Baozhu Bridge

The Baozhu Bridge, formerly known as Huozhu Bridge , is a historic stone arch bridge in Yuecheng District, Shaoxing, Zhejiang, China.

History
Originally built in the Song dynasty (960–1279), the current bridge was rebuilt in 1749 during the ruling of Qianlong Emperor of the Qing dynasty (1644–1911). The bridge has a width of 3.95 m and a length of 30 m. There are seven stone steles on the bridge, of which the largest stone stele in the middle is carved with peach reliefs, and the other six on both sides are carved with Chinese dragon reliefs.

In August 2002, it has been inscribed as a municipal cultural relic preservation organ by the Government of Shaoxing.
