| Stroll Through the No. 1 Water Town in Jiangnan.
[Why is Zhouzhuang worth visiting?]
👉🏻 Open the window at 6am: bluestone slabs + sculling boats + cooking smoke,
A real-time view of a Jiangnan water town
👉🏻 Take a walk through Shen Hall and see the carved bed of the richest man in Jiangnan. It's bigger than your living room.
👉🏻 Wansan Pork Knuckle with Grandma's Tea. It's the authentic way to eat it when your hands are covered in grease.

🏨Accommodation recommendations
▪️Zhouzhuang is basically all B&Bs, with no chain hotels
▪️Outside the ancient town: convenient transportation and relatively new facilities, but pay attention to the time you can enter the scenic spot for free. We stayed at the "Chanyi Li" B&B this time, which is really recommended! The facilities are relatively new, the rooms are large, and the decoration style is really beautiful~
▪️Inside the ancient town: the facilities are generally old, cars cannot directly enter, and some folk customs require you to walk a distance with your luggage. But you can enter after 9:00pm, so you don’t need a ticket.
