Jubinlou restaurant

Born in the south of the Yangtze River, she has complex feelings for the ancient town in the south of the Yangtze River since she was a child. Those settled past events gave her all joys and sorrows, just like a sigh covered by years, leaving a unique taste.

Green slate, key bridge, awning, arcade ...

If there is any preference in the ancient town of Jiangnan, Zhouzhuang is one.

There is a life called Zhouzhuang. What kind of experience is this? I want to say that Zhouzhuang has more than one life. With one foot on the accelerator, I came to Zhouzhuang and started a three-day and two-night slow life journey.

It is said that the morning and night in Zhouzhuang satisfy everyone who dreams. Don't be lazy, get up early in the morning to welcome the spring in Zhouzhuang. Only in the morning can you see the real Zhouzhuang clearly.

I can't wait to open the door and walk up the bluestone path by the river. The whole Zhouzhuang was shrouded in the mist of morning light, as quiet as a bride who had just unveiled her veil, and as tender as water after washing lead. Shuangqiao is also shown. The bridge is high, low, wide and narrow. Beautiful bridge arch, plus beautiful images in the water,

There are few pedestrians, and the life of the villagers has just begun. In the light blue to pink sky, some women with flower towels are washing rice and vegetables on the stone pier. Then, the century-old house by the river began to emit smoke, which smelled of plant ash.

Slowly, squeaking and rowing, they gathered by the narrow river. On the Millennium-scarred bluestone road, fisherman women wearing blue and white headscarves began to come and go.

I chose a small shop by the river to have breakfast. Wonton for one night, a cage of crab yellow steamed buns and sweet-scented osmanthus meatball soup with wine are all special breakfasts in the south of the Yangtze River, which can soothe my stomach. You can have a panoramic view of the food.

Walk at will, don't feel crowded, and feel the peace in the morning. The beauty of Zhouzhuang lies in the morning, in the dream in the morning, and in one's own life.

"I looked for him in the crowd for thousands of Baidu, and suddenly I looked back, but the man was in the dim light." What I am looking for is the bright lights in Zhouzhuang.

Walking near the water, the night is breathtaking. Feel free to sit in the position of a tea drinker by the water, while enjoying green tea and enjoying Zhouzhuang in the night. When sitting, you can see the red lanterns in the opposite restaurant and teahouse.

This is a dreamy water town in the night, and it really won't lose the title of "the first water town in China". Deep streets with winding paths, wooden buildings with blue bricks and tiles, and shops along the street from door to door are bustling everywhere.

The lights along the street and the colors of the lights in the house add gorgeous colors to the night. In the colorful lights, the night in the water town is full of infinite vitality, and Shuangqiao area is a good place to see the night scene.

The night is really beautiful. There must be a lighting master who designed such a touching evening makeup for Zhouzhuang. If you are careful, you may find that even the lanterns on the roadside can't be found at such a beautiful night scene. Looking at the red lanterns in the town, my heart gradually calmed down, faded away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and realized the comfort of slow life.

At night, the rain lane and the flower lane are all powder and makeup. From the ancient town of Fuhongqiao to Zhenfeng Bridge, a light show area with the theme of Flower Lane and Rain Lane will be built. Walk through it, taste the cultural atmosphere of water town life, light and shadow, installation and interactive new media fusion, and light up Zhouzhuang.

Take advantage of the night, sit by the window of the river and taste the authentic 3,000 family banquets of Shenting Restaurant.

Zhouzhuang, bred by a thousand years of history and culture, is located in the hinterland of Jiangnan water town, between Shanghai, Hangzhou and Suzhou. The town is Zeguo, surrounded by water and close to each other. It must be a boat. It is famous at home and abroad for maintaining a typical water town in the south of the Yangtze River.

When it comes to ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River, we naturally think of bridges. Zhouzhuang is prosperous because of water, and it is endless because of water. Water is the life of Zhouzhuang, bridge is the soul of Zhouzhuang, and it is also the pride of fame.

Zhouzhuang has Shuangqiao, Fuan Bridge, Tongxiu Bridge, Sports Bridge, Baoen Bridge, Taiping Bridge, Quangong Bridge and Fuhong Bridge.

Shuangqiao should be said to be the landmark building of Zhouzhuang. Shuangqiao, commonly known as Keybridge, can't go to Zhouzhuang without going.

1In the spring of 984, Chen Yifei, a famous Shanghai painter living in the United States, created an oil painting "Memories of My Hometown" with Shuangqiao as the background. The quaint Shuangqiao, under the brush of Chen Yifei, is full of charm. Zhouzhuang is lazy, quiet and peaceful, and it is fixed with pictures.

If you want to know more about a place, you must go to a museum. Zhouzhuang Museum is not far from the entrance of the scenic spot. I suggest you have a look. Although it looks less gorgeous than other museums, you can feel the culture of Zhouzhuang here.

Speaking of Zhouzhuang's humanistic story, everyone will think of Shen Wansan, a once-popular and legendary rich man.

In the mid-Yuan Dynasty, Shen You, the legendary father of Shen Wansan, a rich man in the south of the Yangtze River, moved from Nanxun, Huzhou to Dongzhai Village, east of Zhouzhuang. As a result of his business, Zhenfengli became prosperous, and an old market town centered on Fuan Bridge was formed on both sides of the rivers in the north and south cities.

In the mid-Yuan Dynasty, Shen You, the legendary father of Shen Wansan, a rich man in the south of the Yangtze River, moved from Nanxun, Huzhou to Dongzhai Village, east of Zhouzhuang. As a result of his business, Zhenfengli became prosperous, and an old market town centered on Fuan Bridge was formed on both sides of the rivers in the north and south cities.

Shenting was built by Shen Benren, a descendant of Shen Wansan, a rich man in the south of the Yangtze River in the Ming Dynasty. It was built in the seventh year of Qing Qianlong (1742), formerly known as "Ye Jingtang" and renamed "Songmaotang" in the late Qing Dynasty. Shen Wansan, whose real name is Shen Fu, whose name is Zhong Rong, commonly known as Wan San, was a businessman in the late Yuan and early Ming Dynasties. He accumulated wealth through overseas trade and became the richest man in Jiangnan.

According to legend, Zhu Yuanzhang, the great ancestor of Ming Dynasty, visited Shenyang, and Shen Wansan entertained the emperor with pig's trotters. Zhu Yuanzhang deliberately embarrassed Shen Wansan and asked what this dish was. Shen Wansan knew that if he told the truth and said it was pig's trotters, he would be guilty of Zhu Yuanzhang's taboo. Shen Wansan used his quick wits to clap his thigh, saying that it was Wansan's hoof, and he was relieved, so he named it "Wansan's hoof".

The charm of Zhouzhuang lies in its cultural implication. Zhang Ting, Milu, Ye Chuchen's former residence, Procedural Taoist Temple and Quanfu Temple have high historical, cultural and ornamental values.

Zhang Ting is one of the few remaining Ming Dynasty buildings in Zhouzhuang Town, formerly known as Yishuntang. It is said that it was built by Xu Kui, the descendant of Xu Da, the younger brother of Zhongshan King in the Ming Dynasty. In the early Qing dynasty, it was sold to the Zhang family and renamed Yuyantang, commonly known as Yuyantang.

It won't take half a day to see many people visiting Zhouzhuang. I don't think this is enough. Stop and go in Zhouzhuang, eat and have a look, and feel another slow life in Zhouzhuang. Sitting by the river, drinking grandma's tea, listening to the boatman singing a unique water town tune, or the original Kunqu opera, has a unique flavor.

Strolling through Zhenfeng Street in Zhouzhuang, you can meet antique teahouses from time to time. Ancient crafts and diffuse tea fragrance make the whole street full of the long history of Jiangnan.

Recommended 1: Jubinlou Tea Room

Highlight: The teahouse built by the river has a special platform for pingtan performance, where you can enjoy authentic pingtan performance while drinking tea.

Time: 9:30- 15:30 (irregular singing)

Venue: Jubinlou Tea Room (No.0/07, Zhong Shi Street)

Performances: Daiyu buried flowers, Xin Mulan Ci, Jiangnan Hao, Taihu Beauty, playing the piano with Chinese cabbage, Mei Zhu, Yingying, Meng Beauty, Four Seasons Songs, Du Shiniang, etc.

Pingtan has a long history and was quite popular during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. Jubin Building has a special platform for pingtan performance, with two chairs and a case of three-stringed pipa, and pingtan performance by handsome men and beautiful women, which has brought Jubin Building to an artistic height.

The cost of tea and pingtan is a single point. A pot of granny tea, several dishes of refreshments, friends and relatives, sitting around a table, chatting and listening to pingtan. Classic tracks such as Good Jiangnan, Daiyu Burying Flowers, Beauty of Taihu Lake and Du Shiniang are all very pleasant to listen to.

Recommendation 2: Sanmao Tea House

Highlight: Sanmao had tea here. Don't miss San Mao fans.

1989, Sanmao came to Zhouzhuang and described her throbbing mood when she first met Zhouzhuang with the word "unforgettable". She is drinking tea here, chatting happily with the old gentleman and taking a group photo as a souvenir. After Sanmao died, the old couple were very sad and renamed Sanmao Teahouse to commemorate Sanmao. Sanmao seems to have really not gone far. There is a sentence written by her on the stairs: "A cup of green tea, a heart to welcome dust, go and have tea." How well you say it, not only tells the inside story of tea, but also shows a trace of Zen.

Recommendation 3: furnace rhyme agarwood

Highlight: Experience in making sachets/incense.

Studying fragrant tea art and feeling the mystery of traditional culture is a brand-new experience brought by furnace rhyme agarwood. Sit quietly in the furnace to rhyme agarwood, burn incense and taste tea, and experience the mystery of tea ceremony and incense.

Ancient crafts and diffuse tea fragrance make the whole street full of the long history of Jiangnan.

Recommendation 4: Maokong

Highlight: Internet celebrities and young artists must punch in.

Maokong can be said to be a must-see place for petty bourgeoisie. Because it is located in the scenic spot, it still gives people an isolated scene and takes the children. Perfect for rest. It's nice to have such a warm bookstore in the noisy market.

Here, I wrote a letter to the future for the first time. I like this environment, reading, thinking, staring blankly, even if I stay for a day, I won't feel bored.

Miss Shen's Hanfu shop has changed clothes, and Miss Shen also helps to make headdress styling. It should be the dream of many girls to turn into ancient costumes. Dressed in a costume, traveling through the dreamland and wandering in the ancient buildings of the Ming and Qing dynasties, it feels like crossing once.

There are too many places in Zhouzhuang to shoot ancient costumes. In addition to those small bridges and misty rain lanes, Zhangting is also a good choice. You can also take a paddle boat and experience the feeling that ancient people came to Zhouzhuang by water.

Carton King is an online celebrity in Zhouzhuang, located at Quanfu Road 19 in the ancient town. It sells some paper products, from toys to restaurant utensils, from clothes to bags and hats, from lighting to building models. In fact, more accurately, this is a kingdom of paper products and a creative park.

This lovely cardboard box doll and MengMeng's cat are "waving" to everyone, bringing people into a fairy-tale world and involuntarily stepping into it to explore the mystery of this side.

Every story hall seems to be a whimsical and creative world. All kinds of paper products are exquisite and deeply loved by everyone. In addition to minimalist style, there is also a strong concept of environmental protection. These items can be recycled.

In the outdoor park, you can see landmark attractions all over the world, such as the Eiffel Tower in Paris, the Leaning Tower of Pisa and the Sailing Hotel Building. It is also displayed here in the form of paper carvings. Sitting in a small cardboard box train in the yard can travel around the world.

At lunch, I enjoyed the special paper hot pot of Carton King. The tableware and chairs in the shop are all made of corrugated paper.

Carton King has an inn: Latte Playing Stone Art Inn, and the location of Creative Park is very good. Not far from the entrance of the ancient town, it is convenient for tourists to enter, and there is no need to take a long bumpy gravel road with their luggage.

If Zhouzhuang is the starting point of China's water town dream, Qizhuang, a fragrant village 7 kilometers away from the ancient town, is the hometown of water town treasured by Zhouzhuang. When I arrived here, I deeply felt that Suzhou people are really rich, and even the countryside is so foreign.

Green wheat fields surround the village, trees are shaded, flowers escape from the walls, houses with white walls and tiles are reflected in the river, and green creepers glow faintly in the sun.

Walking into the seven villages of Xiangcun, the scenery you see everywhere is like a quietly unfolding poetic picture scroll.

Growing up in the breeze, hiding in the homes of ordinary people, chickens crowing and dogs barking, fish-flavored rice and rice. ...

Punch point 1: Xiangcun Flower Sea, Flower Field Picnic.

Seven villages in Xiangcun became a punching place for romantic flowers. Such a ceremonial flower field picnic will not live up to the "fragrant village" hidden outside Zhouzhuang, a water town. It's another life in Zhouzhuang!

Punch point 2: Xiangcun Bookstore, Xiangcun afternoon tea.

The countryside is really comfortable now! There is a Xiangcun bookstore in this village, and I had an afternoon tea. One wall is full of books, and the other is a large floor-to-ceiling glass window full of sunshine. The bookstore in the village is so exotic that people in third-tier towns envy it.

Punch point 3: Xiangcun tofu shop

Here, fully feel the seclusion of returning to the pastoral home and slow down the time.

Go to the tofu mill to grind beans and witness the birth of a piece of tofu. Removing bean dregs, filtering, compacting ... Every step of your heart will enrich your heart.

Punch point 4: New Year Show B&B

Xiangcun is another kind of life in Zhouzhuang, living in Nianxiu B&B and feeling different old times from 1960s to 00s.

We live in a two-story homestay with three bedrooms and one living room, which is very suitable for several families to take care of their children and cover the whole building.

The hotel implements unified management of hotel style, and you can also order food directly at the hotel.

The scenery in Jiangnan is very beautiful, and the picturesque scenery has long been familiar. When spring comes, the sun rises from the river, the flowers on the river are brighter than red, and the green river is greener than the blue grass. How can we make people not miss Jiangnan?

This spring, it is better to go to Zhouzhuang to find the Jiangnan water town in our dream.
