As the entry point to Kunming Lake, Jiehu Bridge forms the boundary betweenthe Front and Back Lakes. It is a cross-shaped stone bridge with three arches.With its square kiosk, Binfeng Bridge has been built in the style of bridges inthe countries of Southern China. Jade -Belt Bridge, the most renowned andbeautiful of the bridges, is made of white and black marble. Its fluid contourlines are woven graciously together, hence its name-seen from afar, it resemblesa jade belt. Its high arches enabled the Emperor Qianlong to pass under it in adragon boat. Jing Bridge(Mirror Bridge) gets its name from the artistic visionof poet Li Bai(701-762)-two clear rivers like mirrors, two crossing bridges likedouble rainbow's.
