Lu Xi Hui Historic District
❤Recommended reason:
Lu Xi Hui is located on the bank of the Beijing-Hangzhou Ancient Canal and is the earliest commercial center and trading distribution center in Jiaxing. It is also one of the important areas that reflect the traditional characteristics of Jiaxing's water town. This was once a market for selling Lu Xi, hence the name Lu Xi Hui. There is a river running through the Lu Xi Hui area, three rivers surrounding the street, with developed water transportation, and many commercial ships dock here, and goods are traded here.
🌟Highlights:
The Lu Xi Hui historic district is composed of Lu Xi Hui, Xiu Nong and other streets and lanes, forming the layout of traditional residential buildings and vertical rivers, retaining a large number of traditional residences in good condition. The riverside buildings are all rebuilt according to traditional Jiangnan residences, forming a characteristic of Jiangnan water town. Today, the Lu Xi Hui historic district is built into a boutique themed cultural district that reflects the culture of the Jiangnan Canal and highlights the slow life of the Jiangnan city's water town, with the positioning of "relaxing canal". It mainly includes homestay inns, characteristic catering, cultural creativity and leisure commerce, creating a deep experiential leisure holiday cultural atmosphere for tourists.
