    Master and Apprentice Bridges

    师徒桥, Shitu Bridges

    The most famous site in Taishun County. Two covered wooden bridges in close proximity, namely the Dongxi Bridge (东溪桥, lit. 'East River Bridge'), which dates from the MIng Dynasty and the Beijian Bridge (北间桥, lit. 'North Bridge'), which dates from the Qing Dynasty. Collectively the two bridges are known as the Shitu Bridges (师徒桥), which literally means 'Master and Apprentice Bridges' or 'Teacher and Pupil Bridges'. The bridges now form the centrepiece of a park known as the Covered Bridges Cultural Park (廊桥文化园), which also includes several other historical sites, such as Zhang Shiyi's former residence (张十一故居) and the Bao Family Ancestral Hall (包氏宗祠).

  5. Eat Not mapped

    Papa John's

    The one Papa John's in Wenzhou is in the European City shopping district (欧洲城) opposite Pizza Hut. Their cheese sticks are a treat but be warned though they have every dish/pizza/noodles with pork which is frustration for non-pork eaters. There is a children's play area and it is very nice inside. Do not expect traditional American pizza menu!
