Hongji Bridge, Stone arch bridge in Nanxun District, China.

The Hongji Bridge stretches 28 meters in length and rises 7.2 meters above the Dongshi River with a deck width of 3.5 meters.

In 1937, the National Army partially destroyed the bridge deck to prevent the Imperial Japanese Army from advancing across the strategic crossing point.

The stone arch structure represents the engineering methods of Chinese bridge construction, particularly those developed in the Zhejiang province region.

The bridge connects different sections of Nanxun Ancient Town and remains accessible to pedestrians who want to cross the Dongshi River.

Local residents collectively rebuilt the entire bridge structure in 1805 during the Jiaqing Emperor period, completing the project within a single year.
