Introduction to Jinshui Bridge: On both sides of the Jinshui Bridge, on the top edge of the central arch, there are carved water-absorbing beasts legendary in theology. They are dragon-faced and lion-headed, with a brave and peaceful expression. According to legend, it can absorb large amounts of water from the river and protect people on both sides of the river from flooding. In Buddhism, the bridge is the dividing line between the mortal and the holy realms. After letting go of all the fate of the mortal world, the soul reaches another "holy realm" after crossing the Jinshui Bridge.
