This is the real Jiangnan

3 Days 2 Nights Strolling Through Shaoxing's Jiangnan Town, Exploring the Scenes from Lu Xun's Works🏮 🚗Transportation Guide: High-speed rail🚄: Shaoxing Station Self-drive (1 hour from Hangzhou). For city travel, we recommend Didi or shared bikes as attractions in the old town are close to each other. 🚩Must-Visit Attractions: Lu Xun's Hometown is definitely Shaoxing's top attraction! Lu Xun's Former Residence, Hundred-Plant Garden, and Sanwei Study are all on this street, requiring 2-3 hours for a leisurely visit. Arrive around 8 AM to avoid crowds. Free admission but requires advance booking~ Other recommended attractions: 📍East Lake Scenic Area: Shaoxing's version of West Lake, a classic Jiangnan garden 📍Orchid Pavilion: A must for calligraphy lovers, where Wang Xizhi wrote the Preface to the Orchid Pavilion 📍Shen Garden: The site of Lu You and Tang Wan's love story 📍Anchang Ancient Town: A more authentic Jiangnan water town than Lu Xun's Hometown 🍲Food Guide: 1. Stinky Tofu: The most authentic at Cangqiao Straight Street 2. Fennel Beans: A classic snack from Lu Xun's works, soft and delicious 3. Yellow Rice Wine Milk Tea: Must-try Shaoxing specialty 4. Braised Pork with Preserved Vegetables: Signature dish in Shaoxing 5. Shaoxing Yellow Rice Wine: Great as a souvenir 🏨Accommodation Recommendations: Stay near Lu Xun's Hometown or Jiefang Road business district for convenience. Xianheng Hotel and Moke Hotel are good options, priced between 300-600. 💡Practical Tips: 1. Book tickets in advance during peak seasons (holidays) 2. Rainy days add more Jiangnan charm, remember an umbrella 3. Many alleys hide more atmospheric old houses 4. East Lake night tour starts at 20:00 with beautiful night views 5. Shen Garden Night Show is excellent, book tickets early
