A Comprehensive Guide to Your Day Trip to Zhujiajiao

#chinatravel A visit to Zhujiajiao Ancient Town (上海朱家角古镇) requires a little bit of planning, but the rewards are well worth it. Your journey begins with a simple metro ride on Line 17. Upon arrival, you'll need to purchase a ticket to enter the main area. While a general admission ticket is sufficient for walking around, I highly recommend buying a package ticket that includes entry to several of the town’s key attractions, such as the Kezhi Garden and the historical post office. The best way to start your tour is by taking a traditional boat ride, which gives you a great overview of the town's layout. From there, you can explore the different bridges, like the iconic Fangsheng Bridge, and then wander through the narrow alleyways and visit the various historical sites. Reason to Recommend: This is the most practical guide for anyone planning a trip to Zhujiajiao. The clear, step-by-step instructions and practical tips ensure a smooth and enjoyable visit, allowing you to focus on the beauty of the town rather than the logistics. #travel #chinatravel
