Autumnal Bridge Over the Qinhuai River, Nanjing

An expansive scenic view along the Qinhuai River in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, China, featuring a traditional Chinese stone arch bridge with elegant white-gray arches and ornate wooden railings, flanked by small pavilions at each end. The bridge is surrounded by dense autumn foliage in brilliant reds, oranges, and golds, with leaves drifting onto the calm water. Mist hugs the riverbank as warm golden-hour light bathes the scene, creating shimmering reflections and soft shadows. In the background, low riverside buildings with gray tiled roofs and white walls line the bank. The atmosphere is tranquil and timeless, captured in a hyper-detailed, photorealistic style with rich textures of stone, wood, and foliage, cinematic composition with a low foreground along the water’s edge.
