Jiangdong Bridge, Ancient stone bridge in Longhai District, China.

The Jiangdong Bridge stretches 284 meters across the Beixi waterway, featuring stone and concrete construction with multiple architectural spans crossing the river.

During the Song Dynasty in 1190, engineers constructed a floating bridge at this location, which was later transformed into a wooden structure with stone piers in 1214.

The bridge represents one of the four notable stone bridges in Fujian Province, along with structures in Quanzhou, Jinjiang, and Fuqing regions.

The structure connects the Taiwan investment zone with Longwen District in Zhangzhou City, serving as part of National Highway 324 transportation network.

In 1938, military forces deliberately damaged the bridge during the Second Sino-Japanese War to prevent enemy advancement into the region.
