Zhang Jinxian, a farmer from Zhao County, north China’s Hebei province, makes his second miniature Zhaozhou Bridge on Sep. 5, 2015. According to Zhang, the miniature loyally copies all the structures and decorations of the real Zhaozhou Bridge – even the patterns engraved on the fence are the same. With a history of about 1500 years, Zhaozhou Bridge is the oldest and best preserved open-shoulder stone arch bridge in the world. (Photo/CNS) |
