Hangzhou subway is directly accessible!!! Shaoxing is a very suitable place for literary and artistic youth. The small bridges, flowing water, and homes here, the harmonious coexistence of people and the natural environment here, are always telling the tranquility and elegance of this city, and it has also been naturally endowed with the attributes of play. When walking in the slanting sun and grass trees of the ancient city, ordinary lanes and alleys, you can see, learn, and realize, unknowingly, peeping into the "ideal country" of the soul. If you want to go to the south of the Yangtze River, compared to Suzhou and Hangzhou, the awning boats, stone roads, narrow alleys, small bridges and flowing water... This treasure town has all the poetic and picturesque of the southern water town, but it is not as commercialized as Suzhou and Hangzhou and there are so many tourists, but there is more comfort and tranquility. Even if it's just a simple one or two days of Citywalk, it's enough to play around the whole city of Shaoxing! The ink pool, ancient bridge, grandfather's old bookstore, and ubiquitous wall calligraphy and painting in the hometown of the sage of books, strolling among them, full of poetic and picturesque and bookishness! In Lu Xun's hometown, you can go to the same "From Baicao Garden to Sanwei Bookstore" in the Chinese textbook, take a look at where Mr. Lu Xun lived when he was a child, and you can also sit in a awning boat and feel the charm of the southern water town here. Walking in Cangqiao Straight Street, take a look at the old houses along the river, look at the beautiful scenery of the water town on Baozhu Bridge, and daze in the teahouse, it's simply too comfortable! There is a heart-shaped big tree in the historical block of West Xiaolu, which is the location of the movie "Summer of West Xiaolu", it is very quiet on weekdays, and there are also many art students to sketch. The eight-character old ancient bridge from the Song Dynasty to the present, both sides are towering camphor trees shaded by green trees, and there are some comfortable small shops scattered, coming and going here, there is really no lack of fireworks.

I recommend the area around Guangning Bridge on Cangqiao Straight Street, where there are several neem trees. It's worth wandering around, and there's also a popular spot for taking photos with the wall-climbing roses right on Guangning Bridge. In the hometown of the Sage of Calligraphy, there's only one tree, although it's a classic spot, it tends to be crowded, so if you want to take portraits, you should go early in the morning. Transportation: You can get there from Hangzhou by direct subway or train, and it's also convenient to drive.

This not only allows you to experience the historical culture of Shaoxing but also to taste the authentic charm of the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River. In Cangqiao Straight Street, food is also an unmissable part. Stinky tofu, cream Xiaopan, yellow wine popsicles, and mulian tofu are all special snacks here. Dishes like dried vegetable pork, Shaoxing Sanxian, drunken chicken, and mildewed amaranth steamed tofu are authentic Shaoxing cuisine, each with an unforgettable taste. Cangqiao Straight Street is an open street block, with no admission fee and open around the clock. Whether it's day or night, there are different styles waiting for you to discover.

🈺 Ancient Town: Shaoxing, the hometown of the Sage of Calligraphy 📍 Address: No. 62, Jishan Street, Yuecheng District, Shaoxing City 🌟 This is my second visit to Shaoxing, and I have strolled through Cangqiao Straight Street each time. As soon as you enter, you can feel the atmosphere of the Jiangnan water town, with its bluestone slabs, wet moss, and black-awning boats. The alleys behind are right by the water, offering the scenic 'houses all nestled along the river'‼️ 🌟 Another highlight of Cangqiao Straight Street is the well-developed catering industry. Famous local restaurants, snacks, and trendy tea houses can all be found here. You can enjoy delicious food while appreciating the scenery, and it's enough to spend an afternoon here, making for an effortless itinerary‼️ 🌟 From north to south, Cangqiao Straight Street is lined with traditional ancient stone bridges such as Cang Bridge, Longmen Bridge, Baozhu Bridge, Fu Bridge, Shimen Bridge, Jiubridge, Xiguan Bridge, and Huangyi Bridge, each offering different views perfect for taking beautiful photos in Hanfu‼️ 🌟 There is also a free Zhang Guiming Art Museum on Cangqiao Straight Street, which currently has a calligraphy exhibition.

🌟Highlight features: Cangqiao Straight Street is located in the Yuezi City Historical and Cultural Protection Zone, with typical Jiangnan-style white walls and black tiles, blue stone slabs, and black awning boats. It has a picturesque scenery of small bridges, flowing water, and houses, and is a famous historical and cultural district in old Shaoxing, as well as a landmark pedestrian street. 👍Most recommended: This old street is not too long, with traditional water town houses on both sides of the river, each with a small river dock in the backyard, typical of the "one river, five streets" pattern in Shaoxing city. The street is lined with Shaoxing's unique Taihe buildings, but nowadays most of the buildings on both sides are shops, restaurants, and specialty stores. 📝Tips: The commercialization level of Cangqiao Straight Street is higher than that of Shusheng Hometown and Baziqiao District. The three districts are not very far apart and can be visited in one day. If you only go to two, I personally recommend Shusheng Hometown and Baziqiao. 🚉Transportation guide: Take a bus within Shaoxing city and get off at stations such as Huangyi Bridge, Luxun Primary School, and Shaoxing Grand Theater to walk to Zhijie Street.
