Shaoxing day trip, with a tour route!
Let's go, from Hangzhou straight to Shaoxing, take the subway line 5 to line 1, it's so easy that it's flying!🚇
Back then, I was a 'wanderer' in my spare time at university, running all over the streets and alleys of Shaoxing. But now I know that the subway between Hangzhou and Shaoxing has been connected for a long time, isn't it a bit out of date haha😅
Time? About four or five hours of leisurely tour, and you can eat and drink heartily, isn't life supposed to be like this?🍻
First, let me talk about my favorite route, where you can truly feel the flavor of the ancient water town. The best feeling about Shaoxing ancient town is that you can hear the sound of life coming from the deep alleys, not the commercial advertisements all over the street. Really, this is super important!
Subway (Lu Xun's hometown station) Exit C - Our starting point!
🏮Shuigouying
Although the walk here is short, the restaurants and snacks on both sides are very grounded, without that high-end feeling, and not so fit for taking pictures. This place still retains the memory of our student days... a bit dirty, but the taste is 100 points!
🏮Cangqiao Straight Street
Continue walking from Shuigouying, at first it's still the original flavor of life, and then it gradually becomes more commercial. I used to think that the night view here was beautiful, the old street atmosphere, the sound of the bell ringing, now... it's a bit more commercial, a bit disappointed.
🏮City Square
The square next to the old city wall, the aunties dancing in the square at night, full of energy.
🏮Xiaoshan Street
This is a paradise for the elderly, a street full of daily necessities, all the daily necessities from my childhood memories are here.
🏮Book Sage's Hometown
The old house of Wang Xizhi, a place I often visited during university, suddenly there was a 'Book Sage's Hometown', did I remember it wrong or has it been renamed?
🏮Eight-character Bridge
The bridge is in the shape of an 8, quite appropriate, right? If you're like me and don't like those commercial places, the Eight-character Bridge is just right! Listen, the sound of water, the sound of life.
🏮Lu Xun's Hometown
This... a very famous place, believe me, you know!
Finally, return to Subway Exit A, and go home with full memories.🏠
Food time:
🥢Plum dried vegetable series: dried vegetable sauce cake, dumplings, buns, only unimaginable, not uneatable!
🥢Stinky tofu: Although everyone says it's delicious, but I... had an unpleasant encounter, still lingering fear.🙊
🥢Cream Xiaopan: Recommend the old lady next to Lu Xun's hometown, not too bad, but that egg smell is too that, forget it, let the cream Xiaopan go.🤢
🥢Yellow wine popsicle: This is not bad, especially the yellow wine coffee, although the taste is a bit light, but the face value is high, you can try it!🍦
Bring some special products home? Yellow wine is a must. Kuaiji Mountain, Guyue Longshan, sounds very feeling, right? But... back to the point, this is still the most cost-effective online shopping! No need to carry heavy shaking all the way, we won't patronize in our scenic area.📦🏠
Shaoxing, your beauty, I ultimately lacked time to taste carefully, but next time I see you, I will still bring new expectations and appetite to explore every corner of you! See you next time, beautiful ancient water town!👋🧳💕
