Overview
Discover the "Venice of Shanghai" on this immersive 3-hour journey through Zhujiajiao. We’ll leave the skyscrapers behind to explore a world of stone bridges, ancient canals, and the legendary Jiangnan lifestyle.
Route Highlights:
• Historic Gems: We’ll visit Kezhi Garden, cross the iconic Fangsheng Bridge, and step back in time at the Qing Dynasty Post Office.
• The Magic Hour: Starting at 3:30 PM allows us to catch the golden sunlight on the canals and stay for the nighttime magic when lanterns begin to glow over the water.
• Foodie Adventure: We’ll eat our way through North Main Street! Try authentic street food like Zongzi (sticky rice in bamboo leaves) and local soup dumplings from family-run stalls.
• Architectural Beauty: Wander through Xijing Street to see the best-preserved Ming and Qing dynasty architecture in the region.
Quick Tips for Your Visit:
• Comfort first: We’ll cover about 3.5km on cobblestone streets, so wear your best walking shoes.
• Great for everyone: Kids love the canal snacks, while adults fall in love with the serene cultural atmosphere.
Come discover why history tastes better, and life feels slower in the heart of the water town!
