Being the first stone bay bridge in China, it enjoys the reputation of "one of the four ancient bridges of China". The project started from the fifth year (1053) of Huangyou's ruling period in the Northern Song dynasty. Cai Xiang, the chief of Quanzhou prefercture in the 3rd year (1058) of Jiayou's reign, took over the task of constructing the bridge, who had overcome several difficulties concerning bridge deck pavement and bridge pier by applying a raft foundation and raising oysters in the river to solid the base. In the fourth year (1059) of Jiayou's reign, the construction of Luoyang bridge was completed and Cai Xiang wrote "The Wan'an bridge" for it.

It was preceded by the Sui dynasty and followed by the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period.

List Of Bridges In China
This list of bridges in China includes notable bridges. China has a long history in bridge construction. The oldest bridge still in existence in China is the Anji Bridge, constructed during the years between 595 and 605. During the infrastructure boom of the past two decades, bridge-building has proceeded at a rapid pace on a vast scale.

There were only seven such bridges in 1992, but that number reached 73 by the end of 2012, including eight new openings in that year alone. China has been pushing the boundaries of bridge construction with many record breaking bridges, including: * The Danyang–Kunshan Grand Bridge, the world's longest bridge measuring over . * The Yangsigang Yangtze River Bridge in W ...
