The evening atmosphere in Wuzhen's South Gate is absolutely amazing

Most people choose to visit the West Gate of Wuzhen and spend 150 yuan on a ticket to experience the crowdedness. In fact, the South Gate of Wuzhen is already enough to explore. Visiting ancient towns is mainly about experiencing the classical and quaint atmosphere. The experience under the scorching sun in summer is not very good, but in the evening or on rainy days, the feeling instantly improves. The blue tones during the blue hour paired with the warm lights of the town are very tranquil. The South Gate area is not heavily developed yet, but it has almost everything you need. It's very suitable for a casual evening stroll during a one-day trip to the surrounding area. Just navigate directly to Wuzhen South Gate. There is free parking at the entrance.

The Unmissable Beauty of Water Towns

只管吃喝玩樂
The Bund

Kick off your city-chic adventure in Shanghai at The Bund, pulse through trendsetting venues like Louis Vuitton’s dazzling cruise at Taikoo Hui, and wrap up with swanky sips at Lucy Me’s sought-after café reservation 🍸🌆. Next, switch gears to the poetic charm of Wuzhen & Xitang Water Towns, where rivers, tiled roofs, and willow trees frame a living postcard—especially on a moody, misty day. Start with a riverside stroll at The Bund during golden hour, snagging epic panoramas of the skyline and modern architecture. Snap insta-worthy shots from the iconic promenade with the cloudy backdrop for dramatic effect. Hit Taikoo Hui for the LV cruise—no entry fee, but check ahead for pop-up events likely to deliver high-fashion ambiance and perfect photo ops beside gleaming storefronts. Lucy Me’s cozy corners are ideal for “latte art” pics; your café booking guarantees you a seat away from the crowd. Hop over to Jiaxing for water town magic. In Wuzhen or Xitang, rent a traditional costume (about 198 RMB with makeup) for your own “historic heroine moment.” Wander winding stone lanes, duck into riverside teahouses, and choose a sunny or rainy day for shots by arched bridges and canal-side willows—each weather mood tells a unique story. Make sure to plan outfit rental a day ahead, as weekends fill up quickly! Silence your phone: quiet corners are perfect for serene, reflective snaps. Pro tip: Watch for slippery stones in the rain and bring extra cash for rentals and snacks. Local buses or high-speed train get you to Jiaxing in under an hour. #Shanghai #ModernChina #WaterTown #TravelStyle #Jiaxing
