Chaozhou: Guangji Bridge

When visitors go to Chaozhou, the residents would encourage them to see Guangji Bridge. They say, "If you have not visited Guangji Bridge, you have not been to Chaozhou.

I brought my husband to take a look at the most famous attraction in Chaozhou. This old bridge crosses the Han River. The 518 m arch bridge with 18 pavilions has a unique architectural style and eighteen floating boats connecting the bridge in the middle.

The 18 floating boats are "stored away" every evening and “brought back” the next morning. When the bridge is open, there is a channel for ships and boats to get across. We were lucky to witness the closing of the channel one morning. (Watch video)

In the evenings, two laser light displays are scheduled at Guangji Bridge. It is a spectacular show. I recommend going for the first show at 8 pm, sometimes the 2nd show is cancelled without notice.

There was heavy rain on the day we visited Guangji Bridge, it did not deter us. We had fun in the rain.

潮州：广济桥

到潮不到桥，枉费走一遭，说的就是广济桥，潮州最出名的景点。

走在这古桥上，十八梭船廿四洲的独特格局，让我们赞赏和惊叹

这座旅游观光步行桥全长518米，横卧在滚滚的韩江之上。桥中有 “十八梭船”的启闭式浮桥，桥上有12座楼阁和18座亭屋，并加上匾额与对联，两边景色壮丽迷人。

每天晚上，18艘浮船会被开走，以便船只可以通过。早上，18艘浮船再开回来。

有天早上，我们很幸运地看到了这一幕。 （请看视频）

晚上有两场灯光秀，蛮好看的，建议尽量赶看第一场。因为有时候第二场会被取消，不会预先通知。我分别拍了白天和晚上的广济桥情景。

当天在游广济桥时，突然下起倾盆大雨。难得遇到狂风暴雨，我们在雨中，还是玩得很开心 非常值得来一趟的景点。

门票：20元人民币 （一张门票）
