    This is my second time visiting Wuzhen. Last time, the combined ticket I bought left me a bit rushed. This time, I only went to Dongzha, which had relatively fewer tourists. I saw Mu Xin's former residence this time; its aesthetic layout is superb. I'll definitely go again sometime.

    I thought Wuzhen was the pinnacle of Jiangnan beauty, until I stumbled upon Xitang at night. It's often said that the beauty of Jiangnan lies hidden in the misty rain, but Xitang's night transforms that beauty into a tangible dream. As twilight washes over the bluestone slabs and lanterns light up one by one, their light and shadow mingling on the river's surface, I finally understand what "the lanterns are lit, and the ideal world is revealed" truly means. Walking along the covered corridor, my fingertips brushing against the weathered wooden pillars, I felt as if I had traveled back a century; standing by Yongning Bridge, even the wind carried the melody of "The Wanderer," every frame a natural cinematic scene. The red lanterns in Flower Lane are most eye-catching, their layers reflecting the water's hue, every snapshot a masterpiece of atmosphere; the bar street after nightfall is also fascinating, the folk songs emanating from the ancient buildings intertwining with the sound of flowing water to create a unique romance.

    Absolutely beautiful, perfect for relaxing and daydreaming! My little daughter and I leisurely strolled around for half a day, took a ride on a traditional rowboat, and had a fantastic experience! The boatman was incredibly knowledgeable about the local history and culture—amazing!!

    A very beautiful town, developed by the same developer as Wuzhen, boasts excellent cultural heritage and aesthetics. The antique-style buildings and waterways in the town are very well done. The background music features classical music, mainly cello and violin, with some jazz accompaniment. Walking through this "Chaozhou City of Music" feels like walking through a painting… The former residences of Chen Gelao, Xu Zhimo's soy sauce shop, and Principal Zheng all allow you to feel the local people's emphasis on education and the scholarly atmosphere. The only regret is the lack of a direct view of the tidal bore; the waves I saw weren't very large, but the natural scenery of the Qiantang River flowing upstream was indeed a pleasant surprise.

    Nanhu Lake is not only beautiful, but also filled with historical stories, particularly those related to the First National Congress of the Communist Party of China. There's even a museum there. The scenery is closely integrated with revolutionary education. A guided tour is highly recommended.

    The Halloween carnival was amazing! Parking was convenient, tickets were reasonably priced, and the chocolates inside were delicious 😋. I highly recommend going if there are any special events.
