[quote=COOLSPRINGS,364482]The Story That Made Broken Bridge Famous

West lake, a famous place of interest in China, has a long history and along with it a lot of stories. Some are real and some are imaginary.

Whatever they are, these stories are always touching and give the beautiful West Lake a much deeper meaning than what we see through our eyes.

There is a famous bridge on West Lake. It is called Broken Bridge. Although it is called Broken Bridge, it is not actually broken. It got its name from the way it look in winter. On a fine day after a heavy snowfall, from a distance the bridge seems to be broken in the middle which was the result of snow melting on the middle part.

Broken Bridge is famous because of its beautiful winter scene, but even more so because of a love story. It is the place where the beautiful Chinese love story of Xuxian and Bainiangzi started.

It's one of the four most popular traditional Chinese love stories. It is not a true story, but almost every one in China knows this story.

Broken Bridge is the place where Xuxian and Bainianzi met each other. When the two walked on the bridge that day, it suddenly became rainy. Bainiangzi, a beautiful girl, didn't have an umbrella, but Xuxian had one. So they shared the umbrella and started their first talk. Xuxian, the young man, was astonished by the beauty of Bainiangzi. They both liked each other very much and kind of fell in love at first sight.
