Wuzhen in Zhejiang is not only the most representative water town in the south of the Yangtze River, but also a window for our country's external publicity. The World Internet Conference Forum is located here, which has made it famous throughout the south and north of the river. With the rapid increase in the flow of people, the various prices in Wuzhen have also risen. So, is a 3-day 2-night luxury tour expensive? As long as it's well planned, the cost is not as high as imagined. 1. Ticket cost: A combined ticket for East Gate and West Gate is 199 yuan, Wucun scenic area is 100 yuan, and rowing boat in West Gate is 600 yuan, totaling 899 yuan. 2. Accommodation cost: Staying for two consecutive nights in the top hotel in West Gate, the room rate is 2700 yuan per night (including breakfast for two), totaling 5400 yuan for two nights. 3. Dining cost: The dining expenses in the West Gate scenic area are relatively high, but you can dine outside the scenic area, and you need to apply for multiple entries with your ticket. However, for convenience, I dined within the West Gate scenic area, and I don't mind the higher prices. The average consumption per person is 180 yuan, which is 360 yuan for 2 meals a day, and 1080 yuan for 3 days. 4. Transportation cost: Taxi from Tongxiang high-speed railway station to West Gate scenic area is 110 yuan, and the return trip from West Gate scenic area to Tongxiang high-speed railway station is 100 yuan, totaling 210 yuan. All of the above are luxury expenses. For ordinary sightseeing, the cost is less than 1000 yuan. Next time, I will come to experience ordinary sightseeing again and share the travel expenses with everyone once more. The total budget for this 3-day 2-night Wuzhen luxury tour is 899 yuan + 5400 yuan + 1080 yuan + 210 yuan = 7589 yuan.

If you only want to visit one ancient town, then I recommend Wuzhen🥲. Here is a worry-free guide that doesn't involve retracing your steps, be sure to save it~ 🚗Transportation advice: Friends nearby can choose to drive or take a bus, with departures from Hangzhou West Lake or Shanghai, costing only a few dozen per person, saving more time💯. ✅Tongxiang travel: You can check the bus schedule, there are also buses at night~ Remember to apply for the Tongxiang ride code in advance👌. ⚠Avoid pitfalls guide: You must take this part seriously❗ 1⃣During the winter vacation, Xizha has many performances🎶, such as night lantern festivals, water markets, lantern boat parades, and lantern bridge walks for blessings, which will continue until 2.25. The schedule of the programs has been organized for you👇right below. 2⃣For a visit to Wuzhen, Xizha is highly recommended for its large area, beautiful scenery, and self-operated shops without excluding tourists from other places. It's also great for photography📸; Dongzha is good for buying local products; South and North Zha are basically undeveloped, so don't go to the wrong place🙅. 3⃣Make sure your navigation is set to "Wuzhen Xizha No. 1 Visitor Center"🚩. Rickshaws and guesthouses at the entrance of the scenic area are mostly unreliable, leading you to designated shops for consumption, ignore them🙅! The visitor center is also the entrance to the scenic area, remember to keep your eyes peeled before entering👀. 4⃣There are many Hanfu and cheongsam shops at the entrance of the scenic area🎀. If you want to take photos, do your makeup before entering the scenic area, as the clothing stores inside charge 2-3 times more~ Choose thick Hanfu with velvet👘. 5⃣When choosing accommodation, be sure to consider the distance from the visitor center🚶. Many so-called "scenic area guesthouses" are actually far from the main gate🚫, and you may have to go around to get there. Ask the owner directly how far it is from the Xizha visitor center! 6⃣There are tour buses in the scenic area, take a ride when tired, 10 yuan per trip🚎. Ask the driver to drop you off at less crowded attractions for a better off-peak experience🤩~ 7⃣If staying in the scenic area, remember to go to the "Water Market" for morning tea🍵, which ends at 9 am, and all seats are available. Go early to get a good indoor window seat with a beautiful view🤳. After 9 am when the scenic area opens, it gets crowded, which can affect the visiting experience😣. 8⃣The south bank of the Xizha canal is also great to explore, don't just crowd on the north bank👯~ The south bank's Nü Hong Street to General Wu area has a wide view and is more suitable for photography📷. 🗺Tour route: Wuzhen Theatre➡Mu Xin Art Museum (closed on Mondays)➡Caomu Natural Dyeing Workshop➡Shuishi Kou Market➡Jia Zuo Bookstore➡Ding Sheng Bridge➡Zhao Ming Academy➡Wuzhen Post Office➡Guo Yue Theatre➡General Wu Temple➡Water Theatre➡Qiao Li Qiao➡Bai Lian Pagoda➡Yue Lao Temple➡Dragon Dance Flower Field. Did you get this guide😁? Bring your family and friends to Wuzhen and experience the charm of the Jiangnan water towns~

I remember when I was in college, one of the presentations was about Wuzhen. I chose it after much consideration, because of its culture, environment, and attractions.

Wuzhen, located in Tongxiang City, Jiaxing, Zhejiang, is divided into Dongzha, Xizha, Nanzha, and Beizha by the cross-shaped inland river system. With a civilization history of over 7000 years and a town-building history of 1300 years, it perfectly preserves the appearance and pattern of the ancient water town in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, known as the 'land of fish and rice, and the mansion of silk'. The southern water town is gentle and moving, and Wuzhen is definitely the best among them. With white walls and grey tiles, bluestone roads, half of the town is mundane, and the other half is poetic. Mu Xin described Wuzhen in this haiku: Jiangnan is green/ the stone steps are also green/ it always seems like it just rained. The exquisite sunlight that has not been seen for a long time falls on the green brick ground through the fine wood carving lattices... Take advantage of the good times, always go to Jiangnan, always go to Wuzhen. Take a rowing boat through the water town, stroll in the small alleys with green tiles and white walls, and feel the charm of the ancient town for thousands of years.

Wuzhen is really worth a visit, the scenery and landscape are very good, but you must be well prepared and strategize, otherwise 90% of the time it will affect the mood of play! After returning from Wuzhen, I will sort out the essential knowledge points of Wuzhen travel for everyone. When playing in Wuzhen, you must visit Wuzhen Xizha, Xizha is the main scenic spot, the scenery is good and it is a must-visit spot. Dongzha is small and has many shops, which is more suitable for buying special products, and you can take a look at it by the way. There are many people at the entrance of the scenic spot pretending to be scenic spot staff telling you "Go to the old street during the day, and come to Xizha at night", it is purely a scam, Xizha is enough to play all day. The old street they mentioned is a small area from Nanzha to Dongzha. It's just to scam you to consume and buy special products, buy clothes, and get a commission. Don't take the rickshaw at the entrance of the scenic spot. The starting price of a ride-hailing car can charge you twenty to thirty. All are pits Don't believe in the Wumei sold in Dongzha Scenic Area, the dyed grapes are super expensive, the scenic spot has put up a sign saying not to buy, and many people are still being fooled. Eat and discolor the tongue You must take a boat in Xizha, the scenery on the boat is completely different, the swaying small boat has a lot of Jiangnan charm. You have to queue up to take a boat at night, more than twenty people queued for more than forty minutes, there will be fewer people queuing in the morning. There is mosquito repellent on the boat, you can spray it when you take a boat Wuzhen is in Jiaxing Tongxiang, the high-speed rail to Tongxiang Station is the closest, don't buy the wrong ticket. You can stay in Wuzhen Scenic Area, there are two types of scenic area homestays and scenic area hotels, both are watched by the scenic area. Living inside can freely enter and exit the scenic area, and you can also play in the scenic area when there are no people, the experience is very good. There are accommodation packages for 600 per person including tickets and boat tickets There is a rest room in the scenic area toilet, with air conditioning, direct drinking water, chairs, power banks, and even free showers, where you can rest and cool off. If you don't know how to visit Xizha, just walk west along the main street, the main scenery is on the main street. All kinds of snacks are also on the street, recommend Dingsheng Cake, Dongpo Zongzi, Wu Mama Wonton, Wumi Rice. The natural dyeing workshop is suitable for taking pictures, it is very out of the picture on sunny days, the blue dyed cloth area is the place where the most people take pictures

Wuzhen West Zone, stealing half a day of idle life, today I am my free self. Walking in the alleys of Wuzhen West Zone, the sun shines through the ancient buildings, casting a golden glow. Stone paths, white walls and black tiles, antique shops, everything seems so quiet and quaint. I am immersed in this leisurely atmosphere, feeling the passage of time. Along the alley, I came to a quiet lakeside. The lake is rippling, and the breeze brings a hint of coolness. I sat on the bench by the lake, quietly admiring this beautiful scenery. The lake and mountains are reflected in the ancient buildings, as if I am in a beautiful painting. In the afternoon, I walked into a traditional teahouse and tasted the local tea. The teahouse is filled with a faint tea fragrance, and I seem to forget the hustle and bustle of the world while listening to the melodious guzheng music. Here, I feel the plainness and beauty of life. Stealing half a day of idle life, I found my own world in Wuzhen West Zone. Here, I feel free and peaceful, savoring the beauty of life. This is me, a free self, a me who likes to immerse in the antique world.

For the ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River, winter is a low season for tourism. First, because the weather is cold, it is not suitable for going out, and there is no heating in the room. Secondly, the scenery in winter is also worse, but if you happen to be in the old town of Jiangnan when it is snowing, it is different. Wuzhen in the winter is somewhat deserted, and the snow falls on the roof of the Linshui wooden house in the Jiangnan water town, accumulating a thick layer, like the northeast snow town. The West Gate of Wuzhen is famous for its night view. There are fewer tourists in winter, and the boats on the river are also neatly docked. There has already been a layer of snow on the roof, which has not been cleaned and more artistic. Tickets for Wuzhen are not cheap. Tickets for a scenic spot in Xizha are 150 yuan, which can only be valid on the same day. It is the most expensive in the ancient town of Jiangnan.

Unexpectedly, I traveled from Hangzhou to Wuzhen. The convenient transportation made it easy to reach. The park is delightful to explore, combining culture, history, and stunning scenery. The only downside was the scorching weather. Despite the large size of the park and the number of visitors, it never felt crowded. It is recommended to visit during a breezy and leisurely autumn day for a more enjoyable experience and rewarding trip. After 5:00 PM, tour groups start to flood in, so it’s best to avoid that time. Wuzhen is equally beautiful during the day.

Having traveled with children for years, I still love this water town the most. This summer, I returned to Wuzhen for vacation with my 11-year-old and 7-month-old. For convenience, we stayed at the newly opened Di Shang Resort Hotel within the West Scenic Zone, fully immersing ourselves in its charming slow-paced life. Wuzhen's West Scenic Zone represents the essence of Wuzhen, more refined and tranquil than the East Zone, featuring classic Jiangnan water town scenery with small bridges and flowing water. Di Shang Resort Hotel is Wuzhen's new high-end art resort, located within the West Scenic Zone. With a "boat trail" design theme, its three interconnected buildings resemble ships docked in a harbor, offering views of both the canal and ancient town. The rooftop infinity pool provides stunning vistas, including breathtaking night views of the White Lotus Pagoda. The kids bought a whimsical lobster lantern that became the talk of the town - so many people wanted photos with it! We sampled countless local snacks: victory cakes, black rice treats, radish cakes, scallion wraps, and the children especially loved the yogurt. Nighttime in West Scenic Zone is magical with lights reflecting on the water. The boat tour at dusk is highly recommended - the combination of flickering lights and oar sounds creates an unforgettable Jiangnan water town atmosphere. Don't miss the unique Morning Tea experience at the Water Market (7-9:30am). Our resort breakfast credit could be exchanged here, offering an array of delights: steaming soup dumplings, pan-fried buns, fried dough sticks, pastries, wontons, fried ice cream, and eel noodles. A short electric cart ride takes you to Wuzhen Village - an excellent family resort with indoor play areas (perfect for hot days) featuring activities like egg collecting, lobster fishing, treehouse climbing, and mini train rides. The craft center offers bracelet-making, tie-dye, painted fans, and more - our kids were entertained for hours. Wuzhen truly never disappoints as a family-friendly destination.

As one of China's first ten famous historical and cultural towns, Wuzhen is divided into four sections by a cross-shaped inland river system, known as "Eastern, Southern, Western, and Northern" respectively. Numerous Ming and Qing dynasty buildings remain, and amidst the vibrant summer air, the town embodies the poetic and leisurely charm of an ancient Jiangnan town. Due to time constraints, we only explored West Zha. A boat ride is a must, not an option. Gently rowing and paddling, we immerse ourselves in picturesque Jiangnan. It's a true journey back in time, a journey back in time, and listening to the cicadas' chirping is a truly soothing experience. I snapped a few random photos, and I feel the artistic quality is already quite high. #Wuzhen

#chinatravel 🧶 Traditional Crafts and Local Industry Wuzhen is also known for its preserved traditional industries, many of which are still practiced today: Indigo cloth dyeing with hand-made patterns Wood carving and weaving Distilling rice wine, which you can sample in local shops Watching artisans work in the same way their ancestors did centuries ago is a rare and educational experience. #wuzhen #china
