Fengyu qiao, usually called a "roofed bridge," is a special kind of bridge that contains cultural characteristics specific to China's Dong People. Sanjiang Fengyu Qiao across Xunjiang River officially finished construction on Dec. 29 at Sanjiang County in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region in south-central China. The bridge is 16 meters wide and 368 meters long, which is 79 meters longer than the longest recorded bridge of this kind in Hunan Province. Photo taken on Dec. 29 shows thousands of local people celebrating the completion of the Sanjiang fengyu qiao. (Photo by Chinanews/Liang Juezhen)
