9 Days the Bridges of Madison County


The old bridge, a couple of distant and lonely tourists, and then gradually close to and fall in love with each other. The soul, had seeking for long, found the forever support in the end...
Such endless love is forced to separate for the realistic helplessness. Year after year, the lingering & sweet affection and the life of a drifter are never-forgotten.
In China, there is such a place, nearly 1,000 of quietly bridges wait here in the silence, contacting people between the mountains. Look forward to the arrival of love.
If you are looking for true love, remember: the other side of the bridge is the people you are looking for.
