[Departing from Shanghai] Wuzhen Village + Wuzhen West Gate Scenic Area + Nanxun Ancient Town [Flexible Itinerary]

▲ Wuzhen Xizha Scenic Area is the essence of Wuzhen. Although it shares equal importance with Wuzhen East Gate Scenic Area as a major attraction, it lacks the bustling market atmosphere of its eastern counterpart. Everything here has been meticulously renovated and redesigned, with cafes and bars lining the streets and alleys, exuding artistic charm. A highly recommended experience is taking a night cruise on a traditional rowing boat, where the Jiangnan water town becomes exceptionally enchanting under the glow of lanterns and the sound of oars.

▲ Wucun Village, located next to the Wuzhen West Gate Scenic Area, is a historic ancient village adjacent to the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. It still preserves the ruins of a canal lock and two characteristic harbors of the Grand Canal—Wangjin Bay (situated at the entrance from Wangjinli to Wucun) and Wucun Bay (located near the Wangfan Bridge in Wucun).

▲ Nanxun Ancient Town boasts a long history with rivers flowing through it. Historically home to many wealthy residents, the town features elegant estates built by affluent families. Influenced by Western styles that once flourished here, Nanxun Ancient Town uniquely blends Chinese and Western architectural elements, exuding an air of nobility and grace.
