The rivers are vertical and horizontal, the blue waves are rippling, and in the morning, the bridges are flowing and the mist is like yarn; In the evening, the setting sun is slanting and the fishing boats are flat, which is a typical portrayal of the water town in the south of the Yangtze River. On some ancient roofs in Xitang, there are tile grass nearly feet high.

This ancient town, built in 503 AD, is known as the "Bridge Capital" in the south of the Yangtze River. The inland river network in the town is staggered, surrounded by clear water and across the bridge.

7. Nanxun Town

Wang Bo, a poet in the early Tang Dynasty, wrote in the Preface to Wang Tengting that the book praised Hongdu with "treasure of things" and "outstanding people". It is also quite appropriate to use this language to summarize the history, geography, economy and culture of Nanxun Town. She is located in the center of Suzhou, Hangzhou and Jia Hu, and has been a "land and water crossroads" since the Southern Song Dynasty. "The wealth of ploughing mulberry is the right in Zhejiang"; The reason is that Xunxi River is named Xunxi. Later, because merchants gathered in the south of Xunxi, it was named Lin Nan. Chunyou years (1252), the town was built. Lin Nan and Xunxi took their initials and changed their names to Nanxun.

From Wanli of Ming Dynasty to the middle of Qing Dynasty, Nanxun's economic prosperity reached its peak. There is a folk saying that "Huzhou is a city, but it is not as good as half a town in the south". The reason why Nande became a male town in Jiangsu and Zhejiang is mainly because of the rise of silk industry and the development of commodity economy. "Mulberry everywhere nearby, every family raises silkworms, and every family spins silk" is a true portrayal at that time.

8. Old Town of Lijiang

It has a long history, simple and picturesque, and looks like a water town and a mountain city. There is water in the city and a city in the mountain. The city and the mountains blend together, and the mountains and rivers are integrated. The road is free, the street is deep, the river is beside the road, and the weeping willows brush the water ...?

Lijiang has many historical and cultural relics. There are seven famous temples in Lijiang River, namely Wenfeng Temple, Guo Fu Temple, Fusang Temple, Yufeng Temple, Zhiyun Temple, Xinghua Temple, Zhao Ling Temple, Beiyue Temple, Baisha Ancient Architecture Complex, Sansheng Palace and Longquan Temple. From this, we can see the combination of Central Plains culture and local national culture and the influence of Tibetan culture. ?

9. Mudu Ancient Town

Located in the west of Suzhou, on the shore of Taihu Lake, it is a famous ancient town in the south of the Yangtze River. With beautiful scenery and rich products, the territory is surrounded by famous Wuzhong mountains such as Tian Ping, Lingyan, Shishan and Qizi, so it is called the "cornucopia".

Zhujiajiao 10

Zhujiajiao was an antique in the past few years, but the economic tide was too turbulent after all. However, in the past few years, Zhujiajiao's face has changed a lot. This small town with a history of more than 500 years is quietly changing among the people coming and going. Originally, the water was beautiful, and the weather of ancient buildings was still intact, but the grand commercial atmosphere masked many colors. The town is close to Shanghai, which gives Zhujiajiao a unique advantage in tourism, but I don't know how many Shanghainese have really been to Zhujiajiao. Unknown, with many tourists, the characteristics of the ancient town are not prominent enough. However, it is not easy to have such an ancient town near the metropolis Shanghai.
