Gejing Bridge is located in the southeast of Fuquan City, Guizhou Province. The bridge is 52 meters long,5.5 meters wide and 30 meters high. It is across the cliffs on both sides of the Maha River. The bridge is arched on the cliff, and the foot is lowered by a reef in the heart of the river. The design is excellent, the materials are exquisite and the craftsmanship is exquisite. It has been more than 400 years and is as strong as ever.

Ge Jingqiao is located in the southeast suburbs of Fuquan City. It is a Ming Dynasty stone bridge across the cliffs of the Maha River on the ancient ramp of Beijing-Shanghai. It was built in 1618 and is listed as a key national cultural relics protection unit. The bridge was a local tyrants Ge Jing in the Ming Dynasty. In order to solve the problem of the road being blocked by the river, it took 30 years to pay for it. It took three decades to experience two failures before it was built. The locals called the "Tofu Bridge" for two reasons. One said that the bridge was made of square stone and looked like tofu. Another said that when the bridge was short of stone materials, Zhang Sanfeng Tuomeng asked the villagers to send a piece of tofu, and was made into stone by Zhang Sanfeng. Obviously the first statement is more reliable. It was not easy to build such a clever and majestic bridge with the power of the people. After more than 400 years of vicissitudes, it was still intact and solid as before, and it was more rare. The famous bridge expert Mao Yisheng commented on this bridge in his book: the project is arduous and majestic, as the "crown of the southwest bridge". Ge Jingqiao has history and stories, but it is just "hidden in the depths and people do not know", and it is completely in a primitive state. It has not been developed into a scenic spot, there are not many people who know, and there are fewer people who have been there. Ge Jingqiao is only 3.5 kilometers away from the ancient city tourist service center near the south gate of Fuquan City, and it can be reached in 45 minutes on foot. If you drive there, there is a small parking lot on the riverside. After parking, you can go directly down to the bridge along the stone steps. This is not a scenic spot, it seems that there are no health service personnel, and visitors should not leave garbage.

The real merit is in the thousands of years, benefiting one side of the Ming Wanli 16 years, Ge Jing Bridge builder Ge Jing has built two stone bridges on the Maha River, all of which were washed away by the flood. The firm-willed Ge Jing, made the vow of "the bridge is not a mirror is not dead", exhausted family resources, after３０ years, finally repaired the "ge Jing Bridge" and used it to this day.
