Gongchen Bridge historic zone is expected to become an important window on Hangzhou as the city prepares to host the G20 Summit.
Located in the north of Hangzhou's Gongshu district, the bridge crosses China's Grand Canal, the longest and oldest artificial waterway in the world.
To its west is Qiaoxi, an area whose name literally translates to "west of the bridge".
