Travel guide to Zhujiajiao Ancient Town

Zhujiajiao Ancient Town is located in Qingpu District, Shanghai, adjacent to Dianshan Lake. It is a historic water town. You can come to watch a sunset in the summer evening, and then take a boat ride in the breeze at night to see the bright lights on both sides of the bank. There are many snack shops along the coast, and it is very comfortable to stroll with friends and family. 🚗Transportation: Parking lot 20 yuan/day. Subway: Exit 1 of Line 17, about 20min walk. You can take a boat directly to Fangsheng Bridge at the subway station. ⏰Recommended play time 3~4h. 🎫Tickets: Free, you can make a reservation at 'Le You Zhujiajiao' or scan the code on site. Some attractions charge separately, 20 yuan each, you can buy a joint ticket. Snack shops are open until 8/9 o'clock. ✅Fangsheng Bridge It is the largest five-hole stone bridge in the Jiangnan area. You can stand on the top of the bridge to watch the passing boats. There are many teahouses on both sides for rest. 📷This place has a wide view and is an excellent spot for photography enthusiasts. ✅Yuanjin Zen Temple 20 yuan Another view, close to the pier, you can also watch the sunset of the ancient town here, it's very photogenic. ✅Dongjing Pavilion Bridge There are relatively fewer tourists here, it's quieter, and there are several teahouses and cafes. ✅North Street Similar to a snack street, lacks characteristics, there are many teahouses and restaurants, you can sit by the river window to watch the boats come and go. ✅Kezhi Garden 20 yuan The garden is named 'Kezhi', which means 'don't forget to farm while studying', so there is a book city in the garden, and a rice fragrance village is opened to match the garden name. Worth a visit. 📝Tips: ▪️The ancient town is heavily commercialized, just enjoy the scenery, there are more people on weekends, try to avoid peak travel. You can come over around three or four in the afternoon, watch the sunset and night view. ▪️There are many alleys in the ancient town that can lead to the river, don't miss the unique view. ▪️The ancient town is very close to Dianshan Lake, you can arrange to play together.
