Putuo district in Zhoushan, East China's Zhejiang province recently entered into a cooperation agreement with its namesake district in Shanghai, local media reported on April 11. 

Zhoushan Putuo is a fishing hub and a famous port city in China while Shanghai Putuo is known as a prosperous international metropolis. Despite sharing the same name, the two districts have their own unique characteristics in terms of industrial and resource layout.
