeway, and the Cross Hong Bridge is located at the northernmost end. It was moved here in the Ming Dynasty, and it is also the only one of the six bridges that moved across the bridge site. Hongqiao, the middle span of the sixth bridge, is the longest and the single span is also large. In 1920, the bridge deck was changed to a slope, so the slope of the bridge deck was larger. Now the bridge is decorated with clouds and waves.

From the gate of Shangri La Hotel on Beishan Road, you can see the sixth bridge of Su dyke beside the house, "cross Hongqiao". The bridge is a semi-circular stone arch bridge with a length of 21.1 meters, a clear width of 4.3 meters and a single span of 8.1 meters. Built in the Northern Song Dynasty, the bridge site moved slightly in the Ming Dynasty. It is the only one of the six bridges in SUDI with the longest length and large single span. After 9 years of the Republic of China, the bridge deck was changed from stone grade to slope. In the old days, it was connected to gengjiabu port.
