Ningbo sits at the intersection of three rivers, it’s easy to understand why a city was built here centuries ago. It seems that no matter where you are, a short walk will bring you to the riverside here. The best time to take a walk across some of the many bridges in Ningbo is at night. Sections of the rivers and bridges have stunning light decorations that flash and run along the water. Locals practice dance routines and fly lighted kites that look like UFOs from afar.
