Changshou Bridge, or Longevity Bridge, is a single-hole slab bridge that was reconstructed in the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). The bridge features a stone moon at the bridge pier to measure the water level.

Locals decided whether to reinforce the river wall according to the position of the water to the moon to prevent flooding.
