On the afternoon of August 16, after a rain, the temperature dropped, and workers were salvaging the components of the Tunxi old bridge in the river.
This is an ancient bridge railing stone made in the Ming Dynasty, with a unique shape.
In the construction of the old bridge after the Qing Dynasty, this kind of railing stone did not appear.
This time, it was salvaged out of the water, and it also came out again after sleeping in loneliness for hundreds of years.
In the evening of August 17, many excavators and trucks operated at full speed.
On the revetment on the side of the old Tunxi Bridge near the old street, the famous writer Yu Dafu’s poem praising the Xin’an River is still “the Xin’an River is green and the people on both sides are scattered like boats; a few nights under the Tunxi Bridge, the heartbroken spring looks like Yangzhou”.
Since ancient times, numerous poems and articles have praised Huizhou and Tunxi, and Yu Dafu is definitely one of the best writers of the beautiful scenery of Tunxi.
On August 17, the salvaging of components entered the sixth day, and the progress has been accelerating, reaching the range of multiple piers.
The stone storage yard of the ancient bridge components in Huaxi Hotel has a large number of components placed by category, which is magnificent! Many of the Ming Dynasty ancient bridge watchstones have been salvaged! This kind of stone is perforated in the middle or at an oblique angle.
I don’t know what it is used for.
The boulder at the head of the bridge was also salvaged.
