Luoyang Bridge Luoyang Bridge is located at the junction of Wan'an Street in Luojiang District and Luoyang Town in Hui'an County. It was built in 1053 in the Northern Song Dynasty. It is the earliest existing cross-sea stone bridge in China. It is also known as the four ancient bridges in China along with Marco Polo Bridge, Guangji Bridge and Zhaozhou Bridge. Its most famous "black technology" is "growing oysters to consolidate the foundation" - raising oysters on the bridge foundation and using oyster shells to cement the scattered stones together. It is the earliest record in the world of using organisms for bridge engineering. Public transportation: It is more convenient to take a taxi from the city. If you drive by yourself, you can navigate to the "Luoyang Bridge South Official Convenient Parking Lot".

Practical notes

It is recommended to check the tide table before going. When the tide is low, you can see the densely packed oyster shells on the bridge piers. Watching the sunset in the evening is also very impressive. Please refer to the latest official announcement for opening, reservation and ticketing arrangements.
