Personally, I think Wuzhen and Xitang are more commercialized, while Xitang has the feel of a quaint town.
If you go to Xitang, you don’t need to go to Wuzhen.
Take a bus from Xuzhou to Jiaxing.
There is a direct bus from Jiaxing to Xitang.
About 7 yuan.
You can also take a bus from Jiaxing to Jiashan.
Then take bus 215 to Xitang.
Xitang does not require tickets on weekends.
You can take a boat there for about 60 people per person.
If the accommodation is not near the river or not in the scenic area (such as Sujialong), the cheapest accommodation is 80-150 yuan.
The ones near the river are more expensive.
Personally, I don’t think Linhe is necessary.
And it will be noisy.
The so-called carved bed.
They were all used by the old people in the family to sleep in.
There is no need to spend this money.
You can go and eat really fresh wontons in the morning.
Or tofu pudding.
Stall kind.
It is said to be ancestral.
It would be boring to eat this kind of thing in a restaurant.
Eating is a feeling.
Then there are many farmhouse restaurants there.
You can find a hotel with a balcony or near the river to experience it.
There is also the dragon's hooves for sending children.
It was delicious.
There are also snacks such as stinky tofu and lotus leaf wrapped meat.
The most popular ones there are probably ancient town-style skirts.
Everywhere.
You can buy one to wear.
It is recommended not to buy something that is too exaggerated.
After all, it would be weird to wear it outside the ancient town.
You can also go to the bar there in the evening.
It's best not to choose a particularly noisy bar.
Choose one to listen to quietly.
Eat a special ice cream or drink a special drink.
Feel the ancient town.
Finally, I wish you a smooth and happy trip.
