Xitang or Wuzhen, which is more fun? Where is the ancient town of Tang Xi?

I don't know when I started, but I always have a special feeling for the ancient town. Friends around me ask me where I want to go, and I will definitely name an ancient town. I always feel that I have been on Qingwa Road. It seems that many of my memories have come alive. I am a nostalgic person. I always like to take out things from a long time ago, recall the scene at that time, and recall what I was like in that scene. So this trip to Xitang is different.

The charm of a thousand-year-old town has entered the ancient town. The veranda is old and the alley is deep, which seems to have entered the long river of history. We are in Pilong Lane, looking for the first romance, or taking a boat to see the shops on West Street and under the misty rain corridor. We started sailing in the middle of the river in the ancient town. The white walls and tiles on both sides of the river bear the breath of China's ink painting, carved beams and painted buildings, and the ancient houses in Shixiang witness it.

Jietou ornaments

Shops built near the river, although small in appearance, can always attract tourists to go further. There are many photo studios in Gu Xiang. After bargaining with the boss, you can rent some clothes with ancient rhyme and take many beautiful photos.

The veranda built on the street is the most attractive. Walking here, while watching the cruise ship on the river, listening to the old people singing, has a special flavor, which is even more enjoyable if you hold snacks in your hand.

Feel the simplicity of Jiangnan water town and appreciate the long wooden boat with clear water, which brings you a kind of tranquility. Let the sunshine flow quietly on the skin and let the poetry surround the heart. At this moment, I no longer have the hustle and bustle of the city. I want to be a Jiangnan woman who picks lotus, smiles in lotus fragrance and dances lightly in Jiangnan ink and wash.

Different scenic spots, late Qing architecture

It has the architectural style of the late Qing Dynasty and has high artistic appreciation and research value. Walking on the ancient stone steps, they walked into a big house by accident. They make the facade like ordinary people, unobtrusive and very low-key. It is said that in order to prevent the Japanese from disturbing, local customs have gradually formed.

Xitangde bridge

Huanxiu Bridge, Lion Bridge, Wolong Bridge, Songzi Laifeng Bridge and so on. Most of the bridges here are small and narrow, sitting quietly on the river. It seems that every step is a silent dialogue with history. From the Wolong Bridge, you can almost see most of the ancient city of Tang Xi, and the river flows quietly under the bridge.

Xitang in the night

In the night, the white walls on both sides of the river are towering, the reflection of the tile house is weak and heavy, and fishing boats with lights in the distance are driving slowly on the river. At this time, the restaurants on the shore are surging, and everyone chooses to sit by the river, watching the moonlight dim, drinking wine and tasting delicious food.
