Suzhou Luzhi, the only leisure person in the six ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River, do you know how to pronounce the word Luzhi?

The six ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River include Zhouzhuang, Tongli, Luzhi, Xitang, Wuzhen and Nanxun. Except Luzhi, the market towns of the other five ancient towns are all in the toll area. Although Xitang, Nanxun, Zhouzhuang and other ancient towns don't check tickets at night, they can't get in without tickets during the day.

Among the six ancient towns, only Luzhi Ancient Town is completely open, and you can freely enter and leave during the day and night. Only when you enter some famous people's former residences or museums do you need to buy a pass.

Luzhi Ancient Town is located in Wuzhong District, Suzhou City, about 18km away from the urban area. It is one of the six ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River and the ancestral home of Xiao Fangfang, a famous movie star, and the prototype of Ye Shengtao's short story "Rambling around" is also here.

Many tourists have the same doubts as me before-how to pronounce the word "Yan"? Pinyin and Wu Bi typing seem difficult.

After checking the information, I found that you can read the word "hmm" and you can draw five strokes of TEK.

This is an uncommon word. When it comes to it, it usually feels straightforward. Not far from the entrance of the ancient town, there is a square with a statue in the middle.

Yao Duan is a mythical beast in China. It is said that you can walk 18,000 miles a day, which is specially used to pass books and protect the emperor.

Luzhi ancient town has a history of 2,500 years, and it retains the traditional features of small bridges and flowing water families in Jiangnan water town.

There are many rivers and shops in the ancient town, and all the streets and buildings are built and developed around the rivers.

According to textual research, the location of Luzhi ancient town was inhabited by ancestors as early as 6000 years ago, and it reached unprecedented prosperity from Ming and Qing Dynasties to the Republic of China.

There are many foreigners doing business outside the ancient town, but the core area is dominated by locals, and many locals are active here every day.

Luzhi ancient town is surrounded by water, and there are many lakes such as Yangcheng Lake and Jinji Lake nearby, where Nanshi River, Dongshi River and Xishi River meet, which provides a convenient basis for the development of commerce and trade.

Rivers divide the ancient town into different blocks, and the buildings with white walls and tiles are in harmony with slate street and small bridges, showing different aesthetic feelings in different seasons and weather conditions.

I don't know how many bridges there are in Luzhi ancient town, but I know that there are countless small bridges I met during my tour.

There are many ships moored at the riverside pier. These docks used to be places where merchants transported goods, but now they are tourist docks.

Rivers, bridges and water lanes constitute a complete architectural system of Luzhi ancient town. East Bridge and Sanyuan Bridge Wan 'an Bridge are representative ancient bridges. The former is located at the easternmost end of the ancient town and is the largest ancient stone bridge in the ancient town. The latter is located in Sanguannongkou, Shangtang, Zhong Shi, and the landscape of "Three Steps and Two Bridges" is particularly special.

Luzhi ancient town didn't carry out much publicity, and its popularity was much worse than Zhouzhuang and Wuzhen, but the relatively quiet atmosphere retained more original flavor. Personally, I prefer this feeling.

When you come to Luzhi Ancient Town, you don't have to look for scenic spots. You can walk along the stone street by the river, enjoy the buildings, bridges and reflections, and find that every angle constitutes a painting.
