    Xitang Ancient Town, Jiaxing, Zhejiang, and Wuzhen, is the head of the ancient town of China. There are antique buildings and many ancient houses of literati and ink guests. Whenever, tourists are always like juice, but the commercial atmosphere is relatively strong, bar street, stinky tofu stalls, It is difficult to calm down to appreciate the beauty of the ancient town. Only in the early morning, everyone has not yet got up and hurry up to see. Xitang tickets are really not cheap.

    The ancient town of Yiyuan was once a "Jiahe giant town" of "sunrise thousands of silk". There are many historical relics such as Yue's Sanjin Shidi, Xiangyunguan, Fushan Temple, Yi Chamber of Commerce Hall, and Humudi, carrying a rich historical and cultural connotation. The seven vein tributaries in the ancient town merge into "H" shaped water network, nine ancient Song and Yuan bridges like jade ribbons, pink walls and tiles and blue waves of weeping willows, forming a live color and fragrance of Jiangnan water town picture. In addition, there is a 3,800 square meter Yufang Zen Garden, with dry landscapes, Zen theaters, Zen teahouses and other elements, full of Zen. The ancient town is very large. It is recommended to arrange a night in the ancient town. The night view is also invincible. Yufang Temple, Xiangyunguan, Fushan Temple, Beigenlou must visit. The ancient town of Yiyuan is very suitable for shooting Hanfu. It is an ancient town suitable for playing all year round. If the ancient town is improved in terms of food, the experience will be better.

    Having long heard of the renowned "City of Tide Music," I made a special trip to witness the Qiantang River tidal bore. While some areas of the park are still under construction, the continuous music was a delightful surprise, and the occasional live performances added a vibrant atmosphere to the sightseeing experience. The only drawback was that, being primarily a scenic area, there weren't many engaging activities for children, making it slightly boring. I'm confident that once construction is complete, many more exciting experiences will be unlocked, and I look forward to returning next time, hoping it will be a place where both adults and children can be completely captivated.

    When boarding the cruise ship, the water vapor of the flowers overflowed through the porthole window, dyeing the island in the heart of the lake into ink. In front of the Misty Rain Building, the red ship in 1921 was quietly moored, and the paint was darker than expected. The red color has settled into a historical birthmark. The most shocking is the holographic image of the memorial: when the shadows of the thirteen representatives emerge from the sparkle, the cruise ship suddenly shakes slightly with the picture, as if really crossing into that midsummer morning. When turning around, I found that the modern teenager outside the window was shooting Douyin against the same red ship model, and the background music was a mixed version of "Juvenile".

    I've never seen such a desolate 4A-level tourist attraction, practically deserted, but the visitor center is incredibly well-built. It's a good place to experience the desolate beauty of dilapidated old houses covered in creepers. Photography enthusiasts can also create some great photos. It's a shame you can't enter the old houses, otherwise, horror games like ancient escape rooms wouldn't need set designs, and it would be really atmospheric.
