Wuzhen is still pretty, I think the most beautiful time is early morning, and evening, and from around 9:00 am to noon there are the least people in the scenic spot as it is hot, after all, but it is convenient for you to take pictures as you don’t feel very crowded. The Wuzhen Theatre is also very local. The old people inside are here to listen to the drama every day. Although you maybe can’t understand the Jiangnan dialect, the songs they sing are also very good. The snacks in Wuzhen are not expensive, and the lamb noodles are highly recommended as the Lamb is super delicious! The onion steamed stuffed bun is also very cheap, which is around 2 Yuan. Be sure to go to the theater to listen to the drama, to keep quiet, or you will be criticized, the tea inside costs 5 Yuan/cup.
The night view of West Bank is also very beautiful, and you will usually take a look at the night scene at West Bank. Of course, if you live in the West Bank area, you don’t need it. However, the price of staying for one night in West Bank may be more expensive than the outside. The surrounding small bar and some snack bar decoration are very emotional, the cost is reasonable, and not too expensive.
Zhouzhuang, a traditional Jiangnan water town, has left us with both mottled white walls and black slate road. Walking on it, you can always feel the vicissitudes of history. It is indeed an old town with some years old. The traces of the ancestors left have not changed. The stone arch bridges and the clear water have not changed, the pleasant living atmosphere also has not changed. Although the commercial taste is getting stronger, the people in the ancient town try to restore everything that was once there, so that the tradition can be passed down. Being in the ancient town of Zhouzhuang is just like you are in an intangible cultural heritage. Even these old street tiles and slab-covered arch bridges are intangible cultural heritage. The 14 ancient stone bridges that were preserved are built in the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. More than 60% of the houses still preserve the architectural style of the period of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and the entire Zhouzhuang ancient town is a pre-selected place for world cultural heritage.

The night seems to be able to hide some unbeauty of this town, such as the yellow river water, and the crowds. The singers who sing in some bars on the riverside begin to sing songs.
