The three bridges are considered to be the oldest covered bridges in Taishun.
It is said that during the restoration, old tiles from the Tang, Song, and Ming dynasties were found.
If this time can be confirmed, the traditional construction techniques of Chinese wooden arch bridges can be traced back to an earlier dynasty.
There are Tang Dynasty tiles on the three bridges, which are recorded in the records of the division of the territory.
It's a pity that I turned over the tiles on the three bridges and didn't find them.
Even so, the three bridges are also the earliest known covered bridges in Taishun.
Among the existing tiles, cultural relics workers found tiles from the Song Shaoxing and Daguan periods, and they were not separate pieces or two.
Therefore, in terms of verifiable years, the three bridges were built on the 13th day of the ninth lunar month in 1137, that is, the seventh year of Song Shaoxing.
The bridge is 26.63 meters long and 4 meters wide, and there are 11 bridge houses on the bridge, and the height from the water is 10 meters.
The three bridges and the other two national key protected cultural relics Yuwen Bridge and Xianju Bridge to be written about next are all in Luoyang Town.
The three bridges are the most remote of the three bridges and must be reached on foot.
In literary terms, the three bridges are the loneliest of all the covered bridges in Taishun.
It is the deepest hidden, and the surrounding mountain roads are also the steepest.
There was no way to build a bridge here at first, but three huge logs were used to build it directly.
Not to mention the lack of wind and rain, the main thing is that it is not safe.
After the bridge was built, the villagers still used the name "Sanjo".
