Trang 1Describe a bridge you know
well
Whoever has been to Hue ancient city will always
admire the gracefulness of Trang Tien Bridge
Built a long time ago, Trang Tien Bridge was
made of steel and concrete and supported by
huge underwater columns which extend to a
Trang 2depth of over 150 meters under the water It is
composed of 12 spans joining the left bank to the
right bank of the Perfume River From far away it
looks like white arches emerging from the blue
skyline
On bright moonlit nights, standing on the bridge
you can see myrisds of vacillating stars reflecting
on the clear and blue waters How cool and
relaxed you feel at that time! The light evening
breeze rising from the river caresses your skin
Trang 3and fills your lungs with soft fragrance All around
you are coolness and quietness In the stillness of
the long night you can hear the little waves
lapping against the sampans gliding gently below
Now and again a sweet melodious chant rises
from somewhere and then gradually vanishes in
the quiet atmosphere
During the day, however, the sceneries are
livelier Cars, motorbikes and bicycles are
streaming towards the other side of the river
Trang 4Groups of schoolgirls, dressed in white, with
conical palm hats on their heads are gracefully
walking over the bridge to their Dong Khanh
School, talking and laughing merrily The flaps of
their white traditional dress or ao dai are fluttering
in the fresh morning breeze just like butterflies’
wings
Tourist will foster sweet recollections of this
famous bridge forever once they have visited this
Old Capital City
