Actually, I had some knowledge about Xitang before I came here. Because of my love for ancient towns, I wanted to visit all the top ten ancient towns, and the voice of Xitang was relatively high. I just passed through Xitang for work reasons before, but it was a pity that I didn't go in for a walk, so I came to Xitang specially this time to see the scenery I missed before. What I mainly introduce to you today is not the scenery, but how to play more comfortably in Xitang ...... About accommodation
The area of Xitang scenic spot is small, and you can visit it all in half a day to one day, and the scenic spots are mostly concentrated along the three main rivers in the ancient town. Guzhen West Street, Tawan Street, Yanyu Promenade, Shaoxiang Port South and North Shore and Bar Street all have good inns for travelers to stay in.

Jiangnan Water Rhyme:
If you love Jiangnan Water Rhyme, the B&B Inn along the middle section of West Street will be the first choice. In addition to the ancient houses, water colors and exclusive viewing terraces, the scenery of the misty and rainy promenade is also panoramic.
The waterfront room along the misty rain promenade on the other side is several meters away from the river pond, which is not satisfactory compared with the waterscape of West Street. However, the excellent location adjacent to the misty rain promenade makes the inn here favored by many donkey friends. In addition, along the city river, Yongning Bridge comes to Fengqiao, and there is also a good waterfront inn ~
Walking through the streets:
Xitang has three characteristics: more bridges, more lanes and more corridors. The faint Gu Xiang, though not as delicate and moving as the pond water color, has a winding and secluded artistic conception. Want to walk the streets? Then you must live in West Street, north of Huanxiu Bridge and around Xiyuan. The B&B here is a truly century-old house, especially for its quiet environment and long history.
About the price:
Ordinary inns: 131~211 yuan (not near the river) and 211~351 yuan (near the river);
Star inns: 351~451 yuan (not near the river) and 511~651 yuan (near the river).
Generally, the price of large holidays will double, and the price is cheap from Monday to Friday, and the lowest price is 1.21 yuan per night; In the peak season of April-October, the inn is in short supply, so it is recommended to make a reservation in advance. Go on weekdays at other times, and find a room at night. Some inns can also bargain.
B&Bs also have stars. Not only hotels have stars, B&Bs can also carry "stars". Xitang B&Bs Association has formulated the star rating standards for B&Bs in the town based on safety, service and hardware.

Avenue to Jane. Under the guise of Su Dongpo's "Mo Jun Tang Ji", every corner of this inn fully conforms to classical aesthetics and minimalism.

Prajnaparamita Zen Culture Theme Club
Located in the southeast of Shengtang, this inn on the bank of Hong Kong is probably the most Zen inn in Xitang. The homestay consisting of two courtyards and two ancient houses is full of cigarettes, which is in sharp contrast with the noise outside the wall. Here, a touch of morning glow and the trickling river outside the window are fascinating. The room named after Prajna's five realms, from style to decorations, makes people walk into Brahma's fairyland in a second.

3, Zen tea blindly, it is worth making a pot of good tea in the yard. About food
1, Xitang Guanlaotai stinky tofu, this is the most famous snack in Xitang. The most authentic Guanlaotai shop is on Shiban Road, which is said to be run by Guanlaotai's son, but unfortunately, Shiban Road belongs to the scenic spot, so it is necessary to go out of the scenic spot to buy authentic Guanlaotai stinky tofu, so let's do it ourselves, and the price is the same. 5 yuan is a box, a box of six yuan.
2. Gordon Euryale Seed Cake, an old local product of Xitang, and Gordon Euryale Seed Cake and Caoji Cake are located in Tangdong Street. The price is usually 11 yuan a box.
3. The most famous wonton in Xitang is Lu's wonton. However, when I went to Xitang this time, I found that the wine-brewed dumplings in Lu's wonton shop were delicious. You can try a bowl in 5 yuan.
4. Xitang tofu flower is one of the famous snacks in Xitang. On the edge of Yongning Bridge, there is a stall with rich bean curd flowers. The taste is OK, but the price has also increased. Now it is 5 yuan a bowl.
5. Steamed pork with rice flour is cheap and affordable
6. Zharou actually tastes similar to braised pork, only a little more salty. It's okay to eat casually. 3 yuan a piece.
7. Smoked green beans, which are very delicious and fragrant. I'm going to buy more to take home, haha. There are two kinds of packages, one is 8 yuan and the other is 11 yuan. Every store seems to taste the same, because it is very idle. Try it one by one.
8. Malt cake collapses. It seems that the local people in Xitang have the traditional custom of eating cake collapses in long summer.
9. It's the best in the world, and it tastes just so-so. And the price is a bit expensive.
11. Maltose, I don't like sugar. Some students who like sweets can taste it for themselves. The price is also cheap, a bunch of 3 yuan.
Tips
1. Tickets bought after 2 pm can also be used the next morning, but they must be registered and stamped at the ticket office. If you live in the scenic spot, it will also be after 2 pm, otherwise the small scenic spot will be invalid the next day.
2. If you book tickets online, it is the time to pick them up. The method is the same as 1.
3. You have to check in to buy the small scenic spots in the tickets. If you don't go into a small scenic spot and live in a scenic spot, don't buy a ticket. The boss can just bring it in.
4. In fact, it is enough to play for 1 days in the off-season in winter. I want to see the night view, stay for one night and leave the next morning.
