The Baiwang Bridge is a historic stone arch bridge over a stream in Yuecheng District of Shaoxing, Zhejiang, China.
The original bridge dates back to the Tang dynasty (618–907), but because of war and natural disasters has been rebuilt numerous times since then.[1] The present version was completed in 1689, during the reign of Kangxi Emperor of the Qing dynasty (1644–1911).[2]
On 6 May 2013, it was listed among the seventh batch of "Major National Historical and Cultural Sites in Zhejiang" by the State Council of China.[3]
