Depart from Hangzhou, a one-day trip to Shaoxing | In Shaoxing, dream a 2,500-year-old dream...

Dayu's flood control, Gou Jian's sleeping on firewood, Lanting's writing, Lu Xun's shouting... Shaoxing has never lacked literati and historical sites. This "museum without walls" has turned history into wine, which becomes more fragrant as it ages. The attractions of this Shaoxing one-day tour are all concentrated in Yuecheng District, which can basically be reached on foot and you can visit the city in one day. [Transportation Guide] See where to stay in Hangzhou and choose whichever is convenient. I live next to the subway station, so I go directly by subway 🚇Subway: Hangzhou Metro Line 5 to "Girl Bridge Station", transfer to Shaoxing Line 1 to go directly to "City Square" or "Lu Xun's Hometown" 🚆Train: Hangzhou South Station/Hangzhou Station ➡️Shaoxing Station, the former takes 🕐1h ➕💰 and the fare is 12.5 yuan, the latter takes 🕐half an hour ➕💰 and the fare is 9 yuan (Don't choose Shaoxing North Station, it's too far from the downtown attractions and inconvenient) 🚌In Shaoxing City: The distance between attractions is relatively close, you can walk or ride shared bicycles, and you can scan the bus code for Shaoxing Bus [Recommended routes] One-day tour route: City Square Wupeng Boat·South Line➡️Cangqiao Street➡️Lu Xun's Hometown➡️Chenyuan➡️Bazi Bridge➡️Sage of Calligraphy Hometown➡️Xixiao Road ✅ City Square Wupeng Boat South Line (immersive experience of the original Jiangnan water village life) Get off directly at Line 1 City Square Station, and walk a few minutes to the Wupeng Boat Wharf. 🛶South Line Tour Route: City Square→Baozhu Bridge→Shimen Bridge→Jiuwu Bridge→City Square, 120 yuan/boat/3 people, the duration is about 20 minutes The South Line is more classic, passing through Cangqiao Street, and passing several ancient bridges throughout the journey, such as Baozhu Bridge, Shimen Bridge, and Jiuwu Bridge. ✅ Cangqiao Street (real version of "Along the River During the Qingming Festival", experience the life in Jiangnan) ✅ Lu Xun's hometown (a must-visit place when you come to Shaoxing, there are many tourists, follow the textbook to check in Baicao Garden and Sanwei Bookstore) ✅ Chenyuan (Song-style classical garden, witness of the love story of Lu You and Tang Wan, night tour with performances is better) ✅ Baji Bridge (original ecological water village ancient alley, few people and quiet, experience the intangible cultural heritage Wupeng boat) ✅ The hometown of the Sage of Calligraphy (Wang Xizhi's former residence, ink style is very suitable for taking pictures) ✅ Xixiaolu Historic District (a living water village museum, a niche destination, many local residents, and a strong atmosphere of water village life) [Food Recommendation] 🌮There are many snacks: Shaoxing stinky tofu, rice wine series derivatives milk tea/coffee/popsicles, etc., fennel beans, drunken crabs & drunken crabs, cream pancakes, fried dumplings, Shaoxing three fresh... 🍽️ There are also many popular restaurants: - Yuexiang Wang Lao Han Stinky Tofu (on the list, need to queue) - Gao Lao Tai Cream Xiao Pan (on the list, tastes vary from person to person) - Huijingxuan Chenyuan Store (rice wine milk tea + rice wine popsicle) - Huangyiqiao Hotel (scallion duck + pickled cabbage fried mushrooms) - Aqiu Shiwantou (more tourists, good environment, less likely to step on thunder) - Xianheng Hotel (fennel beans + Taidiao wine + fermented chicken) - West Street Xu Wen Zhang Restaurant (steamed mold thousand sheets of meat pie + vegetarian roast goose + sweet and sour spare ribs) - Suyunzhai (Jiezhu cake + osmanthus cake) - Lao Huzi Restaurant (sauerkraut duck + braised bamboo shoots) - Hebutou Restaurant (Shao Sanxian) #Weekend Tour #Inland Tourism#Shaoxing City #Jiangnan Water Village
