The change of lighting concept takes into account the historical heritage and the beauty of the city
In the past, urban lighting pursued brightness, but today's lighting concept has changed, focusing on integrating Wuxi's local characteristics, taking into account the "upgrade" of Wuxi's historical heritage and the beauty of the city.
The Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal's first batch of bridge lighting upgrades and renovations will be known as "Jiangnan water alleys, out-of-print canals", and the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal will be "adapted to the scenery" and transformed into a beautiful and happy river that citizens love to see by using lighting aesthetics.
Walking on Wuqiao, you can see unique lamps and lanterns, like rice warehouses inlaid on the guardrails on both sides. Jiang Weiliang, a staff member of the Lighting Management Section of the Municipal Lighting and Drainage Management Center, introduced that Wuqiao is the only steel structure bridge on the Wuxi Canal, and it is also one of the four major rice markets in modern Chinese history, where the former site of Mi Wharf is located.
This upgrade adheres to "care for originality", and the installation of lighting equipment is concealed to protect the original style of bridge buildings. In particular, "rice warehouse theme" lamps are added to the side railings of the bridge, so that pedestrians can recall the past of "rice market" at night of brilliance.
As the first bridge in Wuxi to start construction and function as an urban flood control hub, Xianli Bridge has also "transformed".
This upgrade not only maintains the usual low-key and elegant style of the bridge, but also pays attention to the overall echo with the adjacent bridge——Liangyun Bridge. It uses the most comfortable color temperature and the most clear lines to highlight the most authentic appearance of the bridge body. Incisively and vividly, let the moonlight, light and water color together form the most harmonious light and shadow, and the reflection forms a sparkling scene on the bridge deck. The beauty of the pure and elegant light and shadow is indescribable.
