I want to go on a self-guided tour of Wuzhen, Shanghai in Rizhao. Are there any routes that save money and are there any specific ways to take the bus? Thanks

Wuzhen belongs to Zhejiang, Zhouzhuang belongs to Jiangsu, and West Lake is in Hangzhou. They are different places. Personal suggestion is to arrange the route as follows: first go to Hangzhou West Lake and it will take about a day to go around. There is no admission fee for West Lake. You can stay at a youth hostel by the West Lake at night. Prices range from RMB 30 to RMB 150, and the environment is not bad. You can search and book online.

Take a train to Shanghai the next morning, the price is between 20-30 yuan. Why is it arranged this way? It's because all cars going to Suzhou have to pass through Shanghai. The locations such as the Shanghai Bund City God's Temple and the Oriental Pearl Tower are relatively concentrated, so one day is enough. You don’t have to spend money on the Bund. You can visit the Chenghuang Temple like a market without spending any money. The Oriental Pearl Tower charges 100 yuan for every 100 meters of climbing. The tower is about 258 meters high. Bird's eye view of Shanghai panorama. There is also an undersea tunnel, but I didn’t go to see it. If it is still early, you can take a bus to Suzhou, or you can go to Suzhou on the morning of the third day. There are more than N trains going back and forth between it every day.

To Suzhou, there are many buses to Zhouzhuang and Wuzhen near the train station. The ticket price is about 10 yuan! Wuzhen and Zhouzhuang are not very big and can be completed in half a day. There are many waterside hotels in Wuzhen and Zhouzhuang. They are clean and cheap. You can check online and make a reservation by phone. The kind boss will pick you up at Wuzhen and Zhouzhuang Station. When I went to Tongli, the boss picked us up at the station and treated us to fruits. Most of them were very honest. . The price per night is around 100.

It is recommended that you stay one night in the water town. It was May when I went there, and the mist and rain in the water town in the evening made it feel like a home in the south of the Yangtze River. The air is moist and it feels good to walk among the bridges.
