Fujian and Zhejiang step up protection and renovation efforts to preserve wooden-roofed arch bridges

Tourists walk on the Qiancheng Bridge, a wooden-roofed arch bridge, in Tangkou Township of Pingnan County, southeast China's Fujian Province, Feb. 19, 2019. Roofed arch bridges have some of the most intricate architectural structures in Chinese wooden bridge building. Most existing Chinese wooden-roofed arch bridges are found in areas on the borders between Fujian and Zhejiang.
