Yangmeizhou Covered Bridge

杨梅州桥

A Qing dynasty wooden arch covered bridge hidden in a canyon, with a single span of about 33 m. It is reached on foot along an ancient path and is a secret gem for covered bridge enthusiasts.

Yangmeizhou Bridge lies in Kengdi Township, Shouning County, spanning the Yangmeizhou Creek in a canyon. It was first built in the Qing dynasty and was later rebuilt. Its single span is about 33 m, making it one of the larger wooden arch covered bridges in Shouning. It is part of the 'Shouning Wooden Arch Covered Bridges,' a National Key Cultural Relic Protection Unit. The bridge is hidden among green mountains and clear water, with almost no houses nearby. You park at the junction and then walk about 20 to 30 minutes along a mountain path to reach it. The paths are slippery when it rains, so it is safer to go with others.
