Xingchun Bridge, Stone bridge in Gusu District, Suzhou, China

The Xingchun Bridge spans across a canal with stone arches and traditional Chinese architectural elements featuring detailed stonework craftsmanship on its structure.

Built during the Ming Dynasty, this crossing point served as a vital transportation link for merchants and residents navigating through Suzhou's intricate canal system.
