My recent trip to Zhouzhuang felt like a dream I never wanted to wake from!
🚗🚗🚗🚗 Itinerary
✅Day1: Arrive in Zhouzhuang in the morning and check into your riverside homestay (mine had stunning bridge-and-canal views right outside the window!).
For lunch, choose a waterside restaurant and try their steamed white fish - so tender it melts in your mouth, perfectly paired with Grandma's Pickles and rice.
Spend the afternoon exploring famous sites like Shen House and Zhang House to experience classic Jiangnan water town architecture.
Cap off the evening with tea at a riverside teahouse while listening to soft Wu dialect melodies.
✅Day2:
Wake early to see Zhouzhuang's tranquil morning beauty. Visit Quanfu Temple to hear morning bells and pray for blessings.
At lunch, savor the famous Wansan Braised Pork - fatty yet not greasy, with fall-off-the-bone tenderness.
The afternoon highlight is the immersive multidimensional show "This Is Zhouzhuang" - the trip's crowning experience!
The performance is absolutely breathtaking! From the opening spectacular stage effects, you'll feel instantly transported through Zhouzhuang's past and present.
The actors seem to step out of paintings, with every movement and expression telling Zhouzhuang's story.
Zhouzhuang truly is a place you'll never want to leave~
