Abstract 8000 years ago, the well-known ancient culture of Kuahu Bridge was born in the south of Hangzhou Bay,
northern Zhejiang Province. However, it disappeared mystically after over 1000 years' splendor. For this phenomenon,
there exists no authentic explanation. Based on an analysis of the geography and land form of Kuahu Bridge and
Xiasun sites by using satellite remote sensing data, this paper puts forward a hypothesis that the astronomical
flood tide of the Qiantang River caused the collapse of the Kuahu Bridge. It is hoped that this viewpoint could
provide a useful train of thought for explaining the disappearance of this bridge.
