Before the tour, it is recommended that you revisit a few of Lu Xun's famous stories, such as Kong Yi Ji and From the Hundred-Clover Garden to the House of Three Flavors, to compare the depictions of the gentleman's writing with the current state of these places, which will make the tour more informative.

These two places are not open as tourist spots. Changqing Temple on the left, commonly known as Banzhuan, was built in the Tang Dynasty and used to be one of the eight major temples in Shaoxing, but now it is the place where the cultural station of Tashan Street is located.

八字桥. Located in the east of the city, the eastern end of the eight bridges straight street, from the East Bus Station is relatively close. This bridge is famous in Shaoxing, ask for directions to find the bridge is very easy. Bazhiqiao famous, one is due to the age, was built in the Southern Song Dynasty Baoyou four years (1256), although since then there have been repaired, is still the establishment of the Song Dynasty, the second is due to the shape of the unique, is an overpass stone bridge, the bridge's east pier street * cramped, with the south and north of two columns of the footsteps, the bridge's west pier according to the street conditions, the footsteps were set up for the west directly under the south of two columns in the east and west piers of the two columns of the footsteps of the two columns of the following and the two bridge holes. Bridge hole, because there was originally a small river running through here. This kind of modeling and the environment as a whole, very practical, Bazhi Bridge is also because the bridge is shaped like the word "eight" and so named. The streets along the river in the area of Bazhiqiao have the flavor of a water town.
Guangxiang Bridge. This semi-circular stone arch ancient bridge in the north of Shaoxing city by the national highway, in the Yue Wang Bridge (104 national highway north line of a highway bridge) parallel to the north side of about ten meters, if you take the Keqiao direction of the car passes by here, you can pay attention to. This bridge was built in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and is even older than the Eight Bridges. The bridge was named after the Gwangsangsa Temple that once stood beside it. Due to the convenience of the highway bridge, fewer people walk on it now, and the bridge deck is overgrown with weeds, which makes it look ancient in contrast to the busy highway bridge.
Shegong Bridge.

Standing at the Xie Gong Bridge, looking around, can feel the flavor of the old water city of Shaoxing.
4, the ancient Jianhu and Ma Zhen tomb
out of Shaoxing city west of the side door, along the highway westbound less than a kilometer, the left hand side of a concrete bridge called the cross-lake bridge. The bridge is only thirty meters wide, and the waterway it crosses looks like an ordinary river running east to west, but in fact it is a remnant of the ancient Jianhu Lake - hence the name of the bridge. Across the bridge, you can reach the temple of Ma Taishou and the tomb of Ma Zhen. Jianhu Lake and Ma Zhen, like Dujiangyan and Li Bing. If you go to Shaoxing without visiting Jianhu Lake, it is like going to Chengdu without visiting Dujiangyan. Due to the lack of tourism development and promotion, there are usually few tourists here, but it is a very humanistic attraction. There is no admission fee.
Jianhu is an ancient water conservancy project that has graced Shaoxing for hundreds of years, with a history of more than 1800 years. Before the completion of Jianhu, Shaoxing northern Shanhui plain because of the low-lying terrain, in case of flash floods and seawater backflow can not be smoothly drained, everywhere is a swamp. East Han Yonghe five years (140 years), the Huiji governor Ma Zhen presided over the construction of Jianhu Lake embankment, the lake embankment from the city to the east and west wings open, intercepted by the Huiji mountain to the 36 streams, formed an area of about 200 square kilometers of Jianhu, from the Huiji mountain floods can no longer overflow, but is bound in the reservoir. Lake embankment with gates, weirs, bucket doors, in case of abundant water season is diverted into the sea, in case of dry season is released for irrigation, from the Jianhu downstream plains no longer have a big drought and flooding of the fierce years, gradually become a land of fish and rice.
The Jianhu Lake under the bridge across the lake looks like a river, but the remaining part of the ancient Jianhu Lake. In the Song Dynasty, especially the Southern Song Dynasty, because of the Shaoxing area, rich people and farmers began to surround the lake to create land, so that the area of Jianhu greatly reduced.
Walking about 100 meters across the crossroads, you can reach the Temple of the Great Conservator Ma, facing the plaque reads "on the mountain road" - Shaoxing, from the Southern Song Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, there are Shanyin and Huiji counties, the seat of governance are in the city of Shaoxing - this place belongs to the boundaries of the Shanyin County. Ma Taishou Temple is a temple built and maintained by the people in honor of Ma Zhen, the Eastern Han Dynasty governor who built the Jianhu Lake Project. The construction of such a large water conservancy project as the Jianhu Lake was controversial, with the main conflict being that the lake flooded a large portion of the fields south of the lake embankment, jeopardizing some people's existing interests. After the completion of the lake embankment, an anonymous paper delivered to the capital to go, suing the horse guards building Jianhu flooded people's fields and ancestral graves, exaggerating the disadvantages of the project, the emperor under the bias of listening to the horse Zhen escorted to the capital to be sentenced to death by cleavage. The people have a scale in their hearts, the broken body of Ma Taishou will be stolen back to Huiji burial. The court soon came to its senses and vindicated Ma Zhen.
The main hall of Ma Taishou Temple is dedicated to Ma Zhen and his wife and children, accompanied by the hall of Dongyue Da Di, the landlord and other local gods. In the temple, there are three things in particular worth noting. One is the mural on both sides of the main hall, which is hundreds of years old and introduces the story of Ma Zhen in the form of comic strips from his childhood education to the construction of Jianhu to the death of the car cracked. Second, facing the statue of the ancient stage, called "Wannian stage", the shape and carving are more delicate, well-preserved, in festivals, the stage often have local theater performances. Third, out of the temple south door of the west side of the Ma Zhen tomb, tomb Square on the book "Liji Wang tomb", Liji Wang is the name of the Tang Taizong enthroned Ma Zhen. Ma Taishou Temple is now managed by a few villagers in the nearby village on their own initiative.
5, the ancient fiber road and Taiping Bridge
Recommended is to hire a boat from Anchang by the water to see these two landscapes. But hiring a boat is expensive, buses are cheaper, so the land transportation will also be introduced.
From the city of Shaoxing, you can take the No. 5 bus to the terminal station, Ruan City, get off, and then walk west for a few minutes to reach the Taiping Bridge, and the ancient fiber road in the south of the Taiping Bridge in the east and west flanks of the movement. You can also take a shuttle bus in the direction of Qianqing at the North Bus Station and get off at Taiping Bridge. If you take a regular shuttle bus between Hangzhou and Shaoxing (taking the national highway instead of the expressway), it will also pass by here. There is no entrance fee for these two attractions.
If you have limited time, the easiest way to see the Ancient Slender Road is to take a shuttle bus, and you can view the Ancient Slender Road by sitting on the shuttle buses all along the highway for a few kilometers to the east and west of Ruan She.
If you have enough time and interest, you can start from Taiping Bridge to the west along the fiber optic road walking, the ancient fiber optic road can be intermittent until it reaches the Qianqing town near the border of Xiaoshan city. Of course, due to the disrepair of some sections of the road, walking is not easy.
Taiping Bridge, is the north-south across the Xiaoshao Canal a multi-span stone arch bridge. The bridge was built in the second year of the Ming Dynasty (1622), and has been rebuilt many times since then, and is still a passageway for people to walk. From the south bank to the north bank, in turn, a net span of 10 meters of stone arches, as well as gradually lowering the 8-hole stone beam bridge deck, this shape is adapted to the local conditions, and the wide canal, such as the dragon across the river, is a unique ancient bridge. Taiping Bridge, there are pedestrians to this day, the 10-meter net span of the stone arch is also still the canal boat access.
"White jade long embankment road, crow's nest small rowing boat" in the last sentence, said the ancient fiber road. Ancient Slender Road was built in the Tang Dynasty, according to the ancient canal in East Zhejiang Xiaoshao Canal section (also known as the Guantang River), is the south side of the embankment for the Slender Man walking on the road, but also for the ship to avoid the wind function. The ancient fiber road starts from Xiaoshan in the west and reaches Shangyu in the east, with a total length of more than 100 miles. From Ruan She Taiping Bridge to the west to Qianqing between the board bridge, part of the fiber road across the water and built for the unique fiber road bridge, the Qing Dynasty "fiber road bridge tablet records" recorded "from Taiping Bridge to the board bridge, all the ponds as well as the Yubao with the bridge counted two hundred and eighty-one hole." Of course, this two hundred and eighty-one holes is the past situation, many of the bridge holes have been silted up. Broken water and built fiber road bridge, with stone piers to raise the slate flat bridge, both labor-saving materials, but also to facilitate flood relief.
Ancient Slender Road and Taiping Bridge area, known to experts as the open-air Museum of Transportation, in the hundreds of meters wide east-west narrow strip, distributed from north to south of the Zhedong Canal, the ancient Slender Road, 104 National Highway North and the Xiaoyong Railway, the ancient and today's concentration of different types of roads, busy and lonesome, may be able to let you have some insights between.

There are more than three miles of ancient streets along the river, seventeen stone bridges across the river, winding and deep stone alleys as well as a lot of old-fashioned stores and ancient buildings of Taimen.
The original name of Anchang was Ancang, probably because in ancient times the north of the town was a mudflat and a oceanic sea, and it was rumored to have been renamed Anchang in the Tang Dynasty due to the pacification of Dongchang's rebellion. In the Neolithic era, there were ancestors of the Yue ethnic group operating in this area. According to ancient books, Dayu once met the lords and took a wife and settled down at Tu Mountain, east of Anchang, and the poem "Waiting for a man to come home" in the Classic of Poetry, which describes the Tu Mountain clan's hope for Dayu's return home, has made Anchang the birthplace of Chinese love poems. It was during the Ming and Qing Dynasties that Anchang became an important market town. Ming Chenghua year there is a Zheng Wenling advocate for everyone to donate land for the street, to Hongzhi two years (1489), Anchang commercial street will be officially opened. In the early Qing Dynasty, Anchang around the rural areas abound in cotton mulberry, weaving concentrated in Anchang trading (Anchang cotton cloth because of the quality of good known as "Nansha beep" in the ancient town of folklore in the museum is now set up a special showroom), but also led to other daily necessities of the trade in land and water transportation dominated the era, Anchang gradually became the largest market town in Shaoxing, the war has nine hundred people, the war is over. On the eve of the war, Anchang has more than 900 merchants, second only to the city of Shaoxing. Today, the shadow of Anchang's prosperity can still be seen.

Accommodation
When traveling to Anchang Ancient Town, it is best to stay overnight to experience the scenery in the morning and evening, the quietness after the tourists disperse, and the life style of the local residents (this advice also applies to other ancient towns, provided that there is local accommodation capacity). The tour can be arranged roughly one night and half a day.
For lodging in Anchang, the preferred choice is the Anchang Hotel, 5654268, located at the Xishi Market intersection, just a minute or two's walk west of Hongshi Bridge in Zhongshi. Bed prices range from 10 to 15 yuan, and the beds are relatively clean. Rooms on the third floor are the best, with wooden floors, but the owner sometimes doesn't spare them for guests. The hotel itself only has cold showers, and there are public **** bathrooms behind the hotel for $3. The downside is that you can hear the sound of the early morning market at dawn - not really a downside, it's part of the experience of the old town.
In addition, there is the Xinglong Inn, 82 Middle Street, 15 yuan per bed, north of Hongshi Bridge in Zhongshi. There is also the Anchang Hotel, 5655778, in Anchang New Town.

On the south side of the Hongshi Bridge in Zhongshi, there is another restaurant, Yuelai Restaurant, which also has a nice view of the river.
