Zhujiajiao Town

A beautiful and pleasant ancient water town in Jiangnan. After getting off at Zhujiajiao Station on Metro Line 17, it's about an 18-minute walk to the entrance. Upon entering, you first pass by a Wangzai Club, which is a specialty store for Wangwang Foods. I bought a lot of Wangwang snacks there, and they also sell plates shaped like Wangwang Senbei, which are very cute. The entire Zhujiajiao Town is quite large, with plenty to eat, drink, and see. It takes half a day to a full day to explore. There's no entrance fee to enter Zhujiajiao Town, but some historical sites require separate tickets. You can also buy a combined ticket, which is cheaper. Must-see attractions and historical sites include: Fangsheng Bridge, the Qing Dynasty Post Office, Hexinyuan, Kezhi Garden, Zhujiajiao Club Teahouse, and more. You can also leisurely take a boat ride or rent Hanfu for photos. There are many dining options within the streets. Soy sauce shrimp, zha ti, zha rou, and zongzi are famous local delicacies. Grandma's zongzi is oily, fragrant, and cheap, so it's worth a try. Tourists visiting Shanghai should definitely take a trip to Zhujiajiao Town. It's only an hour's drive from the bustling city to this ancient water town. A different side of Shanghai, but equally wonderful.
