Daily departures at 12 PM sharp!!! Perfect for those who can't wake up early. Sharing my previous travel itinerary—time-controlled and easy to follow, packed with activities each day for an action-packed adventure! I stayed near Cangqiao Straight Street (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧. Just follow along, because "you're already here" 📷. Of course, there are plenty more attractions! If you have extra time, feel free to explore!!! **Day 1** 1️⃣ **East Lake Scenic Area** (12:30–14:00) *Ticket required* (*Take a taxi*) The stone cliffs at the foot of Ruokui Mountain resemble the pages of ancient books, etched with the chisel marks of Han Dynasty stonemasons and the whispers of millennia-old waves. As the black-canopied boat passes through Taogong Cave, sunlight slants across the rock walls like unfaded ink stains. The lake cuts the cliffs into twin folding screens, and with each gentle push of the boatwoman’s bamboo pole, ripples form like the rings of time. A teahouse hidden in the bamboo forest offers Longjing tea—half a cup down, and you might glimpse the salt-crusted shoulders of ancient quarry workers dissolving into the emerald waves. 2️⃣ **Shen’s Garden** (14:30–15:15) *Ticket required* (*Take a taxi*) Walking through corridors hung with wish-bearing wooden plaques, the reflections in the Gourd Pond no longer mirror Tang Wan’s rouge. The bricks of the Six Dynasties Well Pavilion still seep with Song-era plum rain, and the broken stele of *The Phoenix Hairpin* lies like a snapped string, still trembling with the refrain of "Wrong, wrong, wrong." Wind chimes tinkle from the eaves of Shuanggui Hall—eight centuries ago, a sigh in a blue robe brushed past the latticed windows, scattering poetic lyrics like fallen petals. 3️⃣ **Lu Xun’s Hometown** (15:30–16:15) *Ticket required* (*Walk or navigate*) The shadow of the soapberry tree stretches over the ruler in the Three Flavors Study, while crickets in the Hundred Grass Garden chirp passages from *From Hundred Grass Garden to Three Flavors Study*. The bench outside Xianheng Inn still bears the palm prints of Kong Yiji, and the salty tang of fennel beans hides the unspoken cries from the "iron house." 4️⃣ **Zhou Enlai Memorial Hall** (16:30–17:00) *Ticket required* (*Take a taxi*) Yellowed letters in display cases bear French postmarks, and in black-and-white footage, young Zhou Enlai’s eyes still reflect the shimmer of Jianhu Lake. His cracked leather briefcase, weathered like a farmer’s hands, cradles the spark of "China’s rise." The window grilles carve the setting sun into slender calligraphy, casting shadows on the brick floor. 5️⃣ **Hometown of Wang Xizhi** (17:15–17:45) *Ticket required* (*Walk or navigate*) The curve of Tifan Bridge mirrors the flourish of a calligrapher’s brush, while the bell of Jiezhu Temple scatters ink-black reflections in the pond. Unfinished copies of *Orchid Pavilion Preface* hang by the river, and an old woman pounds laundry by the shore, her rhythmic thumps echoing the meter of "In the ninth year of Yonghe…" Dusk spills over the stone steps of Bifei Lane, where a white goose might still dip its neck into the last glow of sunset. 6️⃣ **Ying’en Gate Water Street** (18:00–whenever) (*Take a taxi*) The ancient canal kneads twilight into gold leaf, lining the rims of celadon vendors’ rough pottery bowls. Under fluttering wine banners, Shaoxing rice wine milk tea and mung bean jelly perform a watery duet on the tongue. An old tea drinker’s purple clay pot murmurs canal tales, while his felt hat brim holds forty years of plum rain. When lanterns light up, the opera stage flares to life—Yueju sleeves swirl, stirring starlight on the water, and the stone bridge becomes a dock where the moon moors. **Day 2** ⚠️ *Book return tickets for after 8 PM. Store luggage at the hotel and adjust sightseeing time accordingly.* 1️⃣ **Cangqiao Straight Street** (12:00–13:00) (*Step outside and explore*) Black-canopied boats crease the jade-green water, their oars scattering light onto mossy stone steps. An old woman with a bamboo basket squats on the bridge, fresh water chestnuts spread on rough cloth, droplets rolling down the leaves. Half-drawn bamboo blinds shade riverside teahouses, where blue-clad patrons cradle celadon cups, the yellow wine inside mirroring the whitewashed walls across the water. 2️⃣ **Hometown of Wang Yangming** (13:30–14:00) *Ticket required* (*Take a taxi*) Within white-walled courtyards, four-hundred-year-old stones still breathe time. Light and shadow glide across plain walls like unfinished footnotes in a philosophy text. The yellowed manuscript of *Instructions for Practical Living* in the display case holds traces of moonlight from Longchang Post Station. The stone slabs of Tianquan Square are cool underfoot, and the wind skims the bronze clepsydra, writing "unity of knowledge and action" in the air. 3️⃣ **West Small Road Historic District** (14:15–15:15) (*Walk or navigate*) The canal narrows here into a jade ribbon, its tiled reflections snipped by willow branches. Clotheslines span the water, indigo-dyed cloth fluttering like swimming fish in the dusk. A barber’s rusty swivel chair creaks as the dozing old man clutches his clippers, the disinfectant in glass bottles glowing with a 1990s sheen. 4️⃣ **Fushan Straight Street** (15:30–16:30) (*Take a taxi*) Bamboo trays hold freshly steamed lotus root cakes, the steam revealing an old woman’s smile. A tinkerer fiddles with a transistor radio outside a hardware store, its crackling opera competing with bicycle bells. Thread-bound books flutter at a secondhand stall, their yellowed pages bookmarking a 1983 movie ticket. The copper ladle of a wonton cart clinks against porcelain bowls, shrimp and seaweed unfurling like ink paintings in the broth.

#chinatraveltips Shaoxing one-day tour Shanghai Hongqiao - Shaoxing North G7505 8:57-10:15 Shaoxing North - Shanghai Hongqiao G7562 19:04-20:18 There are many people in Shaoxing! I have to queue up on weekends! Donghu Lake and Xixiaolu are the two favorite scenic spots, and Lu Xun's hometown couldn't help but want to take a card. Walking the entire route in the city is still a bit tiring, but the section of Fushan Park is the quietest. For other sections, you can choose bicycles! Donghu Lake: The ticket price is relatively high, the view is wide, I really like it! The A line I chose waited for 6 minutes at Shuishan Pier. Suggest buying Line B and walking slowly until you reach Pier 2, where no one is queuing up! Lu Xun's Hometown: From "Baicao Garden" to "Sanwei Bookstore", Line up! Cangqiao Zhijie: a street of specialty snacks, Xixiao Road: a quiet residential area! Hometown of the Book Saint: Business is also quite serious. After 6 o'clock when there were fewer people, it was surprisingly beautiful in the evening sunset! Routes: Shaoxing North Station ->East Lake (1h) ->Kung Fu Chuan Da Seafood Noodles&Wang's Steamed dumplings ->Lu Xun's Hometown ->Cangqiao Straight Street ->West Path (quiet and comfortable) ->The Hometown of the Sage of Calligraphy (sitting by the lake for 1h waiting for the train, I unexpectedly waited for sunset!) ->Bazi Bridge (I can't walk without going) #historicallandmarks #localguides

Prefecture Mountain, also known as Dragon Mountain or Sleeping Dragon Mountain, is located to the west of Shaoxing city. During the Spring and Autumn period, it was the capital of the State of Yue, and later, due to the old Shaoxing Prefecture government office being located at the eastern foot of the mountain, it was renamed Prefecture Mountain. Visiting Prefecture Mountain Park, one can enjoy not only the scenery but also the historical sites. According to records, during the peak of the Song Dynasty, there were seventy pavilions, terraces, and towers on the mountain. Existing cultural relics and scenic spots include more than ten sites such as the King of Yue's Platform, Ancient Cypress of the Southern Song Dynasty, Qingbai Spring, King of Yue's Hall, Cliff Carvings, Feiyi Building, and Fengyu Pavilion. Ascending the Feiyi Building, one can overlook the cityscape of Shaoxing. The park is lush with trees, and the stairways and paths meander through the forest. The dense foliage shields the sun, making it a great place to escape the summer heat in Shaoxing. 📍Address: No. 270, Fushan Heng Street, Yuecheng District, Shaoxing City 🎫Ticket: Free 🕑Opening Hours: 4:30-16:30 🚗Transportation 🚌Bus: Take routes 6, 18, 23, 52, or 177 and get off at Daxiaochang Station 🚘Self-driving: Navigate to Prefecture Mountain Park, parking available 🚇Subway: Take Line 1 to City Square Station, Exit F, and walk for 10 minutes 🚶Tour Route King of Yue's Platform - King of Yue's Hall - Sanpeng Pavilion - Feiyi Building - Cliff Carvings - Penglai Pavilion - Chenghuai Pavilion - Shaoxing Museum ⛰️Recommended Check-in Spots 1️⃣King of Yue's Platform Built by later generations to commemorate King Goujian of Yue, who endured hardships to restore his country and avenge his humiliation 2️⃣King of Yue's Hall Built on Yishan Mountain with high flying eaves and walls, it is quite imposing and rich in the simple and elegant national characteristics 3️⃣Qingbai Spring A relic from the time when Fan Zhongyan, a great literary figure of the Northern Song Dynasty, was the governor of Yuezhou 4️⃣Feiyi Building Previously a watchtower for observing the military movements of the Wu state, it is now the highest point in the Shaoxing urban area ⚠️Tips 1.

A dreamy intoxication. If you ask me about my favorite water town in the south of the Yangtze, my answer would be Shaoxing. The white walls and black tiles are infused with a resonant spirit that makes it hard not to fall in love with this place of outstanding people and magical land. For your first visit to Shaoxing, I suggest ticking off the central attractions all at once. Day 1: Lu Xun's Hometown + Shen Garden The two spots are close to each other and within walking distance. In between, there's a shop called Huijingxuan. I recommend trying their yellow wine ice pop and milk tea. Although a bit pricey, the taste is directly next level. Day 2: Sage of Calligraphy's Hometown + Fushan Park + Cangqiao Straight Street Fushan Park is not crowded with tourists, but the scenery is quite nice, and many locals come here to exercise and walk their dogs. Down the hill is Cangqiao Straight Street. Although it's quite commercialized, it's still nice to stroll around and pass the time. Most attractions in Shaoxing do not charge an entrance fee, which is very appealing. Accommodations are also inexpensive. I suggest finding one near a subway station.

Shaoxing Fushan Park, a quiet paradise hidden in the hustle and bustle. The sun shines on the winding path, as if nature has laid a golden carpet for us. Every grass and tree here tells the traces of time. Here, I feel the calmness of my soul, as if time has slowed down. Every step is a scenery, every breath is a poem.
