Lugou Bridge (Marco Polo Bridge)

Lugou Bridge, also known as Marco Polo Bridge, is in the southwest suburbs of Beijing. Originally it was built in 1193, during the Jin Dynasty, and was reconstructed several times in the following dynasties. The marble bridge has eleven arches and 485 finely carved lions in distinctive style on each baluster. It was also here that Marco Polo Bridge Incident happened, which led to the War of Resistance against Japan.
