This is a temporary bridge connecting Xiuwen county and Qingzhen county-level city, where the Red Army crossed the river during the Long March.

In recent years, Gubao town has been pursuing industrialization and has built a kiwi fruit base covering an area of nearly 70,000 mu (4,666.67 hectares). Suoqiao village has benefited greatly from the kiwi fruit industry.

At the beginning of this year, Xiuwen launched construction on a "red" village in Suoqiao village and hopes to turn it into an integrated demonstration site for rural revitalization.

Construction on the village is Xiuwen's way of celebrating the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China, as it is an important carrier of the Party's history and an important starting point for promoting rural revitalization.

The village is expected to become an ecological leisure tourism demonstration village with a beautiful environment, ecological civilization, a developed red cultural industry, a harmonious and orderly society, and prosperous and happy residents.
