Bazi Bridge

Bazi Bridge, dating from the Song Dynasty, is a historic stone bridge in Shaoxing renowned for its distinctive shape resembling the Chinese character '八' (eight). Visitors can walk across this well-preserved structure, observing the clever interlocking stonework that has supported it for centuries. The bridge spans a canal in the old city, surrounded by traditional white-walled houses and willow trees. Its unusual design, with two separate staircases meeting at the top, makes it a favorite spot for photography and a tangible link to Shaoxing's rich past.
