Zhoujing Bridge

Established in 1330, the bridge is also a three-hole stone arched one with a length of 17.26 meters.

Names of the bridge's sponsors and its building year are engraved on the bridge and a taijitu also appears on its pavement, both of which have been worn down for years out of repair.

However, the images of flowers and animals on both sides of the bridge are still clear with vivid figures and a rough way of engraving.

Different from the two other bridges, Zhoujing Bridge is covered with thick plants and modern buildings standing behind it can not damage the quaint feelings created by the bridge.
