光相桥:该桥因旁原有光相寺而得名。始建于东晋,明隆庆元年(1567年)重修。单孔石拱桥,南北走向,跨老城河。拱券条石纵向分节并列砌筑,拱石上镌莲花座图案,上刻“南无阿弥陀佛”和“至正辛已重建光相桥”等题记。桥上置实体栏板和覆莲望柱,其中北端望柱上刻“隆庆元年吉日重修”字样。
Guangxiang Bridge is named after the original Guangxiang Temple which used to be next to the bridge. The bridge was first built in Eastern Jin, rebuilt in Ming Dynasty (1567). 
 
Guangxiang Bridge is an ancient stone bridge; it also is well-preserved today. It is next to the highway and there is a bridge called Yuewang Bridge located nearby. Yuewang Bridge has become part of the highway, while Guangxiang Bridge looks not popular with very few people walk through. The sides and surrounding areas of the bridge have been covered with rich vegetation. Along the bridge mostly are residential houses, which are relatively simple.

The following is some information translated from the link above:
 
Guangxiang Bridge is a single-hole stone arch bridge that runs north-south and crosses the Old Town River. The arch vouchers are longitudinally sectioned and juxtaposed, and the arched stone is on the lotus seat. The bridge is one of the best preserved stone bridges in Shaoxing. It has certain practical value for the study of the water bridge.
