Six places in Zhoushan, East China's Zhejiang province have been designated provincial 3A- and 4A-level scenic areas, according to an announcement by the city's bureau of culture, tourism, radio, television and sports on Nov 14. 

Dinghai district's Xiaosha sub-district, Putuo district's Shenjiamen sub-district and Zhanmao sub-district as well as Shengsi county's Shengshan town and Gouqi township have been listed among the provincial 4A scenic attractions. 

Daishan county's Changtu town has been shortlisted as a provincial 3A scenic spot.
