"The Most Beautiful Riverside Cities"

Here's a brief Wuzhen travel guide: ❤️❤️Preliminary Preparations Documents: Bring your ID card or other valid ID. Clothing: Prepare appropriate clothing according to the season. Pay attention to sun protection in summer, bring a jacket for the large temperature difference between morning and evening in spring and autumn, and keep warm in winter. Others: Camera, power bank, etc. 🚗🚗Transportation Guide External Transportation: You can travel from Hangzhou, Shanghai, and other places. From Hangzhou, you can take a bus (about CNY 35) or high-speed rail plus bus (about CNY 50). You can also drive, but book your accommodation in advance to solve parking problems. Internal Transportation: There are rickshaws (CNY 5-8/km) and taxis (starting price CNY 5, CNY 2 per kilometer thereafter) in the town. There are hand-cranked boats and sightseeing buses in the scenic area. The Dongzha Scenic Area boat costs CNY 80/one way, with a maximum of 8 people per boat. The Xizha Scenic Area chartered boat costs CNY 120/one way (8:00–17:00) and CNY 180/one way (17:00–22:00), with a maximum of 6 people per boat, including children and infants, and no stops between the starting and ending points. The Xizha Scenic Area sightseeing bus has a one-ticket system, costing CNY 5/person for a single trip. 💰💰Ticket Information Dongzha: CNY 110, Xizha: CNY 150, Dongzha and Xizha combined ticket: CNY 190. For a one-day trip, it is recommended to only buy the Xizha ticket. 🚶🏻‍♀️🚶🏻‍♂️Itinerary Morning: Depart from Hangzhou/Shanghai and arrive at the Xizha Water Market at 9:00 am to enjoy the morning tea performance and taste Dingsheng Cake and mutton noodles. At 10:30 am, go to the Muxin Art Museum to experience the minimalist architecture, which is suitable for taking photos. At 12:00 pm, go to the Xuchang Sauce Garden to see the century-old sauce jars and try handmade sauce. Afternoon: At 1:30 pm, stroll around the Dongzha perimeter to enjoy the riverside scenery without tickets and visit the former residence of Mao Dun. At 3:00 pm, go to Nanzha Old Street to shop for blue printed cloth and taste Sanbai wine. At 4:30 pm, go to the Wuzhen Post Office to send postcards and get a limited edition postmark. Evening: At 6:00 pm, experience a night cruise on a hand-cranked boat and enjoy the lights and sounds of the oars. At 7:30 pm, go to the open-air cinema and bar street for a cocktail and listen to folk music to end a wonderful day. 🍚🍚Food Recommendations Jinji Pastry Shop: Dingsheng Cake CNY 3/piece, Wumifan CNY 5, delicate taste. Shusheng Mutton Noodles: CNY 42, large portion, lots of meat. Radish Pancake: Affordable, the Nanzha Old Lady's stall is more authentic. ❤️Tips to Avoid Pitfalls For a one-day trip, only buy the Xizha ticket, the combined ticket for Dongzha and Xizha is not cost-effective. Avoid staying inside the scenic area; choose homestays outside the scenic area for cheaper options. Don't be fooled by rickshaw tours of Nanzha; it's within walking distance. ❤️Photography Tips In the early morning, wear a light-colored cheongsam with an oil-paper umbrella to create a dreamy atmosphere in the misty rain. In the afternoon, wear Hanfu with a round fan and take photos from the second floor of the dyeing workshop. In the evening, wear a slip dress with a shawl and take photos in front of the neon lights on Bar Street or on a hand-cranked boat. Excellent shooting spots include Wenchang Pavilion Wharf for morning mist and the second floor of Qiaoliqiao Teahouse for overhead shots.
