Walking Marriage Bridge

We chartered a car to go around Lugu Lake that day. Long before we came, we had heard about the famous Walking Marriage Bridge of Lugu Lake. It is said that the Walking Marriage Bridge spans over the sea of ​​grass with reeds floating, is about 300 meters long, and on both sides are large tracts of reeds growing in the sea of ​​grass. Walking on the bridge, you can see the fresh green scenery. It is a famous landscape around Lugu Lake. The Mosuo people practice the walking marriage custom of "men do not marry, women do not marry", and during the walking marriage, the man will pass through the Walking Marriage Bridge to the woman's home, so this bridge is also called "the world's first magpie bridge".

With curiosity and exploration, when we were about to reach the Walking Marriage Bridge, the driver said that we could not drive to the Walking Marriage Bridge, and asked us to get off and walk over. Then he would make a big turn and drive the car to the other side of the Walking Marriage Bridge to wait for us. So we got off the car excitedly and walked towards the Walking Marriage Bridge. There were some local children on both sides of the road selling some local specialties and small accessories. We walked on the Walking Marriage Bridge to experience the feeling of the Asha people during the walking marriage. It was February when we went there. We did not see the fresh green scenery, but we saw large golden reeds growing in the sea water, which was amazing with the blue sky and clear water.

When we walked to the other side of the Walking Marriage Bridge, we found that many people climbed to the top of the hill on the other side, so we followed them up the hill. Unexpectedly, this is a great place to see the Walking Marriage Bridge, where you can see the whole picture of the Walking Marriage Bridge and the scenery around it. The beautiful scenery shocked us and we all felt that Lugu Lake is worth visiting all year round, and it can bring people different beauty every time.

The location marked on Baidu Map is not consistent with the road signs on the roadside. You must follow the Baidu Map. Now Lugu Lake has also developed towards commercialization, making the villagers rich. After following the road signs and parking the car in the parking lot, you will pass a very long shopping street. When we went there, the scaffolding was being set up. It took 15 minutes to walk along the shopping street to the Walking Marriage Bridge... There were at least hundreds of stalls... To overlook the Walking Marriage Bridge, just climb the small hill. There are signboards. The mountain is not high, and it takes less than 10 minutes to reach the top. And I found that the scenery after climbing to the top is not as good as that halfway up the mountain.

The Walking Marriage Bridge is the only bridge on Lugu Lake and is the date place for Mosuo men and women. The bridge is more than 300 meters long, spanning the Grass Sea and connecting the Mosuo villages on both sides. It is known as the world's first magpie bridge. The Walking Marriage Bridge and the Grass Sea are beautiful. The long Walking Marriage Bridge and the endless Grass Sea attract many tourists. The snacks here are delicious, but the price is quite expensive. The Walking Marriage Bridge at dusk, when the bustling tourists have left, is the most beautiful time of the Walking Marriage Bridge. The afterglow of the setting sun is reflected on the pond, looking at the grass and water of the Grass Sea, only when you are there at this time can you experience the mysterious taste of the Walking Marriage.

There are many local ethnic minority children selling things on the Walking Marriage Bridge, which is very sad. My son said that one of the little girls was doing homework while selling things, which looked very pitiful, so he bought a bell (16 yuan). When he arrived in Lijiang Ancient Town, he bought three identical bells for 10 yuan, haha. However, some children were "forced to sell, beggar-like" sales, which was very disgusting! I met a 5 or 6-year-old boy who threw the packaged "rose tea" directly at me, and kept repeating in his mouth like a repeater with the fast-forward button pressed: "Sister, buy one, sister, buy one..." If you don't catch it, it will fall directly to the ground. Then it is difficult to return it to the boy. The boy hugged your legs tightly with his whole body, and you couldn't walk away. I was entangled by the boy for nearly 5 minutes, and my companions came to help. In this atmosphere, I really didn't want to buy anything. Finally, when I insisted on not buying, the boy punched me hard and ran away. A few minutes later, I found that the boy's mother was right next to him. She gave him a package of food. The two of them stood in front of the Walking Marriage Bridge to eat, and threw the torn package directly into Lugu Lake. I stood not far away and watched them, wondering what the future life of this child would be like.

It is not easy to park at the Walking Marriage Bridge. The parking lot of the scenic spot is very small, the road is narrow, and roadside parking is not feasible. Fortunately, there is an inn parking lot not far away that provides parking (10 yuan/time), which solved our problem. The Walking Marriage Bridge was first built in the Tusi era. The bridge is more than 300 meters long and is made of wood. It spans the sea of ​​grass, passes through the reeds, and reaches the villages on both sides. The Walking Marriage Bridge, known as the "No. 1 Magpie Bridge in the World", not only provides a convenient passage for villagers on both sides of the strait and the "Asha" who "walk marriage", but also played an important role in the past wars for the Tusi to concentrate the troops on both sides of the strait. It turned out that part of the wood of the old bridge, which has a history of nearly 100 years, has rotted or been destroyed and scattered in the sea of ​​grass. The current one is next to the old bridge and was rebuilt later. I am short-sighted and did not see the destroyed old bridge.

Walking Marriage Bridge: I heard that after couples walk across it together, they can hold hands until the end of their lives.

I heard a long time ago that there is a walking marriage bridge in Lugu Lake. I imagined what it looked like countless times in my mind, but I could never imagine that when I saw it, it was just an ordinary wooden bridge. It was quite different from the beautiful imagination.

There is a wooden trestle across the Grass Sea, called the Walking Marriage Bridge. In recent years, the legend of "walking marriage" in the Naxi Women's Kingdom has become increasingly faint in people's memory. The beautiful scenery of Lugu Lake has gradually replaced people's curiosity about the ancient customs. I think under the impact of modern culture, this tradition should no longer be popular here.

The Walking Marriage Bridge is located in the Caohai area in the southeast of Lugu Lake. It is the only bridge on Lugu Lake. Due to the long-term siltation under the bridge, the water depth has become shallow, and dense reeds have grown. From a distance, it looks like a sea of ​​grass, so the locals call it "Caohai". The Walking Marriage Bridge is the place where Mosuo men and women date. The Mosuo people on the shores of Lugu Lake adhere to the "walking marriage" custom of "men do not marry, women do not marry".

During the day, adult Mosuo men and women express their love to their loved ones through dancing and singing at gatherings. If a man is attracted to a woman, he will make an appointment with her during the day and go to her "flower building" (referring to the room of adult Mosuo women) in the middle of the night. Here, men call their female lovers "Axia" and women call their male lovers "Azhu". When night falls, "Azhu" who are meeting for an appointment come and go on the walking marriage bridge. There are two walking marriage bridges, one of which is an old bridge with a history of nearly 100 years. Some of the wood has rotted or been destroyed and scattered in the sea of ​​grass, so it is abandoned. Next to the old bridge is a new bridge with a beautiful shape. The bridge is more than 300 meters long and is also made of wood. The bridge deck is about 80 centimeters above the water surface, and there are wooden railings on both sides.

The Walking Marriage Bridge is located in the Caohai area in the southeastern waters of Lugu Lake. It is the only bridge on Lugu Lake. Due to the long-term siltation under the bridge, the water depth has become shallow, and dense reeds grow. From a distance, it looks like a sea of ​​grass. The Walking Marriage Bridge is the place where Mosuo men and women date. The Mosuo people on the shores of Lugu Lake adhere to the "walking marriage" custom of "men do not marry, women do not marry". This wooden bridge spanning the Caohai and connecting the villages on both sides is more than 300 meters long, providing a convenient passage for the "Asha" who "walk marriage". "The world's first love magpie bridge. The reeds beside the Walking Marriage Bridge dance in the wind, swaying and elegant!

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! As soon as I stepped onto the Walking Marriage Bridge, I looked around! Oh my god! Isn't this the realm of the sky! ! Distant mountains, still water, wooden boats, noisy crowds of tourists beside me, but in front of me is a glance of tranquility. It's beautiful to take pictures! It's beautiful to see the scenery! Our noise is just a tiny existence in nature. I didn't walk far on the bridge, less than 100 or 200 meters. I was really fascinated by the beautiful scenery. The tour group at Lugu Lake was scheduled, and I didn't want to rush to walk across a bridge. If you have time, take a walk and take a look, it will definitely be worth the trip!

The "Walking Marriage Bridge" is located in the Caohai area in the southeast waters of Lugu Lake. It is the only bridge on Lugu Lake.

Due to years of siltation, the water under the bridge has become shallower and dense reeds have grown. From a distance, it looks like a sea of ​​grass, so the locals call it the "Sea of ​​Grass".

The Walking Marriage Bridge is where Mosuo men and women go on dates. The Mosuo people living by the Lugu Lake adhere to the "walking marriage" custom of "men don't marry and women don't marry."

At 1/3 of the Caohai, there are two wooden bridges winding out from the reeds. This is the Walking Marriage Bridge, also known as the Caohai Bridge locally. It is a good place to watch the sunset.

Legend has it that lovers who walk across this bridge will have a long-lasting love.

There are many ways to visit Lugu Lake. Cycling is a good option if you have enough energy.

This time the ride started from Daluoshui Village in the morning and started riding clockwise - Lige Village - Nisai Village - Xiaoluoshui Village - Zhaojiawan - Caohai Walking Marriage Bridge - Daluoshui Village. Basically, just ride along the road.

The Walking Marriage Bridge is the last attraction. After passing the Walking Marriage Bridge, just concentrate on cycling.

I set out at around 9am and came back around 8pm. The whole journey took more than 10 hours. I have never ridden such a long distance before. I felt exhausted.

We went to Zhaojiawan, so we spent more time cycling. After leaving Zhaojiawan, we could only return along the same route. It took about 2 hours to go in and out.

The check-in point of Lugu Lake does not have many special features and the scenery is average.

Located on the sea of ​​grass, you can take a walk and experience the local culture. It is far from Daluoshui and requires a drive to get there.

It’s not as beautiful as I imagined. Maybe it’s because it has rained and the sky doesn’t look that blue. However, the history and significance of the bridge are greater.

The first attraction on our tour around the lake is the Caohai Marriage Bridge. Sichuan is over there, and it is better to take pictures of the bridge from above.

Do some cosplay on the Marriage Bridge and experience the wedding customs.

It is said to be a dating place for local young people. Hahaha. When I passed by, I saw many such children doing homework. They looked so pitiful. Their clothes, hands and shoes were all very dirty.

The Walking Marriage Bridge is located in the Caohai area in the southeast of Lugu Lake. It is the only bridge on Lugu Lake. When traveling to Lugu Lake, the Walking Marriage Bridge is one of the must-see attractions. There are many small businesses at the bridge head, and occasionally you can meet people wearing ethnic costumes on the bridge, which is a bit unique.

Look at the meadow, it’s all golden, which is also a nice scenery.

There are quite a lot of children at the Walking Marriage Bridge, forcing you to buy something! A group of them will surround you and force you to buy something to drink. If you don't buy it, you can't leave. They will force it into your hands! If you don't buy it, they will curse you. If one child buys something, other children will ask why you don't buy theirs, and continue to surround you and not let you leave. It's really low quality! Please pay attention to those who force you to buy something, and don't buy it. If you are spoiled, you will grow up to be a big deal!

The Walking Marriage Bridge is located in the Caohai area in the southeast of Lugu Lake. It is the only bridge on the lake. Due to the long-term siltation under the bridge, the water depth has become shallower and dense reeds have grown. From a distance, it looks like a sea of ​​grass, so the locals call it "Caohai".

There is a walking marriage bridge in Lugu Lake, connecting the villages on both sides of the lake, providing convenience for villagers to practice walking marriage, and the scenery is superb.

The Walking Marriage Bridge is a stop on the Lugu Lake tour. It is the only bridge on Lugu Lake. It is built on the sea of ​​grass. The bridge is more than 300 meters long and can be crossed in about half an hour on foot.

Caohai and the Walking Marriage Bridge are together. The driver dropped us off at the bridge head and waited for us at the opposite parking lot. He specifically told us to walk straight along the road and not to take the forks on the left and right. The Walking Marriage Bridge is a crowded place even in the off-season. There are people coming and going on the bridge. After walking out, I didn't plan to walk on the observation deck again.

我個人覺得一般的景點,沒什麼主要的特色

It is quite unique. There are more people on the bridge during holidays. The scenery of the sea of ​​grass on both sides and the mountains in the distance is beautiful.

The Walking Marriage Bridge is the only bridge on Lugu Lake. It is located in the Caohai area in the southeast waters. A wooden bridge connects the two banks, providing convenience for men and women who engage in walking marriages. The Walking Marriage Bridge was once regarded as a witness of love. If you have enough time, you should stay here for a few days to get a deeper understanding of the Mosuo customs and culture.

Legend has it that Lugu Lake is a place suitable for chance encounters, but it is not very suitable for older people like us. As for walking marriage, forget it. We did walk on the Walking Marriage Bridge, but that was just a stroll and a view. But it is indeed a good place to daydream.

Originating from the unique marriage culture of the Mosuo people, it is not very ornamental.

The last stop is Caohai, where the famous walking marriage bridge is located. If you want to understand the unique cultural customs of the Mosuo people, then come to Lugu Lake.

When we arrived, it was already past four in the afternoon, so there weren't many people. In fact, the wooden bridge is not very long. There is a stone road across it. There is a bridge at each end as you go forward. We didn't know if we would be able to meet in the end, so we chose the bridge on the right because the scenery was great. We took some photos there and came back without completing the whole journey.

It is an ideal place for strolling across the sea of ​​grass. There are parking lots and public toilets at the bridgehead. There is a high ground at the bridgehead of the Yunnan section, where you can take a bird's-eye view of the entire Walking Marriage Bridge.

The women of the Mosuo tribe are now responsible for earning money to support the family. You will understand the details when you go there. Ask the Mosuo women to braid colorful braids for you on the Walking Marriage Bridge. You will definitely braid colorful braids when you go to Yunnan. Remember to bargain. In Lijiang, it costs 10 yuan for four to six braids, and in Lugu Lake, it costs 10 yuan for ten braids. It is not easy for women to support the family.

A must-see attraction in Lugu Lake, it is the main symbol of the Mosuo people's walking marriage. It connects the two banks, and the fence is covered with prayer flags. The breeze blows, which is a different feeling. The tour guide said that we can't walk to the end, because the end symbolizes the end of blessings and luck, so respect the local customs and turn back halfway.

The Walking Marriage Bridge is very beautiful. I also took pictures of its origin. The wooden paths that cross Lugu Lake have helped many lovers to get married! It is suitable for taking photos and is a must-see attraction around the lake. It is open to the public for free!

The scenery on the Walking Marriage Bridge is very beautiful and suitable for taking photos, but it was raining a little when we were there and the sunshine was not very good.

The Walking Marriage Bridge is worthy of being called the "No. 1 Love Bridge". Many young men and women come here from far away to walk hand in hand across this ancient and mysterious wooden bridge.

The sea of ​​grass next to it is great for taking photos. There are also some people braiding colorful hair and selling accessories on the bridge. You can go shopping.

It is no longer the original Walking Marriage Bridge. It is a newly built bridge for tourists. PS: Walking marriage is just a legend.

The local customs in the past are probably no longer popular now.

Singles, remember to chop three times when you reach the end of the Walking Marriage Bridge, then you will have all kinds of opportunities. Haha, even though I knew it was fake, I still chopped three times obediently~

The view from the Walking Marriage Bridge is nice. There are some children selling things on the bridge, and the prices are higher than usual, but according to regulations, there are no stalls on the bridge. There are telescopes on the Walking Marriage Bridge, which can be used to scan the code. There are local stalls opposite the bridge, mostly for accessories, and you can braid colorful braids for 10 yuan and 8 braids. There are also Mosuo people setting up stalls here, inviting passers-by to have free homemade barley wine and local specialties.

The Marriage Bridge is right outside Caohai Wharf.

According to legend, a long time ago, a couple in love lived on both sides of Caohai Lake. At night, the man rowed a pig trough boat to the other side to date his beloved woman. At dawn the next day, he rowed the pig trough boat back home. Regardless of wind or rain, cold or hot, the man never stopped. Seeing her lover rowing back and forth between the two sides of Caohai Lake every day, the woman felt very distressed and came up with the idea of ​​building a bridge on Caohai Lake. After the two agreed, they began to build a wooden bridge on Caohai Lake, which was later called the "Walking Marriage Bridge". The Walking Marriage Bridge spans Caohai Lake, connecting the villages on both sides, providing a channel for men and women to date, and is known as the "No. 1 Magpie Bridge in the World".

The current Walking Marriage Bridge is a 300-meter-long wooden bridge extending from the reeds in the sea of ​​grass, close to the old bridge. The original wood of the nearly 100-year-old old bridge has rotted or been destroyed and scattered in the sea of ​​grass.

The other side of the bridge is a stone road with stalls selling various things. You can also choose not to walk along the stone road after getting off the bridge. You should find something different.

The Mosuo people's walking marriage bridge has a special custom. It is next to Caohai and has a nice view.

It is a wooden bridge across the grassland. The unique marriage custom of the Mosuo people makes this bridge romantic. It is said that the grassland is most beautiful in spring when it is full of flowers, but the golden withered grass in winter is also very colorful.

The Walking Marriage Bridge is just above the sea of ​​grass. The scenery is beautiful, but I met some unpleasant people.

Once you walk onto the Walking Marriage Bridge, many children will run up to follow you. They all have some melon seeds and nuts to sell. A little girl saw us and ran over to us and said, "Sister, please buy some melon seeds. Please help the business. Everyone else has bought some." We ignored her and continued walking forward. She followed us for a while and said, "Just treat it as poverty alleviation and disaster relief?" We still ignored her. She suddenly said, "If you don't want to buy, then don't buy. Why are you pretending to be a good person?"

??? Are children in their teens already so terrible? I suddenly remembered that our driver said he was considered educated among the Mosuo people and had studied up to the sixth grade of primary school? ?

Well... Anyway, just ignore them and enjoy the beautiful scenery.

There is a beautiful legend here - the story of Axia. The grass sea of ​​the walking marriage bridge is very large. The two ends of the bridge connect two villages. When we went there, the weather was still relatively cold. The grass sea was mainly yellow, and there was not much green. It must be very beautiful in summer. Go to the lakeside to see the stars at night. The temperature here is very low at night in early May, so you need to wear a thin windbreaker.

In winter, the Walking Marriage Bridge is lined with withered yellow reeds, which appear a beautiful golden color under the warm winter sun, creating a sharp contrast with the azure sky.

In summer, the grass is green, water birds are dancing, and walking on the bridge is a relaxing and pleasant experience.

There are many small vendors selling various small commodities and local specialties on the Marriage Bridge now. Please purchase with caution.

There are two pig trough boats dating at the bridgehead of Walking Marriage Bridge. It is said that the villagers used to raise pigs, so there are many pig troughs, but later they stopped raising pigs and used them for boating. The driver said that there was not so much grass in the lake before, because now the villagers don’t raise buffaloes, so the grass is growing more and more.

Caohai Walking Marriage Bridge is very suitable for people who like photography to take some creative pictures...

Be sure to climb up the southern hill to take a panoramic view.

I always thought that few people came to Lugu Lake, but I found it was still very popular when I came to the Marriage Bridge. Maybe everyone had come out at this time or there were many people staying nearby? Anyway, the bridge was full of people. But we unexpectedly found a protruding plank road next to the Marriage Bridge. I don’t know what it is used for, or it is purely for viewing. There are very few people, and the angle is also good.

Compared with the Walking Marriage Bridge and the Houlongshan Plank Road, there are many more people. There are many vendors around, but it is worth stopping to pass through the sea of ​​grass, and the sea of ​​grass in winter has a unique flavor.

If you go to the Marriage Bridge from Lugu Lake Town, do not navigate to the Marriage Bridge, otherwise you will have to walk a long way to get there after getting off the bus. Simply search for the Marriage Bridge on the map and select a hotel nearby as the destination to successfully navigate.

There is a small hill opposite the Walking Marriage Bridge. You can climb to the top to overlook the entire panorama. Be sure to regulate your breathing, otherwise you will suffocate!

You can only walk halfway across the Walking Marriage Bridge, not all the way to the end, otherwise your relationship will come to an end. When you reach the Walking Marriage Bridge, there is a viewing platform on the hill beside the road, where you can see the panoramic view of the Walking Marriage Bridge.

Caohai cruise costs 80 yuan per person. You can experience the feeling of walking on the grass in Caohai. The grass is soft and comfortable to step on.

The Walking Marriage Bridge runs north-south. There is still a long way to go from the north to the bridge. There are many stalls doing business along the way. The food is delicious. The duck eggs are also good.

The grass was only half grown at that time of year, so the scenery was not very good.

The Mosuo people are a matriarchal society and a land of women. My girlfriends seem to be very interested in the walking marriage of the land of women. When they see handsome men and beautiful women in Mosuo, they always want to find out whether walking marriage still exists in modern society. The answer really varies from person to person.

The Walking Marriage Bridge is one of the most attractive spots on the edge of Lugu Lake. One of the plans when coming to Lugu Lake is to walk on the Walking Marriage Bridge. It is said that walking on it can help you find your partner. Take some good photos and look around here, and you may meet the girl you like.

I saw this when I was riding an electric bike around Lugu Lake. Hehe! Let’s go!

There were too many people at the Walking Marriage Bridge, so we didn't get off the bus to go to these two places. But you must learn about the Walking Marriage Bridge and the Walking Marriage culture. It is really a culture that makes people sigh. It is one of the reasons why Lugu Lake is called the "Land of Daughters". However, many people have a little knowledge of this culture and have many misunderstandings about it. So if you come to Lugu Lake and go to the Walking Marriage Bridge, you must feel this unique culture and their historical context.

The place where the marriage bridge is held has already entered the territory of Sichuan.

To be honest, there is nothing fun about walking on the marriage bridge, it is just to experience the local customs. As a result, many local women will carry baskets and ask you if you want to buy pecans. If you don't want to buy or feel annoyed, just ignore them. The tour guide will say that you must not walk the whole way, and turn back when you are almost there, otherwise it will have a bad meaning. There are many local people setting up barbecue stalls nearby, it is best not to eat, because it is not very hygienic and there are a lot of flies.

A local girl said that walking on the marriage bridge is for couples, not just for those who just pick the one.

Caohai has a sense of decay, and it is not good for taking photos. The main purpose is to understand the local Mosuo people's walking marriage customs. After crossing the Walking Marriage Bridge, the driver took us to have lunch. Although the environment is relatively poor and the taste of the dishes is also average, there are really a lot of dishes on the table. When in Rome, do as the Romans do and eat as much as possible.

The Walking Marriage Bridge is another surprise. This bridge connects two villages. It is said that it was built to facilitate the walking marriages between the brothers and sisters of the two villages. The scenery here is unique. The neat green reeds are scattered in groups of three or two, swaying in the lake, the sun shines on the water, the waves are sparkling, the distant mountains, the green grass, the setting sun, the boats, the quaint wooden plank road...

Wherever you look, you see pictures; wherever you step, you see the fairyland.

There is a bridge on Caohai Lake, in Sichuan, which was built to facilitate the travel between the two sides. When we went there, many primary school students came back from school on the bridge. Many young men and women also regard this place as a place to talk about love. The Mosuo people on the shore of Lugu Lake adhere to the custom of "walking marriage" that "men do not marry and women do not marry", so people also call this bridge the "Walking Marriage Bridge". The "Walking Marriage Bridge" is about 20 kilometers away from Luoshui Village.

I went there just after the Chinese New Year, and the sea of ​​grass I saw was golden against the blue sky and white clouds. It was a very, very magnificent sight.

From the viewing platform above, you can see the Walking Marriage Bridge and the panoramic view of Da Caohai. There are two ends of the Walking Marriage Bridge. I went to the Lama Temple side, where there are more parking spaces, but it is still a long way to the Walking Marriage Bridge. Of course, you can choose to ride a horse for 20 yuan. There are snacks and accessories on the road. If you really want to see the scenery, you should drive directly to the other end. You don’t have to walk so far. Park your car and go down to the Walking Marriage Bridge. You can see the panoramic view by climbing the mountain next to it.

It is a must-see attraction, so there are many people. If you want to take a panoramic photo of the Walking Marriage Bridge, you have to walk across the Walking Marriage Bridge and go up to the observation deck next to it to see it~

Caohai, covering an area of ​​15,000 mu, is located east of Lugu Lake. 37 species of aquatic plants, 42 species of rare birds, and 11 species of fish, shrimp, shellfish, snails, and frogs form a rare biological wonderland. The reeds in Caohai are like walls, and the waterways are intricate. The famous Walking Marriage Bridge is built on Caohai.

Due to the tight schedule, I only stayed in Lugu Lake for one night. I quickly appreciated its beauty, which was enough to shock me. I will come again next time. The sky is full of stars, and you are the most beautiful.

Located in Lugu Lake, Sichuan, it is one of the must-see attractions of Lugu Lake. The bridge itself is a memory of many Mosuo people and a symbol of the tradition of walking marriage. The tradition of walking marriage has become less and less common, but this bridge was built by Mosuo guys in the past to facilitate walking marriage. It is a romantic and sacred place! The sun shining on the reflection in the sea of ​​grass adds a bit of beautiful colors!

"If someone grabs your hand on the walking marriage bridge, you must remember to hold it back!" I told such a joke that day, and it was another joke. The customs of the Mosuo people are said to be still preserved. This walking marriage bridge has witnessed countless love stories. I imagine those shy Azhu and Axia also looked at such green mountains, blue sky, and sea of ​​grass, which changed from green to yellow, and from yellow to green. In a blink of an eye, a year has withered and flourished. There are countless stories in those years that we have never understood, and we don't need to miss them.

There is a new walking marriage bridge at Caohai Wharf, and the old walking marriage bridge is on the side of the 307 Provincial Highway around the lake. Obviously, there are many tourist buses parked there, and there are many local snacks, and the homemade pork sausage tastes very good.

In the Yi ethnic group’s wedding tradition, walking on the marriage bridge is a must.

Walking on the Marriage Bridge, I saw several parking spaces before I arrived, and I stopped at each one to take photos and check in.

It is near the Walking Marriage Bridge. The official parking area is packed with people. Some people park in the open space opposite.

As soon as I stopped, someone came to collect the fee of 10 yuan, but I happened to see an empty parking space on the opposite side, so I drove back into the parking area. It is still recommended to park in the official parking area, of course, if it is full, then park in the paid parking area. So it is very important to avoid the crowds and the walking marriage bridge is full of people coming and going, which is really difficult to take pictures, and there will be backlight if you are not careful.
