About Chinese Bridges: Living Architecture from China’s Past

Bridges, the least known and understood of China’s many wonders, are one of its most striking and resilient feats of architectural prowess. “Chinese Bridges” brings together a thorough look at these marvels from one of the world’s leading experts on Chinese culture and historical geography, Ronald G. Knapp. While many consider bridges to be merely utilitarian, the bridges of China move beyond that stereotype, as many are undeniably dramatic, even majestic and daring. “Chinese Bridges” illustrates in detail 20 well-preserved ancient bridges, along with descriptions and essays on the distinctive architectural elements shared by the various designs. For the first time in an English-language book, “Chinese Bridges” records scores of newly discovered bridges across China’s vast landscape, illustrated with over 400 color photographs, as well as woodblock prints, historic images, paintings and line drawings.
