Shanghai Dragon Boat Festival Must-Go Big Meat Zongzi Thousand-Year-Old Ancient Town Fengjing One-Day Tour Guide

🧚‍♀️The annual Dragon Boat Festival is here! What's indispensable during the festival is Zongzi! I personally really like Fengjing Big Meat Zongzi! Taking advantage of the holiday, I highly recommend going to the 'Fengjing Ancient Town' in the Jiangnan Water Town, a cultural famous town that has a history of more than 1500 years, and take a stroll! . 🏠Fengjing Town was established in the Song Dynasty and built in the Yuan Dynasty. It spans the Wu and Yue regions, hence it has the beautiful name of 'Wu Yue Ancient Town'. The ancient town is full of water networks, crisscrossing rivers, numerous bridges, and is known as 'ten lanes at a glance'. . 🖊️Entering the ancient town, you can see the tall four-pillar three-room-style imitation ancient stone archway. The 'Fengjing' town name on the archway is the ink treasure of Mr. Cheng Shifa, a famous national painting master and local celebrity in Fengjing. . 🔆Tour: 🌉Highest Arch Bridge Taiping Bridge: ✔️The 'Taiping Bridge' built in the late Ming Dynasty is a single-hole stone arch ancient bridge, which is the highest stone arch bridge in the ancient town, running from north to south, connecting the riverside corridor. . 🧡Ancient Corridor: ✔️A typical Jiangnan water town architecture, 268 meters long, is one of the best in the existing Jiangnan corridors. . 💃Ancient riverside stage: ✔️The stage of the ancient stage, with a hip roof, flying eaves and corners, is deliberately full of charm, one side is on the street, and the other side is facing the river. . 🎨Exhibition Hall: ✔️There are attractions such as Ding Cong Cartoon Museum, Lu Jiren Painting Museum, Three Hundred Garden, Ding Ti Workshop, etc. in the scenic area for visitors to visit. . ♨️Food: ✔️The area along the riverside corridor is a snack street in the ancient town. Almost all restaurants, pastry shops, snack bars, farmhouse small restaurants, etc. are concentrated here. Long square dining tables, long benches, and blue-rimmed bowls are the main equipment here. . 💚Fengjing's four treasures of food 'Ding Ti, yellow wine, dried tofu, champion cake', in addition to the four treasures, there are also big zongzi, shao mai, plum cake, tangyuan, etc. You can see aunts packing zongzi in the zongzi shop, which is very lively and the key is that the taste is really super positive. . 🌄In the evening, you must choose a farmhouse dish under the riverside corridor, taste delicious dishes while watching the water town river view, and listen to the elegant folk songs of the boatmen, how comfortable... . 💯During the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, without leaving Shanghai, it is a good place for the whole family to travel or walk around! Touring the thousand-year-old ancient town and tasting authentic human food, of course, buying big meat zongzi is indispensable! . 👉One-day tour guide: 1️⃣First stop: Donglin Temple, super shocking and spectacular temple 2️⃣Second stop: Huakai Sea Ecological Park, the park is very large with few people and many varieties of flowers, super suitable for taking pictures 3️⃣Third stop: Fengjing Ancient Town, big meat zongzi tour ancient town, evening riverside farmhouse food is very comfortable!
