Tongjin Bridge

Tongjin Bridge

Tongjin bridge is located in Xintang village, Xinsi town. It was built in 1216 A.D. in the ninth year of Jiading in the Southern Song Dynasty. It is the oldest stone arch bridge in the area and one of the few stone arch bridges in Shanghai in the Song Dynasty.

Two thousand year old Ginkgo biloba trees planted in the early Song Dynasty are one of the seven thousand year old "longevity" trees in Shanghai. They have the largest crown in the city. Standing in the shade of lush trees, they can't help feeling the virtue of shade of their predecessors. Ancient trees and bridges, standing on the quiet rural river, are worth enjoying.
