Marco Polo Bridge

Itinerary:

Marco Polo Bridge (Lugou Bridge) originally built in 1192 is an eleven arched bridge.  "Lugou Xiao Yue" which means "The Moon over the Lugou Bridge at dawn". 485 stone lions adorn the 235 meter bridge, but no two lions are exactly the same. At both ends of the bridge stand imperial steles - large stone slabs with historic calligraphic writing. One stele is an inscription by Qing emperor Qianlong and the other marks the rebuilding of the bridge.
