Last night, I took a sleeper coach from Wuhan back to Beijing. As the train crossed the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge, I was surprised to find the view outside the window breathtakingly beautiful. The planning for the construction of the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge began in the late Qing Dynasty. When Sun Yat-sen (孙中山), who established the Republic of China, arrived in Wuhan after the revolution, he gave a speech at Snake Hill (蛇山) by the Yangtze River, where he also mentioned the idea of building a bridge across the river. Between 1913 and 1948, there were four rounds of surveying, site selection, and design, with experts from the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, Japan, and other countries participating. However, the plans were shelved multiple times due to technological challenges, economic issues and war turmoil. A local saying once mocked the efforts: "The Yellow River's waters, the Yangtze River's bridge, can't be tamed, can't be built." Construction began in September 1955, and it was completed at twice the originally planned speed. It officially opened to traffic in October 1957. The bridge was chiefly designed and built by Chinese, although there was participation from renowned Soviet specialists. However, many details, such as the pavilion-like bridgeheads, reflect Chinese aesthetic characteristics. Its starting point is the same Snake Hill where Sun Yat-sen once spoke of his hope for a bridge across the river and ends at the Turtle Hill (龟山) across the river. It is also the first permanent bridge to span the Yangtze River in Chinese history. In 2013, it was listed as a national historic site. In the distance is the Wuhan Yangtze River Second Bridge, completed in 1995, 40 years after the construction of the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge. However, today, Wuhan has more than a dozen bridges and tunnels crossing the Yangtze River. The bridge's story is more than just about its construction. Nearby, Sun Quan (孙权) built a castle, whose watchtower became one of China's most famous towers, the Yellow Crane Tower (黄鹤楼); the defiant scholar Mi Heng (祢衡) wrote the Parrot Eulogy; and Li Bai (李白), one of China's greatest poets, spoke romantically of the plum blossoms falling in May in Wuhan the river town (江城五月落梅花). Crossing the river of history. From the unfulfilled dreams to the plethora of bridges today, Wuhan weaves a picture of the eras with resilience and commitment. As for me, I was fortunate enough to witness the ceaseless pulse and vitality of this heroic city on this bustling night.
