Explore China's Ancient Water Towns
Nanxun
This water town typically draws smaller crowds.The architecture is a unique mix of traditional Chinese and Western styles.As you walk along the ancient canals, you're likely to see locals playing cards or having tea outdoors.The town dates back to the Chunyou Period of the Song Dynasty, between the years of 1241 to 1252.Today, it's considered to be the best destination for weddings.
Tongli
Tongli is considered a mini Venice, with nearly every building on or by a canal.The town itself is composed of seven small islands, separated by 15 canals and joined by more than 40 bridges—plus, five lakes surround the town itself.Tongli is more than 1,000 years old, and the oldest bridge in the town dates back to the Song Dynasty, which began in the year 960.Visitors here should check out the wedding museum, which has antique Chinese wedding clothes and items on display.
Zhouzhuang
This is the most famous and most commercialized ancient water town in China.The architecture here dates back more than 900 years, with about 60 original brick archways and 100 original courtyards.More recently, a tower called Quanfu Temple was built in 1987.Climb to the top to get the best view of the ancient town.Or for a more authentic experience, visit Chengxu Taoist Temple, which was built between 1086 and 1093.It's one of the most famous Taoist temples in the area.
Xitang
Xitang separates itself from other water towns with sheltered waterside streets, allowing locals and guests to comfortably walk alongside the canals even during the rainy season.Thanks to a less commercial atmosphere, visitors will be rewarded with opportunities that aren't likely to be found in other water towns—like fishing with locals on the canals and having dinner on a boat.Xitang is truly ancient, dating back to the Warring States Period of 476 BC to 221 BC.
