🏨【Accommodation Recommendations】
🔸Inside the scenic area: Choose 【Tong’an Inn】 for waterside rooms (the only true pillow-on-water experience)

🔸Outside the scenic area: 【Wuzhen Nianwan Village】 offers great value! (5-minute walk + about 150 RMB per person)
🚗【Transportation Tips】
▪️Taking a bus from Hangzhou is faster than the high-speed train! (direct to the scenic area entrance)
▪️Choose parking lot P2! Closest to the entrance (5 RMB/hour)
💬【Most Unforgettable Experience】
"Sitting by the water pavilion daydreaming all afternoon🌊, watching rowing boats glide past the mottled pink walls, time really seemed to slow down..."
