The characteristics of this bridge are: (1) The whole bridge has only one large arch, which is one meter long, which can be regarded as the longest stone arch in the world at that time. The bridge hole is not an ordinary semicircle, but resembles a bow, so that the road above the arch has no steep slope, which is convenient for cars to get up and down.

2) On each shoulder of the large arch, there are two small arches. This is a creative design, which not only saves stone and reduces the weight of the bridge, but also increases the amount of water passing through the bridge tunnel when the river rises, and reduces the impact of floods on the bridge. At the same time, the arch is added to the arch, and the bridge body is also more beautiful.

3) The arch is made up of 28 arch circles, just like so many bows of the same shape are joined together to form an arc-shaped bridge hole. Each arch ring can independently support the weight above, and if one is broken, the others will not be affected. (4) The structure of the whole bridge is symmetrical and harmoniously matched with the surrounding scenery; The stone railings on the bridge are also carved in a quaint and beautiful way.

Zhang of the Tang Dynasty? Said, looking at this bridge from afar is like "the first moon rises out of the clouds, and the rainbow leads the stream". The high technical level and immortal artistic value of Zhaozhou Bridge fully demonstrate the wisdom and strength of China's working people.
