Yuehe's ancient charm shines as the lights begin to twinkle, creating a poetic encounter at dusk.

As the setting sun casts its golden glow on the cobblestone streets of Jiaxing's Yuehe Historic District, embark on a twilight stroll through time. Yuehe Historic District, boasting over 1,700 years of history, is the largest and best-preserved historic district in Jiaxing. With its crisscrossing waterways, numerous ancient bridges, and black-tiled, white-walled Jiangnan-style houses lining the riverbanks, it resembles a flowing ink painting. Stroll along the ancient bridges of Yuehe, watch the sunset paint the river gold, listen to the gentle splash of oars, and experience the tranquility and leisure of a Jiangnan water town. Wander through the narrow, ancient alleyways, lined with quaint shops selling traditional handicrafts and local snacks, and feel as if you've stepped back into a bustling marketplace from centuries ago. Find a riverside teahouse, order a pot of tea, listen to a melodious Pingtan performance, and immerse yourself in the unique charm of Jiangnan culture. Dusk at Yuehe Historic District is poetic, romantic, and enchanting. Here, you can slow down, feel the passage of time, savor the charm of history, and embark on an unforgettable twilight journey! Travel Guide Best time to visit: Dusk is the best time to visit Yuehe Historic District, as the lights begin to illuminate the ancient streets, enhancing their charm. Ticket information: Free admission. Visiting suggestions: Set aside 2–3 hrs to explore Yuehe Historic District and fully appreciate its charm.
