Shanghai Jinze Ancient Town! An ancient town that has not been commercialized.

Jinze Ancient Town really shocked me.

I went there on a weekday afternoon, and there were hardly any tourists except for a few locals.

Unlike ordinary small towns, it really has the appearance of a well-renovated ancient town, with white walls and black tiles, Wupeng boats for tourists, ancient bridges and streams with a sense of history, and a few artistically decorated coffee and snack shops (most of which are not open on weekdays).

When the sun sets, the orange afterglow is sprinkled on the black tiles and reflected on the sparkling water. The poetic and picturesque scene is instantly visualized.

I have been to Wuzhen, Zhouzhuang, and Nanxun Ancient Town. They are beautiful, but there is almost no difference due to commercialization.

This is really the first time I have seen such a quiet and beautiful Jiangnan ancient town. Indeed, it is not big here, and there is no complete and convenient commercial facilities. Don't expect too much from it, but in the anxious and compact city life, come here to take a leisurely walk, as if time has slowed down, and I am really healed and moved.

Jinze Ancient Town, see you next time. Although you are not perfect, you are the only ancient town I want to visit again.
