One of the highest bridges within any of China's coastal provinces, the Jiaxi Bridge carries a 2-lane road across the Jiaxi Brook in a beautiful mountainous region of Zhejiang Province that is becoming more and more popular to tourists looking to spend an afternoon away from the big cities of Shanghai, Hangzhou and Ningbo.
Just west of the Jiaxi Bridge is the Shuixiakong Scenic Area Elevator that descends into the gorge.
