Bai Juyi 白居易 772–846

I could still vaguely remember the days in RVHS when I recite the poems of Bai Juyi. One of them will be "Song of Eternal Sorrow".



Well-loved by people in Suzhou when he assumed the post of the Governor here.

So, this is the one of the bridges he had donated to the people in Suzhou.
