Cunjin Bridge Park
寸金桥公园
A park commemorating the people of Zhanjiang's anti-French struggle. The name 'Cunjin Bridge' means that every inch of land is precious and national territory must not be encroached upon.
Cunjin Bridge Park lies in the western part of Chikan District and centres on the Cunjin Bridge, built in 1925. The bridge's name, meaning 'every inch of land is precious', commemorates the people of Suixi's struggle against the French forced lease of Guangzhouwan in 1898 to 1899. The park has a memorial, lakes and ponds, and large areas of green space, and the Zhanjiang Museum is right next door. Admission is free. It is well suited to a visit together with the museum, and allow about one hour.
