Explore Wuzhen West Street: A Travel Guide to China's Most Beautiful Water Town

Wuzhen is a famous ancient water town in China. Its quaint buildings, winding waterways and rich cultural stories attract many tourists. These buildings can be traced back to the Ming and Qing Dynasties, showcasing a long cultural heritage and unique folk customs. The best way to travel to Xitang and Xizha for one day is to choose a local tour🚗, which takes about two hours from Hangzhou and explores some of the must-see attractions and delicacies in the two ancient towns🫶🍷: 1. Xitang Scenic Area: It preserves a large number of ancient buildings from the Ming and Qing dynasties, as well as scenic spots where nine rivers interweave. Small bridges, flowing water, and houses here represent the traditional Jiangnan water village style. The ancient town contains many pavilions and admission is free. 👍Take a boat here for 30 minutes and enjoy the scenery on both sides of the river. It is worth it. Local residents sell local products in the shops. Here I tried the local white fish 🐟. The chef used a variety of cooking methods for the freshly caught whitewater fish 🍳. The most famous one is to cook the fish with fresh shrimp, clams and other river fish into soup 🥣, which tastes delicious. Zongzi is also very famous. 2. Xizha Scenic Area: A must-visit place when visiting Wuzhen. It is a relatively commercial tourist attraction with a large area and many ancient buildings. There are also rich performance activities🎭, such as bleaching and dyeing and wine making, etc. There are also many photo-taking spots, which have developed into a distinctive ancient town. It is recommended to visit in the afternoon, so you can wait until dusk 🌆. The night view here is very beautiful. There are restaurants and bars beside the river for entertainment. If you like, you can stay in a hotel or B&B in the ancient town for a day, which is great 👍. If you come to Suzhou and Hangzhou for tourism and love traditional culture and picturesque waterside scenery, Xitang and Xizha are definitely tourist destinations not to be missed when visiting Suzhou and Hangzhou. #SuzhouAttractions #MainlandChinaAttractions #Wuzhen #XiZha #XiTangAncientTown #TravelingAlone #FindYourTravelBackpack #Hangzhou #localtour
