Education
Among the handful of schools in Jiangshan is Jiangshan Experimental Primary School, which is part of Zhejiang University's [http://www.globaltefl.net/summer/summer05.html/ Global TEFL network]. The program sends native English-speakers to their network schools to teach English for periods of 2–4 weeks.[http://ginia.wordpress.com/about/ About « An American in Jiangshan] Aside from these teachers, Jiangshan sees few Westerners because of its relative geographical obscurity. Jiangshan High School is also in Jiangshan.
Transportation
