2. Sugar Bridge
According to legend, Ji Fang Bridge in Sanguan (now Guangming) Town was originally a bamboo bridge, which was very dangerous for pedestrians. One day, a sugar changer passed by and said, "This bridge is so neglected? If I have money, I will build a new one. "
Once, the sugar changer changed a pair of gold amitabha Buddha in a ruined official, and made a fortune from then on. So he raised first-class stones, hired skilled craftsmen, demolished the bamboo bridge, and built a three-hole stone arch bridge named Ji Fang Bridge. In memory of him, the locals called him "Sugar Bridge".
3. Husband and wife bridge
In the eighth year of Jiaqing in Qing Dynasty (1803), on May 15th, the ferry capsized and more than 100 people were buried in the belly of fish. Under such tragic circumstances, Mr. He Xian and his private school wife are on pins and needles. They looked at the terrain, looked through the historical data of bridge construction, consulted local water and carpenters, reported to the government and lobbied all parties to raise funds. In May, 1999, Qing Jiaqing led the people in four townships to start building bridges.
Before the bridge was built, two woodcutters crossed the bridge against the wind and fell into the water and died. The "head" of the ferry bribed the government and falsely accused him of ignoring human life. Mr. He Xian hated Jiuquan, but his wife suppressed grief and indignation, inherited her husband's ambition, and completed the construction of the cable bridge.
The bridge is paved with wooden boards and fenced with bamboo cables, so it is safe to walk, hence the name "An Lan Bridge". Later, it was changed to An Lan Bridge, which means crossing the river safely without fear of waves. People are grateful for the merits of He Xiande and his wife, also known as "the bridge between husband and wife".
