Yulong Bridge

遇龙桥

A single-arch Ming stone bridge on the upper Yulong River, 600 years old. It is a classic starting point for bamboo rafting and cycling on the Yulong River.

Yulong Bridge was built in the tenth year of the Yongle era of the Ming dynasty (1412). It is about 36 meters long and 9 meters high, making it the largest single-arch stone bridge in Yangshuo. Vines cover the bridge body, and together with the bamboo rafts on the river and the solitary peaks along the banks, it forms the most representative scene of the Yulong River. Beneath the bridge lies the bamboo-raft dock for the Jinlong Bridge to Yulong Bridge to Jiuxian section, and it is also one of the endpoints of the cycling route. Entry is free. The bridge is about 17 km from Yangshuo's West Street, roughly 40 minutes by electric scooter.
