It's still Shaoxing that satisfies all my imaginations of the Jiangnan water town
If you want to go to Jiangnan, then I recommend you must go to Shaoxing once
Narrow alleys, small bridges, stone roads, black awning boats...
Here encompasses everything that people should have in Jiangnan, but it's more than that
Shaoxing has produced many famous scholars since ancient times
The stories here are romantic and heroic
Every scene of this scholarly small city hides people's love and expectation for life
.

Typical Jiangnan classical garden, the garden is large, now the lotus in the lotus pond in front of the Lonely Crane Pavilion is open, the pure white lotus is very beautiful, I also like Dongyuan very much, a large area of rockery is staggered, the pavilion and water pavilion reflect in the pool is super beautiful

Shaoxing's most iconic attraction, a must-visit place for tourists in Shaoxing, the most people, get away from the book and experience the real life from the Herb Garden to the Three Flavors Book House
.
📍Cangqiao Straight Street
🎫Free tickets

The 1st entrance is more commercialized, there are more shops and restaurants, it's very lively, the night view is very good, you can go for a walk at night, the 3rd entrance is obviously less crowded, and it returns to the original ecology more
.
📍West Small Road Historical Block
🎫Free tickets
⏱: 1-2h
The filming location of the movie 'Summer of West Small River', not commercialized at all, the whole street is not long, there are few people, both sides are old residential houses, very Jiangnan water town flavor
.
📍Book Sage's Hometown

The hometown of Wang Xizhi and Cai Yuanpei, the cultural atmosphere is strong, calligraphy elements can be seen everywhere on the walls, the scenery is beautiful, my favorite attraction, strongly recommended!!!
.
📍Eight-character Bridge

The old neighborhood is very original, the surrounding area is local residents, there are more elderly people, very suitable for humanistic street shooting
.
