For this ancient Song Dynasty floating bridge, rushing to Ganzhou is worth it!

Before coming to Ganzhou, I never imagined that this city held so many surprises. After arriving, I realized it's truly been severely underestimated! Ganzhou is never just a transit stop on a journey, but a treasure trove of a travel destination worth exploring in depth. In Ganzhou, what I found most unforgettable was the ancient floating bridge. It lies quietly across the water, one end connected to the ancient city wall, the other leading to the distant past. Standing on the bridge, it's as if you can travel through time and see the prosperity of the past. Especially at sunset, the afterglow sprinkles on the ancient floating bridge, creating a picture too beautiful to describe, every second like a magnificent oil painting. 📍 Location The ancient floating bridge is at the intersection of Zhongshan Road and Ma Qi Alley, Zhanggong District, Ganzhou, Jiangxi. Taking a taxi or driving is recommended, as transportation is convenient, allowing you to easily reach this beautiful scene that transcends a thousand years. 🚄 Transportation Guide From Shenzhen, it only takes 2 hours to reach Ganzhou by high-speed rail. After getting off the high-speed rail, a 15-minute taxi ride will bring you to a romantic encounter with the ancient floating bridge. 🎫 Ticket Information and Opening Hours Admission is free, and it's open year-round, from Monday to Sunday, all day long, waiting for you to experience a date that spans time. [Photo Guide] 1. This ancient floating bridge, first built in 1163 during the Song Dynasty, has withstood 800 years of trials and tribulations and still stands firmly on the water. It's made up of over 100 small boats tightly connected by cables. Its unique structure is extremely distinctive, and it still plays an important role today. Standing on the bridge, touching the traces left by time, every photo is filled with a sense of history. 2. Good news for drone enthusiasts! Aerial photography here is simply amazing! There are no obstructions, allowing you to freely express your creativity in composition. You can fly your drone directly from the city wall, but be mindful of flight safety, especially during holidays when there are more people. 3. The vibrant atmosphere here is as rich as vintage wine, intoxicating. Fishermen selling fish products can be seen everywhere on the bridge. Jiangxi, as a land of fish and rice, is rich in various aquatic products. These scenes are full of local characteristics, and every casual shot is a humanistic masterpiece full of life. 4. At sunset, this place transforms into a fairyland. The open view, unobstructed, the sky like an overturned palette. The day I went, I was lucky enough to encounter pink fire clouds, breathtakingly beautiful. You can also sit on the small boats connected to the floating bridge, enjoying the pleasant time while taking photos, but always pay attention to safety. 5. The beauty of Ganzhou is far more than just this ancient floating bridge. There are many ancient streets in Ganzhou city, full of delicious food, a paradise for my Hunanese taste buds. In addition, Longnan in Ganzhou is also a tourist attraction, with many unique Hakka buildings, very stunning. You can also check out my previous articles to learn more.
