Come here to experience the beauty of autumn. The Daguan River reaches a new level of beauty after autumn.

The breath of life can be seen everywhere along the Daguan River, outlining the concreteness of life. Walking here, the impatient heart will be soothed and calmed by the autumn wind. There is a well-known arch bridge on the Daguan River in Kunming - Lujiaying Arch Bridge. It is located between Lujiaying on the Daguan River and the former PLA Kunming General Hospital (now the 920 Hospital), so people also call it the Lujiaying "Arch Bridge". Construction time: built in 1974 Arch bridge structure: arc-shaped, steel-concrete structure, with bluestone slabs on the bridge deck. The bridge is 30 meters long, 3.1 meters wide and 11 meters high. Construction background: In the 1970s and 1980s, there were small passenger ships, small cruise ships, cargo ships (sailboats), and fishing boats passing through the Daguan River, and the pier was in Zhuantang. When the bridge was built, the designers' main consideration was to allow ships traveling on the river to pass unimpeded, so the bridge was designed to be higher. Later, the Daguan River gradually became unnavigable and became a city landscape river. This arch bridge also became a unique landscape on the Daguan River. Landscape features: This arch bridge has a unique shape, like a rainbow spanning across the Daguan River. It complements the scenery around the Daguan River. The clean river water, tall Yunnan poplar trees and the arch bridge set off each other, forming a picturesque scenery. Every autumn and winter, the leaves of the Yunnan poplar turn yellow, and the golden leaves are reflected in the water, adding a unique charm to this place. It is called the "Kunming version of the Seine" scenery. This place has also become a good place for citizens and tourists to take a leisurely stroll, take photos and check in. In addition to the Lujiaying Arch Bridge, there are some newly built bridges on the Daguan River, such as the Chaoyun Bridge which was built in 2023. Chaoyun Bridge is a key node connecting the two banks of the Daguan River in the Caohai section of the Dianchi Greenway. It is named after the word "Chaoyun" in the long couplet of the Daguan Tower: "The pearl curtains and painted buildings are all gone, but they cannot be rolled up before the evening rain and morning clouds." It uses modern steel materials and is painted with imitation wood paint. Its shape draws on the form of traditional Chinese arch bridges and is inspired by flowing clouds. It has beautiful curves and is simple and light. There is also Zhuanxin Farmers Market nearby. Daguan Park, Yu Garden and Xihua Garden are all very close and beautiful. You can go there for a stroll.
