1, the first one is: live.

I have stayed in many exquisite and high-end hotels, whether it is the top luxury Venetian Macao or the simple ancient town inns such as Phoenix and Zhujiajiao. I always think that going out to play and living comfortably is the first priority. Zhenfengxuan is a classical residential building in the south of the Yangtze River, with a zigzag layout, two floors and a room of *** 18. Each room has a special name, which makes me like it very much (price: 688 ordinary rooms on weekends and 588 ordinary rooms on weekdays).

At the same time, Zhouzhuang also has some boutique resort hotels, such as Huajiantang, Fuzheng Caotang, Guiji Zhisi Resort Hotel, Chunjiang Flower Moonlight Guzheng Hall, Zhengutang, Zhouzhuang International Youth Hostel, Clear Water Cloud House, Encountering Jiangnan, etc. You'd better book online before you go, so you may feel at ease!

2, eat: Zhouzhuang on the tip of the tongue

As a traveler, after finding a good place to live in any strange place, eating naturally comes first, and food is the first thing for the people!

At the end of Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of Ming Dynasty, Shen Wansan became the richest man in Jiangnan. He specially invited famous chefs to cook all kinds of delicacies, and was named as "Three Thousand Banquets". His banquet pays attention to the season, the choice of materials is exquisite, and the color, fragrance and shape are all good. The specialties are: Wansantizi, Sanwei Tangyuan, steamed mandarin fish, stewed eel tube, water shield bass soup, river snail with ginger sauce, stuffed meat with oil, and meat wrapped in venetian blinds. In Zhouzhuang, a water town, rare aquatic products can be found all the time. Among them, the most famous are the "three treasures in the river": perch, white clam and whitebait. Zhouzhuang also produces eels, and it is well known that "cooked eels compete for ginseng". In addition, there are soft-shelled turtles, river shrimps and so on.

You can try the "Three Thousand Family Banquets" at Shenting Restaurant, just beside Fuan Bridge and Shenting. So far, it retains the Ming and Qing styles, elegant and chic, and is a local style restaurant. Zhouzhuang is not only delicious, but also the Jiangnan specialties such as pickled amaranth and fried whitebait with eggs, which are deeply loved by tourists.

3. Drinks: water town wine and granny tea.

The tea culture in Zhouzhuang, a thousand-year-old town, has a long history. The custom of drinking tea stretches for several kilometers in Zhouzhuang, Fiona Fang, among which ""is the most famous. Zhouzhuang people have a long history of drinking "apo tea". Today, the blue-and-white porcelain-covered tea bowls, exquisite and delicate teacups, simple and elegant teapots and glazed tea trays collected in the deep house courtyard are enough to prove the long history of "Apo Tea". Speaking of rice wine, when I was a child, my mother always brewed some rice wine every year, and our favorite sweet wine spoiled it. Jiangnan, a small bridge with flowing water, inherits the customs in this way, and seems to have found sweet childhood memories here.

A cup of mellow rice wine, a mouthful of granny tea, sitting under a long curtain and weeping willows, a classical promenade, and a few low tables in the blue courtyard; Drink tea, listen to Kunqu opera, and feel the long-standing cultural heritage of Zhouzhuang, which is clanking and spreading thousands of years of cultural implications. Or holding a cup of coffee, enjoying the running water outside the window, watching the lonely people and feeling their long-lost peace.

4, play: strange buildings

Speaking of strange buildings, I thought it was just a game to scare children, but on the way to the hotel, I didn't care at first. Later, I was attracted by the names of two "strange buildings" in front of this door. As soon as I came in, I realized that the small corners of the arc Catherine's cabin downstairs were decorated with various backgrounds one after another by optical illusion, or tables and chairs were hung upside down under the roof on purpose, or an ancient erotic palace was accidentally created, or elegant stairs were decorated when I turned my head, or the horrible sound of multi-channel headphones was staged on the dark wooden building. The maze is in the glass corridor, the flowers are picked up by huge chopsticks, and the ground is tilted, which makes people dizzy.

There is still history. It was built by a returnee in Zhouzhuang in the early years of the Republic of China. This person probably likes whimsy since he was a child. When he came back from studying modern physics in the west, he turned many bad pranks in his childhood into a century-old game, which not only entertained others, but also helped him make a living. In fact, adults can be so arbitrary and absurd; People in the workplace don't have to expand bungee jumping to relieve fatigue.

The scenic spot is located between Shanghai, Suzhou and Shizhou, 30 kilometers away from Kunshan City, 38 kilometers away from Suzhou City, 60 kilometers away from Shanghai City and 160 kilometers away from Shizhou City. Zhouzhuang can be reached quickly along Shanghai-Nanjing Expressway, Shanghai-Hangzhou Expressway and Sujiahang Expressway. It is about 1 hour from Shanghai Hongqiao Airport, about 90 minutes from Shanghai Pudong International Airport and about 100 minutes from Hangzhou Xiaoshan Airport.
