Wuzhen Water Town in Zhejiang Province is a stunning glimpse into traditional Chinese life. The town is renowned for its picturesque canals, ancient stone bridges, and well-preserved wooden houses. One unique attraction is the outdoor soy sauce workshop. Here, you can see traditional methods of soy sauce production and even taste some freshly made. It’s a fascinating insight into local culinary traditions. Another highlight is the Marriage Museum, which offers a deep dive into Chinese wedding customs and traditions. It’s filled with artifacts and exhibits that showcase the evolution of marriage practices over time. For a quick look at historical practices, visit the Chinese Foot Binding Museum. This museum provides an in-depth look at the controversial practice of foot binding, with detailed exhibits and historical context. In addition to these museums, don’t miss the chance to enjoy a scenic canal boat ride, stroll through ancient alleys, and explore the Wuzhen Museum, which highlights the town’s rich history. Wuzhen Water Town was a day tour from Shanghai where I got the perfect blend of history, culture, and beautiful scenery in this summer season. #summerdestinations
