The Long Bridge (Chang Qiao), like the Broken Bridge, is one of West Lake’s famed "Lovers’ Bridges", steeped in romance and legend.

💘 Two Timeless Love Stories
1️⃣ Tao Shi’er & Wang Xuanjiao(Southern Song Dynasty) – A tragic tale of a scholar and a courtesan
2️⃣ Butterfly Lovers (Liang Shanbo & Zhu Yingtai) – Their legendary 18 farewells on this bridge made it "long in love, though short in length"
