So far this year, my favorite city has emerged

When I visited Zhejiang, I was amazed by Shaoxing—the little bridges over flowing water, the black tiles and white walls, without the noise of the city or excessive commercialization. Especially on rainy days, Shaoxing is as beautiful as a misty rain painting. I regret only now visiting Shaoxing, this low-key water town in the south of the Yangtze River, which is a must-visit in my heart❗️ 🚶 Shaoxing 3-day 2-night itinerary ▫️day1 Lu Xun's Hometown→Xu Wei Art Museum→Jie Min Library→Sage's Hometown→Fu Mountain Park→West Xiaolu ▫️day2 Lanting→Anchang Ancient Town ▫️day3 Shaoxing Museum→Yangming's Hometown→Pioneer Bookstore→Ancient Canal Path 🎐 Must-visit attractions in Shaoxing Spend two or three days in the hometown of Lu Xun, take a ride on a black-awning boat, and appreciate the ancient literati landmarks, and you will be moved by the beauty of Shaoxing. 1️⃣ Lanting The 'Orchid Pavilion Preface' by Wang Xizhi was born here, with the stunning Goose Pond🪿, Tianzhang Temple, and Qu Shui Liu Shang... A beautiful scene at every step, you won't want to leave. 2️⃣ Lu Xun's Hometown Lu Xun's hometown could guarantee Shaoxing a lifetime of glory and wealth🤣 The Hundred Grass Garden and Sanwei Study are childhood memories. 3️⃣ West Xiaolu Compared to the crowded Cangqiao Straight Street, I recommend the original West Xiaolu, which also has a super beautiful heart-shaped tree🌳 4️⃣ Yangming's Hometown The hometown of Wang Yangming, arguably the most beautiful architecture in Shaoxing, with great Chinese aesthetics. 5️⃣ Anchang Ancient Town One of the four great ancient towns of Shaoxing, the two-kilometer old street is built along the river, and it's very pleasant to walk on the small bridges🌊 6️⃣ Fu Mountain Park A free, less crowded treasure park, it's like a green fairyland, and the Yue Wang Terrace is worth a visit. 7️⃣ Sage's Hometown The hometown of Wang Xizhi and Cai Yuanpei, with the Ink Pool, Bi Fei Nong, and Ti Shan Bridge, has a historical atmosphere. 8️⃣ Xu Wei Art Museum & Green Vine Book House The former residence of the Ming Dynasty painter Xu Wei, where you can view his handed-down paintings and calligraphy. 9️⃣ Shaoxing Museum Few tourists, but the collection is not to be underestimated❗️ Yue kiln celadon, Wu Yue bronze swords, and ice crack bowls are all treasures. 🔟 Jie Min Library 'Jie Min' comes from Mr. Cai Yuanpei's name, and the architecture is beautiful. 1️⃣1️⃣ Pioneer Bookstore·Jianhu Store Pioneer Bookstore's new store in Shaoxing, almost no tourists, overlooking the bookstore is like a whale in Jian Lake. 1️⃣2️⃣ Ancient Canal Path The ancient path in the lake built during the Tang Dynasty, with a total length of more than nine thousand meters, has been preserved for a thousand years. 🏨 Accommodation & Food Recommendations I recommend staying near Lu Xun's Hometown for convenient transportation, with direct access by subway and bus. For food, you must try Shaoxing's drunken crab, yellow wine, stinky tofu, yellow wine milk tea, and Ciwu noodles. During my days in Shaoxing, I really didn't want to leave; this is the true Jiangnan of my dreams.
