Golden Hour in Xitang: Chasing the Perfect Sunset on the Canals

#discoverchina #xitang
As the clock strikes 5 pm, Xitang transforms into a bustling hub of activity, with crowds pouring in to enjoy the free entry to this ancient water town. The narrow cobblestone streets and arched bridges fill with visitors eager to experience the charm of this picturesque destination. The golden hour casts a warm glow over the canals, and the best way to soak in the magic is aboard a traditional boat cruise, gently gliding past centuries-old houses reflected in the shimmering water. I was fortunate enough to witness the most breathtaking sunset here—the sky painted in hues of crimson, orange, and pink, blending seamlessly with the tranquil scenery. For a moment, time seemed to stand still, as the fading light bathed Xitang in an ethereal beauty that left an unforgettable impression.
