Allusions and legends: The Origin of Tiansheng Bridge
It is said that a long time ago, the three divine dragons of Tianlong, Qinglong and Black Dragon came to the world to visit and found that the scenery of Wulong in Chongqing was beautiful, so they lived here. But these three dragons did all kinds of bad things and endangered the people. Whenever someone passes a steep cliff, they eat him. So everyone here was frightened and dared not walk down the cliff again.
When the Jade Emperor learned about this, he appointed Zhang Guolao, one of the Eight Immortals, to come down to earth to punish the Three Dragons. Old Zhang Guolao came to the world, regained the magic power of the Three Dragons, and ordered them to lie on the ground, becoming a bridge to make up for past mistakes. Therefore, there are now three natural stone arch bridges named after Tianlong, Qinglong and Black Dragon. The sinkhole where Tianlong was once located was named Tianlong Keng. Today, the Tianlong pattern is still engraved on the stone walls of Tianlongkeng Scenic Area
