📍 Recommended check-in spots 1️⃣ Tishan Bridge & Mochi - The place where Wang Xizhi wrote on a fan for an old woman, with bluestone slab bridge + white walls and black tiles. Standing on the bridge with the black-sailed boat as the background, you can take pictures of the "Yanyu Jiangnan" atmosphere - Mochi (legend has it that Wang Xizhi washed his brush in the pool), use the reflection of the water surface to take symmetrical compositions, it is recommended to take pictures in the early morning or at dusk when the light is soft 2️⃣ Jifang Street Art Alley - The alleys are full of calligraphy curtains, old walls covered with vines, and retro street lamps, suitable for taking pictures of "new Chinese style" or "Republic of China style" - Hidden camera position: find the "calligraphy wall" in the alley (Wang Xizhi's "Lanting Preface" clip projection wall) 3️⃣ Jiezhu Lecture Temple Yellow Wall - The bright yellow exterior wall of the temple + round arch, with mottled bamboo shadows, easily get the "Little Kyoto" Zen blockbuster 4️⃣ Riverside teahouses and black-sailed boats - Recommend the teahouse "No. 9 West Street", where you can take a bird's-eye view of the boats on the river from the second-floor window, with a beautiful frame composition - Spend 20 yuan to take a black-sailed boat, and let the photographer capture the dynamic picture of "boats sailing in ink and wash" on the shore 📸 Photography skills ✔️ Dressing suggestions: Hanfu/New Chinese style/plain long skirt, with folding fans, oil-paper umbrellas and other props ✔️ Time selection: - 7-9 am in the morning: Few people, good light and shadow, the best photos in the mist - Rainy days are even better! Bluestone reflection + water ripples, with built-in ink filter ✔️ Composition tips: - Use arches/flower windows as foreground frames - Shoot upward when shooting calligraphy veils to avoid messy backgrounds 🍵 Supporting experience ▪️ Cultural and creative experience: Buy handwritten bookmarks (customizable names) at "Grandpa Bookstore" ▪️ Must-eat food: - "Yellow wine popsicles" hold them by the river to take a check-in photo - "Shaoxing stinky tofu" must be recognized at the "Wang Laohan stinky tofu" stall ▪️ Hidden gameplay: Go to the "Cai Yuanpei Former Residence" square in the evening and take pictures of the lanterns lighting up at the blues time ℹ️ Practical information - Tickets: Free for the block, 5 yuan for Jiezhu Temple - Transportation: 10 minutes walk from "City Square Station" of Shaoxing Metro Line 1 - Tour duration: 2-3 hours is recommended for taking photos and checking in ✨ Summary in one sentence: There is no commercial hustle and bustle here, only the spirit of literati who pick up the pen and dip it in ink. Every corner is the Jiangnan described by Wang Xizhi! #Babysitter-level travel photography guide #Have fun with friends #Shaoxing Calligraphy Sage's Hometown #Take parents to see the world
