[2025 Tongxiang Stay] Travel Guide for Waterside Resort (Updated Apr)

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 I didn't expect that such an ancient and simple water town actually has an elegant and fashionable hotel. The "Wuzhen Waterside Resort Hotel" is located in the Xizha Scenic Area, very close to the tourist center and parking lot, with a superior geographical location. The simple and elegant appearance, modern and stylish lobby, design style full of oriental classical aesthetics, antique furnishings, and exquisite screens give people a whole sense of luxury. It is worthy of being a high-end hotel ranked at the top in Wuzhen. The waterside feature room is full of ancient charm, with a classical carved bed frame, just like an ancient master's bedroom, and the soft yellow tones of the wood give it an antique feel. The room is approximately 19 square meters in size and costs approximately NT$3,500 for two people including breakfast. The hotel provides thoughtful service and electric cars to connect to various attractions, which is very convenient. The most amazing thing is the swimming pool, which gives people the illusion of swimming in the Grand Hotel. #ZhejiangTravel #Jiangnan Water Town #Wuzhen #Xizha

I had no intention of entering Jiangnan, but Jiangnan entered my heart Overview: Wuzhen is located in Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province. It is one of the typical representatives of China's Jiangnan water towns and is known as the "land of fish and rice, and the home of silk." Wuzhen has a history of thousands of years.

👍🏻 Recommendation: Who can resist the romance of living by the water? With its "green bricks, small tiles, horse-head walls, and lattice windows in the corridors," Wuzhen encapsulates the poetic charm of Jiangnan in its small bridges and flowing streams. In the morning, watch the mist drift over the stone paths, and in the evening, take a Wu Peng boat ride into the shimmering lights, where even the air is filled with a subtle smoky aroma. Whether you're an art enthusiast checking in at the Muxin Art Museum or a foodie hunting down the alleyway's preserved duck shop, Wuzhen fulfills all your "authentic Jiangnan" fantasies! 🌧️🎐 🗺 Attractions: Xizha vs. Dongzha, how to avoid tourist traps? 🟢 Xizha Scenic Area (Art & Slow Life) 1. Muxin Art Museum✨ (Tickets: CNY 20, closed on Mondays) "In the past, days were slow, carriages, horses, and mail were all slow" - Mr. Muxin's words and paintings are hidden in this waterfront area. Photography is not allowed inside, but the glass curtain wall reflects the blue water and green trees, creating a flowing painting in itself. We recommend sitting on the rooftop terrace and enjoying the tranquility of "art in sync with time." 2. Old Post Office📮 The red-lacquered wooden door and green mailbox will instantly transport you back to the Republican era! Buy a hand-painted Wuzhen postcard, stamp it with the exclusive postmark, and drop it into the wooden mailbox. Maybe someday, this nostalgic piece of Jiangnan will arrive on time. 3. Grass & Wood Dyehouse🎨 Indigo fabrics hang from the wooden frames, swaying like a blue sea in the wind! You can try tie-dyeing a handkerchief (from CNY 30). The owner will teach you how to tie the threads and dye the fabric. You can take the finished product home. For a great photo op, peek out from behind the fabric curtain. 4. White Lotus Pagoda🌅 Climbing the 161 steps to the top is definitely worth it! The setting sun paints the river gold, and the lanterns of the homestays along the banks light up one after another, like a string of pearls hanging over the waterways. Remember to avoid the crowds if you're flying a drone. 🟢 Dongzha Scenic Area (Bustling Market Life) 1. Former Residence of Mao Dun📚 The "Son of Wuzhen" from our textbooks! In the courtyard with its green tiles and white walls, Mr. Mao Dun's manuscripts and daily necessities are on display. The wisteria trellis in the backyard was where he used to read. Literature lovers, don't miss this spot. 2. Hongyuantai Dyehouse👩🔬 More down-to-earth than the Xizha Dyehouse! You can see the masters using soybean powder to prepare the dye-resist agent, brushing patterns on white cloth, and then immersing it in an indigo dye vat. When it's drying, you can smell the faint fragrance of plants. 3. Shadow Puppet Theatre🎭 (Showtimes: 9:00-11:00/13:00-15:00, every half hour) See intangible cultural heritage for CNY 30! Leather-carved figures perform on the screen, accompanied by Jiangnan tunes. "Wu Song Beats the Tiger" and "The Tortoise and the Hare" are super interesting. Sit in the front row to see the puppeteer's nimble fingers. 🚗 Transportation: 3 options, the 3rd is best for those who prefer convenience! • By Air✈️: Fly to Hangzhou Xiaoshan/Shanghai Pudong/Hongqiao Airport, then take the airport bus (approx. CNY 50). It's a 1.5-hour ride to Wuzhen, and the scenic area is a 5-minute walk from the bus stop. Perfect for those traveling light. • By High-Speed Rail🚄: Take the train to Tongxiang Station. Take bus K282 (CNY 3, 50 mins) on the right-hand side of the station exit to Wuzhen Bus Station, then transfer to K350 (CNY 1, 15 mins) to Dongzha/Xizha. Note that the last bus is at 6:30 pm, so don't stay out too late! • By Car🚗: Navigate to "Wuzhen Scenic Area Parking Lot." There are three parking lots: Dongzha/Xizha/Visitor Center (CNY 10/hr, capped at CNY 50). Private cars are not allowed inside the scenic area. Take the free shuttle bus from the parking lot to the entrance. 🗺 Itinerary (2 Days & 1 Night Immersive Experience, with photo spots!): Day 1: Xizha In-Depth Tour (Night view is a must!) • Morning: Enter the park at 9 am. First, go to the "Grass & Wood Dyehouse" to capture the flowing indigo fabrics (fewer crowds and better lighting). Then visit the Muxin Art Museum. Afterward, have a latte at the "Time Flows Like Water" cafe and watch the birds fly over the lake. • Noon: Check in at the "Republican Era" restaurant for preserved duck (crispy skin and tender meat) and white water fish (tender and boneless). Sit by the riverside window and watch the Wu Peng boats glide by. • Afternoon: Walk through "Rain Alley" (narrow streets perfect for traditional photos), buy a Ding Sheng Cake (red bean filling, sweet but not greasy) at the "Water Market," and climb the White Lotus Pagoda for sunset views in the evening. Remember to wear comfortable shoes! • Evening: See the "Xizha Night View" at 7 pm! When the lanterns light up, the river transforms into a golden ribbon. We recommend taking panoramic photos at "Tong'an Bridge" or taking a Wu Peng boat ride (CNY 60/person) through the waterways and listening to the boatwoman sing Wu dialect songs. Day 2: Dongzha Experience Tour (Early birds win!) • Morning: Arrive at Dongzha before 8 am (fewer crowds!). First, watch the shadow puppet show, then visit the Former Residence of Mao Dun. Stop by the "Xiuzhen Taoist Temple" for a visit. Then, go to the Hongyuantai Dyehouse to watch the masters at work and buy an indigo fabric as a souvenir. • Noon: Have mutton noodles (soft and not gamey) and Xiuhua Jincai (local wild vegetables) at "Lao Shunxing Restaurant." All-you-can-eat for around CNY 50 per person. • Afternoon: Visit the "Hundred Beds Museum" to see the carvings on ancient wedding beds, then learn how to make flower lanterns at the "Folk Customs Museum." Return before 3 pm to avoid rush hour. 🍱 Food Recommendations: Wuzhen's carbs are worth every calorie! • Must-try Classics🔥: ◦ Preserved duck at "Jin'an Private Kitchen" (caramelized skin, tender and juicy meat); ◦ Sesame hemp flowers at "Zi La La You Zan Zi" (freshly fried and crispy, CNY 15/bag for a snack); ◦ "Mao Lao Tai Stinky Tofu" (crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, with sweet and spicy sauce, CNY 5/serving, you won't be able to stop). • Hidden Gems💡: ◦ Wu Mi Gao (made of black rice, chewy and fragrant with wine) at "Wu Jiu Xiao Guan" in Xizha; ◦ Cong Bao Gui (thin pancake rolled with fried dough sticks and scallions, brushed with sweet bean sauce, CNY 3/piece) from street vendors in Dongzha. 💰 Expenses: Options for budget travelers and luxury seekers! • Tickets🎫: Xizha CNY 150/person, Dongzha CNY 110/person, combined ticket CNY 190 (valid for 24 hrs, allows multiple entries if staying inside the scenic area). Half price for student IDs, 20% off for seniors over 60. • Accommodation🏠: Homestays outside the scenic area CNY 200-400/night, waterfront hotels inside the scenic area CNY 800+ (including breakfast and free boat rides).

You can stroll until midnight, and the morning offers stunning empty scenes for photos. • Other Expenses🚣: Wu Peng boat ride (shared) CNY 60/person, tie-dye experience CNY 50/time, postcards CNY 3-10/piece. Bring cash, as some small vendors only accept it. 📌 Other Tips (Local secrets!): 1. Outfit Formula👗: Light-colored Hanfu/Qipao (off-white, light green are best) + oil-paper umbrella/round fan (CNY 15/piece in the scenic area). Avoid neon colors, which clash with the green tiles and white walls. 2. Off-Peak Secret⏰: Xizha is least crowded at 8 am/9 pm. Avoid tour group peak hours in Dongzha (after 10 am). Rainy days create a more atmospheric setting for photos and offer empty scenes. 3. Avoiding Tourist Traps⚠️: Souvenirs are cheaper outside the scenic area (e.g., indigo handkerchiefs are CNY 10/piece outside vs. CNY 25 inside). Opt for a "chartered boat" (CNY 300/boat, fits 6 people), which is more cost-effective than sharing. 4. Stamp Collecting📔: The Xizha Visitor Center, Old Post Office, and Muxin Art Museum have Wuzhen-themed stamps. Bring a small notebook to collect them as you explore. If you ask me when Wuzhen is most beautiful, it's probably when you open the window in the morning and see the stone bridge "dressing up" in the mist; it's when you sit by the river in the evening and watch the lantern reflections turn the water orange; and it's when you leave, feeling like you've taken a piece of Jiangnan's gentleness with you. 💦 Save this guide, and see you in Wuzhen!

Step into Wuzhen Water Town, and the ancient charm will ripple around you. The smooth bluestone paths beneath your feet have been polished by time. Every step feels like treading on the strings of history, playing a soft echo. The river meanders, and the awning boats sway gently.

The wooden pavilions along the bank, with their white walls and black tiles, are scattered in a well-organized manner, reflecting in the water like a natural ink painting. Walking into the ancient alley, the air is filled with a faint smell of firewood, and the occasional aroma of food instantly evokes memories of taste.

If you have a sufficient budget, such as Tishang Hotel, Wangjinli, and Constellation Water Villas, the experience will be directly enhanced. 3.

I'm very glad that I booked a waterfront balcony room this time. The room is small but the amenities and beds are very good. The bathroom is more spacious than the room. Maybe the bed frame is too small, so two adults will feel a little cramped in the room. Fortunately, there is a large balcony to get some fresh air. The balcony is on the first floor. There is a small waterway in front of it and a corridor with a row of rooms opposite. There is not much scenery, which is a little different from what I imagined. Next time, I can book a homestay facing the water and change to a room with a view from the window. Hotel guests can use their room card to take the scenic area's shuttle bus for free. Please ask the staff at the boarding point.
