The 1,700-year-old water village in China, known as the "Venice of China," is renowned for its winding stone pathways, bridges, and traditional-style buildings lining the riverbanks.🏞

Located 47.5km from Shanghai, it is one of the best-preserved ancient water towns in China and offers a glimpse into the country's rich history and culture. I have put together all the information you need to know before visiting.

My tips: 🌟
1. This place is crowded with both local and foreign visitors during weekends and public holidays in China. It is best to visit the town on a weekday, if possible, with your schedule.

2. As with most cities, the earlier in the morning you arrive, the easier it will be to get great photos without a lot of people in them. Most attractions open at 8:30 AM.
