Zhujiajiao is probably one of the favorite ancient towns in Shanghai. It is in Shanghai with a long history and there are quite a lot of things to visit and eat. There are also old parent-child play places such as the Oriental Green Boat nearby. Compared with Xitang Wuzhen, although it is not famous, it has fewer tourists and is relatively quiet. It's good to come here for two days on the weekend, hang out and get in shape.
Transportation:
Self-driving. The most convenient way to get to Zhujiajiao is of course self-driving. You can follow the navigation and there is no problem.
Yan 'an Road Elevated A9 to Exit Zhujiajiao-or follow National Highway 318-to Zhujiajiao and turn to Xiangningbang Road.
There is no direct access to public transportation by subway. The best way is to take a bus at the parking spot under the elevated Yan 'an East Road in People's Square.
The trip to Zhujiajiao was actually a temporary idea. There were children at home to study, and there were few opportunities for the family of three to travel. It was basically winter and summer vacations and weekends. I was lucky when I came out this weekend. I happened to encounter rowing competitions and night markets, which was much more lively than usual.
DAY1:
Zhuli House-Ancient Town-Terrace Dinner
I stayed at Zhuli Jushe Hot Spring Hotel, which is located in the ancient town. The location is excellent. It lives next to the ancient water transportation river. It is only 2 minutes away from Fangsheng Bridge. It is very convenient. You can visit the ancient town whenever you want. It doesn't matter if you visit it late.
The door is not very eye-catching. It should be in line with the style of the club. If you are not careful, you will miss it. If there is access control, swipe your card to enter, which is very private and relatively safe. The room uses a key, remember to lock the door.
The entrance is in the style of a dry landscape courtyard, very Japanese, with a small Buddhist niche.
The floor is paved with white gravel and some stacked stone groups form a miniature garden landscape.
The "water" in dry mountains and rivers is usually represented by sand and gravel, and sometimes patterns are painted on the surface of the sand to express the flow of water. The "mountain" is usually represented by a stone. If you change into a bathrobe, you can get a wave of beautiful photos pretending to be in Japan, which is also very good.
Zhuli Jushe is another work of Jushe.
"Zhuli" is taken from the ancient name of Zhujiajiao; and "Kushe" is derived from the Shiqin Bodhisattva's "Abhidamu Kushe Theory", which is a Chinese translation of the ancient Hindu "kosa", which means the container of body and soul.
Here, you can enjoy the dual relaxation of your body and mind, allowing you to temporarily leave the prosperity of the secular world and return to the past.
There are all kinds of furnishings and handmade works in the lobby, each of which is exquisite. Some of the utensils are for sale. If you like, you can ask for the price.
There are tea houses and places to copy scriptures and write here. Sometimes we hold some activities to see if we can meet them.
The corridor is lower than other places, but it has a purer Japanese style.
There is also a small courtyard inside.
Our room is on the third floor. The name is Kui, and the others are names such as Tong. It is easy to think of "The Tale of Genji". Those who like Japanese culture should be able to quickly appreciate the mystery.
The room is a Zen room guest house. It is made in a tea nunnery style and low-key, but the area is still quite large. It is complete with bathing and everything, so you don't have to bring it yourself. I remember this is a nude bubble, so I don't need to bring a swimsuit.
The room and the external environment are in the same vein. It feels great to have bamboo screen spaces, tatami mats, bubble tea, and tasting snacks.
The child's father began to be smug when he came in, saying that when I pulled him out, he was in a hurry and needed to shave before going to the hot spring. Ah, why should I shave when I soak in the hot spring, but I can't hold it.
The three-circle electric shaver he used to be a drag on every journey. Either looking around before going out, or he often found that he had forgotten to bring it with him. Several times, he had a stubble all the way. This time, I wanted to say that he "shaved for nothing", but he actually had a trump card-Gillette travel suit. It turned out that he directly rushed to Watsons to buy it the day before departure.
At that time, I was in a hurry and didn't have time to unpack the box, so I just brought it out together. Not to mention, this razor has a pretty good appearance. Don't think that boys don't need to be good-looking. In terms of exquisiteness, boys have more tricks than girls.
What strikes my heart most about this travel suit is the knife case it comes with. It is made of black matte texture and is about the size of a glasses case. It is also convenient to put your carry-on bag directly when you go out. It does not occupy an area and does not have to worry about scratching your bag. Hygiene is also guaranteed! I suddenly realized that it matched the Zen style of this trip ~
My husband said that his favorite thing is that this knife has five-layer blades, which is very "full"! The effect of shaving once can be better than that of other razors several times. Even if you lift the knife with your hand, there will be no small stubble left. Moreover, the small round ball under the cutter head can also rotate up and down, left and right, and even hold her husband's square face, not letting go of any corner. It is smooth and convenient to use, saves a lot of time in the morning, and is very suitable for traveling or on business.
It is also paired with a two-in-one facial cleanser, which can be used as shaving foam and can also be used as cleansing and greasy. It is also super convenient. Especially since the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, it is quite hot now, and my face also likes to get oily. It can deeply clean the skin while shaving and relieve oil problems. My husband said that his colleague insisted on using it several times, but now his face is clear and refreshed all day long!
Cleaning is also more convenient than a three-circle electric shaver. Once the water is flushed, the beard left on the knife will be gone.
When he's done cleaning up, we'll go together and ruin it.
Be aware that there is a time period for soaking the soup here. The time is different on weekends and on holidays, and it is available in the morning, afternoon and evening.
Divide men's soup and women's soup.
Zhuli Kushe introduces Japanese Fenglu culture and allows you to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the courtyard.
There is a dressing room and bathroom, as well as a dry steaming room.
Rinse your body first, and then soak it in the soup. It feels very original. My daughter likes it very much and said that it is so comfortable that she doesn't want to leave.
A child who carefully read the instructions for soup soup.
You can go out for a walk after soaking.
Next to it is the Fangsheng Bridge, next to it is a cruise ship, and there is also a rowing club. There is a lot of food to eat.
In fact, you can also play the Fangsheng Bridge.
The main attractions in Zhujiajiao include City God Temple, Daqing Post Office, Yuanjin Zen Temple, Xuezhi Garden, Yixian Street, etc.
Yuanjin Zen Temple and Chenghuang Temple are currently under renovation, so they are not open. The rest are still open, and those who are interested can visit.
Every time I go to the water town, I take a boat, but this time I don't take a ride. I just take a stroll along the river because I want to take photos.
Taking all kinds of patting and patting, Zhujiajiao is actually like other water towns, with many fork roads. As you walk, you don't know where you go.
There is a lot to eat here, so I don't have to worry about eating all the way, especially the A-Po rice dumplings here are very famous. You must eat the series when you come. In addition, the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, and all rice dumplings are very popular, and their rice dumplings are all freshly made. The ingredients can be seen, and the meat is super large.
There is also a specialty called smoked silk, which is spread in Qingpu and is hardly seen anywhere else, so if you come, you can try it.
Food that only locals know.
In the evening, it is recommended to go to Fangsheng Bridge to have a panoramic view, because the sunset is really beautiful.
I had a dinner on the terrace of Xuanheli Boutique Hotel in the evening. I also had to have a romantic atmosphere when taking my baby out.
The terrace is a small garden with hydrangea flowers in full bloom during the season.
This is the highest viewing point in the ancient town.
Open a bottle of sparkling wine, have a candlelit dinner, and express very satisfied with someone's arrangements.
After eating, you can visit the night market. It has just opened. The special rice wine drinks here, of course, have almost no alcohol. They taste better if they are chilled. There are also various specialties and handmade products.
The night view is also beautiful.
Get a good rest at night.
DAY2
Hotel-Ancient Town
When I woke up the next day, the hotel breakfast was on the second floor. Each room was guided by someone, with a sign written, and it was separated separately. It was still a set meal.
There are salmon and Oden cooking, both of which I like.
Unexpectedly, there were more people on Sundays than on Saturdays, so we changed the direction of Yuanjin Zen Temple. Sure enough, the number of people was not only half less. Experience tells us that traveling and occasionally walking the right path with the public can also have some experience.
Look here. This is the tranquility that a water town should have.
There are also many shops near the river with all kinds of food. According to Shanghai prices, it is normal. They occupy a good seat and can sit all afternoon.
None of the styles rented here are very good-looking. If you like to wear them, it is recommended to bring your own for photos.
I really envy the residents of the ancient town. The two-day journey ended quickly.
Wait until the Dragon Boat Festival before traveling.
