Jade Belt Bridge
The Jade Belt Bridge (Simplified Chinese: 玉带桥; Traditional Chinese: 玉帶橋; Pinyin: Yù Dài Qiáo), also known as the Camel's Back Bridge, is an 18th century pedestrian Moon bridge located in the Summer Palace in Beijing, China. It is famous for its tall thin single arch. The Jade Belt Bridge is the most well-known of the six bridges on the western shore of Kunming Lake. It was erected in the years 1751 to 1764, during the reign of the Qianlong Emperor. It is made from marble and other white stone. The bridge railings are decorated with carvings of cranes. The clearance of the arch was chosen to accommodate the dragon boat of the Qianlong Emperor.
