#summervacay I just experienced the tranquil beauty of Nanxun Ancient Town! My aimless summer wanderings truly led me to appreciate the soul of this Jiangnan water village. The waterways, arched bridges, and the gently swaying traditional sculling boats beneath them are absolutely the essence of a classic ancient town. I found all the perfect spots for those iconic photos! As I strolled, I also discovered: Lush greenery lining the streets. Charming and interesting shops. I even stopped at Pangjintang (胖桔瑭食), a tea and dessert shop within the ancient town. While the mousse cake was definitely more for a pretty photo op than an exceptional taste experience, I found the environment incredibly comfortable and relaxing. It's the kind of place where you just want to sit back and soak in the atmosphere. Location: It's on the east side of the Covered Bridge, at 58 Xiatang East Street in Nanxun Ancient Town. My favorite part was just watching the reflections shimmer in the water, spending a long afternoon by the riverside. This kind of slow-paced ancient town is truly perfect for "wasting time" in the most beautiful way. #NanxunAncientTown #Jiangnan #WaterVillage #SlowTravel #SummerVibes #AncientTown #ChinaTravel #Huzhou #RelaxAndUnwind

I've lived in Shanghai for 4 years, and it's my favorite city in the world. It's fun, modern, traditional, and filled with so many options! Here are some of my must-do recommendations for your visit: Visit the Bund: The Bund is a waterfront promenade that offers stunning views of the city skyline. It's a great place to walk, take photos, or just people-watch. Explore Yu Gardens: Yu Gardens are a beautiful example of traditional Chinese gardens. They're a great place to relax and escape the hustle and bustle of the city. Take a walk through a water village: There are several water villages located around Shanghai. These villages are a great way to experience the traditional way of life in China. Visit Disney Resort Shanghai: Disney Resort Shanghai is a great place to visit if you're traveling with children or if you're a child at heart. There are rides, shows, and attractions for everyone to enjoy. Sample the local cuisine: Shanghai is a foodie's paradise! There are restaurants serving food from all over the world, but I recommend trying some of the local specialties, such as xiaolongbao (steamed dumplings), wonton noodles, and Shanghainese fried rice. No matter what your interests are, you're sure to find something to love in Shanghai. #shanghai #visitshanghai #travel #travelchina #citybreak #foodie #disney #watervillage #modern #traditional
