Introduction to Lingrun Bridge: Lingrun Bridge, also known as Flower Bridge, was built in the 10th year of the Yuan Dynasty. It was built by Zen Master Zuyi, the abbot of Sizu Temple at that time. The traditional single-hole stone bridge runs east-west, about 20 meters long, 6 meters wide, with an arch height of 3.2 meters. The main body is made of bluestone. Different from the northern stone bridge, Lingrun Bridge has five spans built in brick and wood structure. The bridge corridor is supported by twenty-four wooden columns, with an upper beam structure and a single-ridge blue tile roof. At both ends are tall, coupon-topped Wuhuashan gates, with brickwork imitating wooden eaves, rafters and bucket arches, which is tall and grand. There are stone carvings of dragons, phoenixes, birds and animals on the door wall. The forehead of the door is inscribed "Lingrun Bridge" and "Hua Bridge" respectively, which has a typical Huizhou architectural style.
