My favorite ancient town in Shanghai!

The "smartest" ancient town in Shanghai, free to enter and full of tourists The "smartest" ancient town in Shanghai, free to enter and full of tourists, merchants make a fortune In a big city like Shanghai, where every inch of land is precious, there is a Jiangnan water town hidden away - Zhujiajiao Ancient Town. Zhujiajiao Ancient Town is one of the four historical and cultural towns in Shanghai, dating back to the Song and Yuan dynasties. The ancient town is full of small bridges and flowing water, the sound of oars, bluestone alleys, Ming and Qing style residential buildings and historical sites, and pieces of blue bricks and black tiles, like a fresh and elegant ink painting. Compared to other bustling attractions in Shanghai, stroll through the streets and alleys of the ancient town to experience the elegance and tenderness of Jiangnan, and appreciate the unique ancient charm of the magic city! Choose a good weather day to go, Zhujiajiao under the blue sky and white clouds has its own filter, and it looks good in any photo! Attractions Fangsheng Bridge: It is the largest, longest and highest five-hole stone arch bridge in Shanghai, known as the "First Bridge in Shanghai". You can take a panoramic view at the pier, and the water surface is sparkling at sunset, with the lights on both sides of the river slightly bright, creating a great atmosphere. Yuanjin Zen Temple entrance: It is the most beautiful place to take photos in the whole Zhujiajiao, with a very open view and boats coming and going, the water view is more open than Wuzhen and Xitang. Ancient town night view: From the evening when the lights are on to the red lanterns hanging up and the lights are on, the beautiful night view is not inferior to the daytime! In general, tourists are concentrated in Beida Street, Caohe Street, Dongjing Street, and Xijing Street, while other places are less crowded. The area around Fuxing Bridge and Zhonghe Bridge is less crowded, so it retains the authentic ancient town life and is more lively.
