Wuzhen is one of the old city thousands of years old in China. The old town is built over the water, located between the 2 provinces, Jiangsu and Zhejiang. This city famoused with the house of one of the famous poet in China, Mao Dun. Compared with cities such as water or Zhou Tong Li Zhuang, Wuzhen has a value of more in-depth history.
River flowing above the city of Wuzhen flows directly to Beijing, making one ancient trade route that connects north and south. Even Emperor Kang Xi, known for its southbound journey to sail through this river.
Lunar New Year holiday yesterday, I had the opportunity to visit this city of water. Wuzhen is divided into 2 areas, scenic zone DongZha already opened nearly 7 years, and scenic XiZha new zone opened. The distance between the entrance about 10 km. With consideration to see the pristine Wuzhen, me and my family went through Xizha chose Gate.
One that needs to be given the thumbs-up management of the Government of China tourism by both central and local levels. Almost all tourist well managed, as well as Wuzhen. From the parking facilities to the information. Oh yeah the toilets are also so-so, to the extent that there are 2 places that one toilet seat for foreign tourists.
Admission price 120 yuan for adults, children 80 yuan. Once past the visitor center, entrance to the pier. There still had to ride the boat to the dock Wuzhen, gas mileage, about 5 minutes.Boatman rowing machines using hands instead,its tired pretty well
At that time the weather was not friendly, drizzle with fog. The atmosphere looked grim, but it adds magic Wuzhen. As soon as stepped foot into the city, which looks as far the eye could see was water and water, and bridges.
In ancient times inhabited Wuzhen permanent residents and 12 thousand people with immigrant total is 60 thousand inhabitants. Currently the city tourism Wuzhen. All residents have been allocated out of line with world events, and educational needs of the population would be for kids and work.
It seemed city enter back into antiquity. All the buildings in Wuzhen remain well cared for, and in accordance with the situation in earlier times. Likewise road still composed of rocks of an age thousands of years and moss.
Many houses that have been turned into guest houses function. In addition to guest houses, there are restaurants. This is where I lunch, with simple dishes.Here there is no coca cola, only tea.
Home residents have been turned into guest houses. Xizha area was quiet, just opened not long ago. Unlike in the scenic area DongJha more shops and museums. Unfortunately at that time, the poet's house Mou Dun out of service, so there is no chance to visit. I could send you some postcard from the post office Wuzhen.
On the other occasion, would be back to visit Wuzhen. Day it was not sufficient to explore this old city. Kokier if you have the opportunity to visit the famous Hangzhou lakenya west, do not forget to visit Wuzhen that can be taken in 1 hour trip from Hangzhou.
