An Underrated Water Town in Jiangnan ~ Shaoxing

Travel Route Yangcha Lake / Huangjiu Town / East Lake / Lu Xun's Former Residence / Cangqian Straight Street / Shusheng's Hometown / Xixiaolu / Anchang Ancient Town 1 Yangcha Lake A slender ancient path on the blue lake surface. Taking a stroll along the path in the evening and enjoying the breeze is quite pleasant. 2 Huangjiu Town A quiet, less crowded ancient water town with small bridges and flowing water, avoiding the tourist crowds. You can visit the clustered distilleries, Yue Brewing Workshop, Xinqiao, Huangjiu Utensils Exhibition Hall, Xu Xilin's Former Residence, Jiuyan Yanglong Bureau, and also take a Wupeng boat ride without waiting in line. This time, I stayed at Tingrun·Dongpu | Fuyi Tang Holiday Homestay in Huangjiu Town! It's perfect for experiencing a slow life on weekends. You can leisurely stroll around the town in the morning. The homestay offers attentive service, a café, and a Huangjiu-themed bar where you can enjoy a cup of Huangjiu coffee to relax in the afternoon. You can also experience the slow life of Jiangnan water towns on a Wupeng boat.
