Russia: Shanghai

A Chinese card sent from Russia.
Bridge of Nine Turns Zigzags. The central part of the area, around the historic Huxinting Teahouse, is reached by way of the Bridge of Nine Turns Zigzags. It is said that evil spirits are unable to turn corners and the number nine signifies eternity, as well as denoting the highest form of patriarchial power.

Private swap. Thanks, Marinka!
