This Chinese moon bridge and its reflection create a gorgeous blue oval on a calm day. I’ve always wondered if it’s hard to walk on one of these steeply-arched bridges…then I found a photo that showed me what I should have guessed all along…stairs!

I am in love with this bridge! Fabulous.
what an exquisite concept. i am guessing that it is called a moon bridge the same way that a round window in a chinese garden wall or fence- is called a moon window.breathtaking.
