Chengyang Bridge, Covered wooden bridge in Sanjiang Dong Autonomous County, Guangxi, China.

The Chengyang Yongji Bridge is a 64.4-meter wooden structure featuring five stone piers topped with colorful kiosks built entirely without nails using traditional joinery techniques.

Constructed in 1912 and reconstructed in 1983 following flood damage, the bridge has served as a crucial crossing point for local communities for over a century.

The bridge exemplifies traditional Dong minority architecture and is known as a wind and rain bridge, symbolizing protection and communal spirit among the Dong people.

Located at VJWR+36C in Sanjiang County, the bridge provides wooden benches along its sides where pedestrians can rest while sheltered from weather conditions.

The bridge construction relies solely on traditional wooden joinery without any metal nails, showcasing ancestral craftsmanship passed down through generations of Dong artisans.
