CCTV didn't lie to me, the New Year atmosphere in this Jiangnan ancient town is amazing

No wonder CCTV loves this Jiangnan ancient town I just came back and I have to say I really recommend coming here for the New Year The free Anchang Ancient Town is full of life The New Year atmosphere in the water town is filled with the aroma of soy sauce The bamboo poles are full of soy sauce duck and sausages The black awning boats come and go in the river The aroma of cured meat in the pot is mouthwatering And the people buying New Year goods are bustling and haggling Also, don't miss the light and night view at two or three in the afternoon . This time I went to Shaoxing, I stayed at Shaoxing Puqi Yijing Hotel, every corner is in line with my favorite Chinese aesthetics. White walls and black tiles, lacquerware, green pines, handmade rattan weaving, every step is a scene, the hotel itself is a delicate garden. I especially love their service, taking a boat to the lake during the day, and delivering a small pear soup at night, with a small card to remind you of the temperature the next day, this service is especially heartwarming in winter. What's special is that there is a small museum inside, displaying the master's seal carving, stone carving, calligraphy, which shows the hotel's artistic taste.

This hidden gem of a town is so underrated, it breaks my heart. I really hope it becomes popular.
