Shaoxing, not as famous as Suzhou and Hangzhou, is a low-key ancient city in Jiangnan. However, it retains many water towns and streets with Jiangnan charm, either hidden in bustling markets or in a corner. It also lacks the hustle and bustle of the six ancient towns in Jiangnan, making it appear quiet and artistic. Mr. Muxin once said: The boneless Jiangnan is not only Suzhou, but also Shaoxing.

Having been to Suzhou and Hangzhou, I always feel that there is something missing in that kind of Jiangnan. It wasn't until I met Shaoxing that I realized that the Jiangnan in my dreams and mind was just like Shaoxing? This old city with a history of over 2500 years has both the spirit of time and the charm of time.

Shaoxing is a tourist city with unique Jiangnan water town culture and ecology. It is a unique presence in Jiangnan. It not only has small bridges, flowing water, and homes, but also abundant mountains, waterfalls, and Buddhist cultural resources. Many people do not know that Shaoxing also has the "number one Buddha in Jiangnan", right?

If I didn't come to Shaoxing, I wouldn't know that it has such a strong Jiangnan water town characteristic. If I didn't come to Shaoxing, I wouldn't know that Shaoxing is also a city of delicious food. If I didn't come to Shaoxing, I would miss out on the best Jiangnan.

Shaoxing is a museum without walls, with things worth reading in every corner. When you come to Shaoxing, all your fantasies about Jiangnan have a source. An old street, a covered boat, a bowl of yellow wine, and an ancient bridge can all be your reasons to go to Shaoxing.

Entering Shaoxing as the "Treasure of Town"

Some people say that walking into the hometown of Lu Xun is like walking into the "treasure of Shaoxing". As a tourist attraction of Shaoxing, Lu Xun's hometown is one of the must visit destinations for Shaoxing tourism. It is the most well preserved historical block in the city, with the most cultural connotations and classic water city style;

The historical district of Lu Xun's hometown is not very long, but it has the style of an ancient water town in Jiangnan.
Can you imagine when you were a child learning from Lu Xun, from Baicaoyuan to Sanwei Bookstore, there was a feeling of entering the "full text" that you had memorized every minute, but now you are immersed in it. What kind of feeling is it? Only by stepping on this land can one truly appreciate the artistic conception in Mr. Lu Xun's writing.

The scenic area of Lu Xun's Hometown includes: Lu Xun's Ancestral Residence, Lu Xun's Former Residence, Sanwei Bookstore, Lu Xun Memorial Hall, etc. Here, you can spend half a day sightseeing. If you have extra time, take a canopies and shuttle through the water alleys to experience the atmosphere of the water town.

Little tips: Lu Xun's Hometown Scenic Spot is now open to the public free of charge. You can make an appointment on the official account of "Lu Xun's Hometown Scenic Spot" for visiting time.

Experience the charm and culture of Huangjiu

Shaoxing Huangjiu is renowned both domestically and internationally for its unique brewing conditions and excellent quality. When you come to Shaoxing, you must taste and appreciate the charm and culture of Huangjiu.

At the Chinese Huangjiu Museum, one can gain a deeper understanding of Huangjiu culture and taste various types of Huangjiu.
Shaoxing is truly the hometown of Chinese yellow wine. The museum has a wine history hall, a wine art hall, a 3D film and television hall, an underground wine cellar, and more, with rich and colorful content that is refreshing.

The China Huangjiu Museum, as the largest Huangjiu museum in China, is currently the only professional large-scale museum in China that showcases Chinese Huangjiu culture and history. The rich traditional cultural connotations and unique brewing and packaging techniques of Huangjiu are treasures of China's excellent traditional culture, and the Huangjiu Museum is still worth visiting.

The "originality" of "The Phoenix with a Fist Head"

Since we have already arrived in Shaoxing, how can we not go to Shenyuan? Shen Garden has a long history, with over 800 years of history. It is the only Song style garden among many classical gardens in Shaoxing that has been preserved to this day, also known as Shen's Garden. Many people come to Shen Garden, and besides admiring Song style gardens, the most attractive attraction to tourists is probably the footsteps of Song Dynasty literati who traveled on land in Shen Garden.

The opening hours of Shen Garden are divided into two sessions: day and night. During the day, the main focus is on the buildings inside the garden, while at night, Shen Garden is a bit more romantic than during the day. Here, you can see actors performing the love stories of Chai Tou Feng, Xinshuo Lu You, and Tang Wan in Shaoxing dialect, which makes people feel regretful and disappointed about the love between Lu You and Tang Wan.

During the day, tickets to Shen Garden are free and only require advance booking. The Shen Yuan Night in the evening requires a ticket of 80 yuan, and the performance will officially start at 7:40 pm. If it happens to be near the former residence of Lu Xun, you can come and visit it. As the "original" site of "The Phoenix with a Slit Head", it is unforgettable only when you hear its surroundings. Shen Yuan's poignant love has been passed down through the ages.

The organic and clever combination of landscape and culture

The scenic spots in Shaoxing are all known for their cultural heritage, making them great places for people to excel in. However, there are also good places to visit, such as Ke Yan. Ke Yan Scenic Area is located at the foot of Ke Mountain and has a history of over 1800 years.

The Keyan Scenic Area is mainly a scenic spot with the connotation of ancient Yue culture and the characteristics of ancient stone mining heritage scenery, integrating the water town customs, ancient stone mining heritage scenery, and mountain forest ecology of Shaoxing. It includes three major scenic spots: Keyan, Jianhu, and Luzhen.

I thought the three major scenic spots were far apart, but in fact, they are all located together. In the end, you can take a detour back to the starting point. The travel route of Keyan Scenic Area is very simple, and you can choose to start from Keyan: 1. Keyan Jianhu Luzhen; 2. Lu Town - Jianhu - Keyan, Jianhu requires sightseeing by boat or by boat. If you only admire Jianhu, then you need to walk from Keyan to Lu Town.

The Wupeng boat is a unique water transportation tool in Shaoxing. It relies on boatmen to paddle with their feet, using both hands and feet. The boat parades lightly on the lake surface. If the weather is not very sunny, it is still recommended to take the Wupeng boat to experience the scenery of the lake.

For the Keyan Scenic Area, there are two extremes in the opinions of those who have visited it. Those who like it still want to come back. In fact, no matter which scenic area it is, it is necessary to learn about it, otherwise it can only be a fleeting view. The stone culture of Keyan, the formation and function of cloud bones, the origin of Maitreya Buddha, and so on can all be deeply understood through the introduction of the tour guide.

Millennium Stone Buddha, Cloud Bone, Shaoxing Mother River Jian River, and the ancient town Lu Town, each attraction has its own unique charm. The organic and clever combination of landscape and culture endows the scenic area with rich cultural connotations and unique beauty. Each mountain, water, bridge, and pavilion here has a strong flavor of Jiangnan.

Ke Yan can be said to be a scenic spot with good cultural and natural scenery. Here, water surrounds the mountains, and the mountains surround the water, as if it were a natural ink painting. This is not far from the city center, so it is very suitable to learn about Shaoxing culture and leisure vacation.

Dongyoudou leads the day

If you don't come to Shaoxing, you wouldn't know that the Buddhist culture in Shaoxing is so profound. The Buddhist scenic spots in Shaoxing are also very classic, but not well-known to the public. In Shaoxing, there is a saying: "There is Potala in the west, and Dou leads the sky in the east," which refers to the Tiangong Scenic Area in Kuaiji Mountain.

The Kuaiji Mountain in Shaoxing is shrouded in clouds and mist all year round, like a dreamlike fairyland. It is one of the birthplaces of the Maitreya faith in China. When arriving at the Tiangong Scenic Area, many people choose Longhua Temple as their first stop, while we head straight to the Doudu Heavenly Palace. If we don't take aerial photos of the Doudu Heavenly Palace, we won't be able to feel its grandeur.

From bottom to top, Dou leads the Heavenly Palace as follows: Seven Treasure Walls, Heavenly Palace Inner Courtyard, and Purple Lotus. In the courtyard of the Heavenly Palace, there is the world's largest indoor seated Buddha - a 33 meter high statue of Maitreya with a heavenly crown, which is majestic and awe inspiring. There is also the exquisite carving of flying eaves and walls in the Heavenly Palace, and the eyebrows, eyes, and expressions of the characters are all shining with admiration. Remember to change into shoe covers when entering the inner courtyard of the Heavenly Palace.

Looking at Longhua Temple from the highest point of Dou Tuo Tian Gong, the entire architectural complex is built along the mountain, layered and magnificent. You should know that Longhua Temple is currently the largest single royal temple in China.

New skiing experience for all seasons

In Shaoxing, let's have a new experience of skiing all year round. You don't have to wait for winter or go to the north. You can ski to your heart's content in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai. This is the Shaoxing Qiaobo Ice and Snow World.

Shaoxing Qiaobo Ice and Snow World is the only sports venue in Zhejiang that can provide skiing throughout the year. Even in the scorching summer, you can enjoy the excitement of skiing and the fun of playing snow.
The ski resort has four facilities, including a children's play snow park, a snowboard park, a beginner's ski slope, and a mid to high level ski slope, which can meet the different needs of snowboard and double board enthusiasts.

The cost-effectiveness of Shaoxing Qiaobo Ice and Snow World is relatively high, with more than 4 hours of skiing time. The price of skiing includes rental fees for snowsuits, snowshoes, and snowboards, but does not include gloves. It is recommended to bring them with you, and you can also purchase them without them. For beginners, start learning from the double board first. Only by passing the exam can they get on the magic carpet, otherwise they can only walk up and down
If conditions permit, it is best to come before working days. At this time, not only are there fewer people, but the price is also cheap

Ticket: The price varies depending on the time of departure and can be purchased online

One of the Four Ancient Towns in Shaoxing

Among the many ancient towns in Shaoxing, there is often one town that is easily overlooked, which is Keqiao Ancient Town. Many people's impression of Keqiao Ancient Town is that it has not been renovated, but little do they know that in recent years, after protective repairs, Keqiao Ancient Town has undergone significant changes and revitalized.

The history of Keqiao Ancient Town is extremely long. As the birthplace of Keqiao's historical and cultural heritage, it has a history of nearly 2000 years. It is one of the four major ancient towns in Shaoxing and has its own unique side. In Keqiao Ancient Town, many shops are distributed along the river, and houses are often built by the water.

People walking upstream on the ground in Keqiao Ancient Town cannot feel the uniqueness of Keqiao Ancient Town. When taking photos with drones, it can be seen that Keqiao Ancient Town has completely formed a pattern of water in the water and water in the town. One river and two streets, boat docks, arcade commercial streets, small bridges, flowing water, and houses complement each other.

The Keqiao Ancient Town at night is even more lively and extraordinary, with various themed light shows highlighting the beauty of the dreamlike night town. The Keqiao Ancient Town during the day is poetic and picturesque, while the Keqiao Ancient Town at night is magnificent.

Chinese Torreya King

In Zhuji, Shaoxing, there is a Torreya Forest Park with an area of over 50000 acres, which houses 60% of the country's Torreya trees in terms of production. Chinese torreya is unfamiliar to many people, and it is also the first time I have heard of it. Chinese torreya is a specialty of Zhuji, and because the production of Chinese torreya is very small, Chinese torreya seeds are a relatively expensive nut.

There are over 25000 ancient Chinese torreya trees over 500 years old and over 2700 rare ancient Chinese torreya trees over a thousand years old in Xiangrui Forest Park. This time we headed straight to the King of Chinese Torreya, which is the core of global agricultural cultural heritage. Unfortunately, this is not the season for picking Chinese torreya trees, and we cannot see scenes of busy farming.

However, the Xiangrui Forest Park is located on a high mountain with an altitude of about 500 meters. The air here is very fresh, and the roads spiral upwards, scattered with quaint small mountain villages. The scenery along the way is truly worth visiting.

I miss you very much on the grassland

It can be said that the Zhuji Fangcaodi Resort has a great advantage in its location, adjacent to the Wuxie Scenic Area. It is nestled in the mountains, with a murmuring stream running through the hotel. Some say it is a one-stop destination for children, while others say it is a must-have place for family outings. With a variety of entertainment options such as farm picking and kayaking, it has become a weekend self driving resort for people in Shaoxing and Hangzhou.

Observing the Five Fold Waterfall

Before arriving in Shaoxing, I thought Shaoxing only had cultural and historical buildings. After arriving in Shaoxing, I realized that Shaoxing's tourism resources are rich and colorful, with many natural landscapes. The Zhuji Wuxie Scenic Area is definitely a treasure level tourist attraction.

Many people may not even know what kind of scenic area Wuxie Scenic Area is when they first hear about it. The so-called "xie" refers to a waterfall, with a 50% folded waterfall inside the scenic area, which is the biggest attraction of this scenic area. The scenery of Wuxie varies in each season. In summer, you can play with water, in autumn, you can see red leaves, and in early winter, you can see ginkgo. The scenery is very good. Compared to many waterfalls, although Wuxie Waterfall is not big, each has its own beauty.

After entering the Wuxie Scenic Area, you first need to take a boat through the Wuxie Lake at the dam pier, and then walk or take an electric car through the Taoyuan Scenic Area to reach the Wuxie Temple. Walking back, you can see the waterfall. Keep climbing along the edge of the waterfall, and the steps here are very steep. Be careful when climbing, from bottom to top, from the fifth to the first. Each waterfall has a different shape, and the fifth waterfall has a grand and spectacular water volume.

The Wuxie Scenic Area has a strong original ecological atmosphere and is a natural oxygen bar. After all, the natural scenery requires beauty without any embellishments. Each Wuxie has its own unique charm, and the mountain streams are cool and refreshing, making it suitable for both adults and children to visit. In fact, if you are traveling alone, I would recommend walking from top to bottom, which saves time and strength. However, you must pay attention to the time when you take a boat at the dock. After 4 pm, there will be no boats left, and when entering the scenic area, you can only choose to walk from bottom to top.

Shengzhou Yue Opera Town

After passing through Keqiao, Zhuji, and Xinchang in Shaoxing, and arriving in Shengzhou, you must come to the Yueju Town in Shengzhou for a walk. Yueju is one of the five major types of Chinese opera, originating in Shengzhou, Zhejiang, and is one of the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage. Yueju Town is built along the Yan River, with drama and landscape as its core. It is the first cultural and tourism town in China named after a theatrical genre.

Entering the ancient theater building, listening to the classic excerpts of Yue opera, and at the small town theater fan hall, professional theater teachers lead beginners to experience the infinite charm of traditional Chinese opera.

I originally thought that Yueju Town only listened to Yueju, but after visiting Yueju Town, I realized my shallowness. After entering Yueju Town, tourists can watch professional performances in the ancient theater, or experience the charm of Yueju up close through innovative forms such as Yueju flash mobs and Yueyin tumblers. Moreover, the facilities and equipment in Yueju Town are complete, with all kinds of food, drink, play, and accommodation available.

In the Yueju Town, there is a restaurant called "Shengzhou on the Tongue", with excellent environment and delicious dishes.

Millennium Ancient Temple - Dafo Temple

Many people know that there is a Leshan Giant Buddha Scenic Area in Sichuan, but they do not know that there is a big Buddhist temple in Xinchang, Shaoxing, which is more than 200 years earlier than the Leshan Giant Buddha Scenic Area. Xinchang Giant Buddhist Temple has a history of more than 1000 years, but few people know that it is not just a thousand year old temple in the ordinary sense, but a large area of mature tourism.

There are many tourist attractions available in Xinchang Grand Buddhist Temple, such as the famous Maitreya statue, the 5-storey Grand Buddha Hall, Shuanglin Grottoes, Thousand Buddha Courtyard, Shooting Village, Wooden Stone Forest Dinosaur Park, Natural Holy Land, Foshan Holy Land, Five Hundred Arhats Cave, Prajna Valley, Qiguang Temple and Southern Dynasties Ancient Temple. If you want to visit all of them, you can choose some of your favorite or classic ones to visit;

For example, the statue of Maitreya, carved from cliffs and cliffs, took 30 years to complete. The entire Buddha can be said to be the only remaining "old object" in the temple, with a history of more than 1600 years. It is the oldest and only early grotto Buddha in Jiangnan, known as the "largest Buddha in Jiangnan". This time, it is very regrettable. When we went there, it was being repaired and we did not see its true appearance. However, this is how the journey is, leaving a bit of regret. We will come again next time.

After watching the statue of Shi Maitreya, you can also visit Shediao Village, which used to be the filming base for CCTV's "Legend of the Condor Heroes". To the north of Shediao Village is the Wooden Fossil Dinosaur Park, which is the most precious ancient biological relic in Xinchang and worth a visit.

In Xinchang Dafo Temple, not only can you see the Stone Maitreya Buddha from a thousand years ago, as well as the rare Stone Sleeping Buddha in China, with an astonishing number of stone Buddha statues. You can also see waterfalls, climb suspended boardwalks, and so on. There are countless scenic spots and historical sites here, and it is definitely a good place worth visiting!

Shaoxing's new internet celebrity check-in location

Many people only know about Cangqiao Zhijie, but they don't know that there is also a museum with a strong artistic atmosphere hidden here - Xu Wei Art Museum;
Speaking of Xu Wei, many people may not know him. Xu Wei is a rare literary and artistic talent in Chinese history, and the founder of the Ivy League School of Painting. On the occasion of Xu Wei's 500th birthday, the Xu Wei Art Museum officially opened;

The Xuwei Art Museum is built between the communities enclosed by Cangqiao Zhijie, Renmin West Road, Jiefang South Road, and Houguan Lane. The black, white, and gray tones cleverly integrate the Xuwei Art Museum into the surrounding built environment.

The Xuwei Art Museum showcases the fusion of history and modernity in the conflict and dialogue between metal, glass, and stone, creating a pure, light, and exquisite black and white painting. Although the museum looks simple, it is not simple, giving people a full sense of art.
Nowadays, it has become a great place for young people to take photos, which can be said to be a new popular check-in spot in Shaoxing, and has also added a new cultural landmark to Shaoxing.

Address: No. 33 Houguan Lane, Yuecheng District, Shaoxing City
Opening hours: 9:00-16:30 from Tuesday to Sunday (closed every Monday),
Tip: The art museum will close from August 29, 2022, and the opening time will be notified separately;

An ideal place to savor the old charm of Shaoxing

If you ask me where is the most worthwhile place to visit in Shaoxing city, besides Lu Xun's hometown, I will not hesitate to answer: Cangqiao Zhijie;
Take a walk on Cangqiao Direct Street, and you will be greeted with the taste of Jiangnan Water Town everywhere. Small bridges, flowing water, homes, and Shaoxing's unique Tai Men, surrounded by the Huanshan River, have a more water town style,
The elderly who have lived here for a lifetime have set up a stall at their doorstep to make some handicrafts, amidst the hustle and bustle of the world and the hustle and bustle of the market.

Cangqiao Zhijie can be said to be an ideal choice for savoring the old charm of Shaoxing. Unlike the deliberate style of Wuzhen and the charming beauty of Xitang, it lacks some artificial carving, but has more ancient charm and memory. Although with the development of tourism, there have been more merchants on Cangqiao Street, there are still many locals living there, and the atmosphere of life is quite strong.

Moreover, the transportation of Cangqiao Direct Street is very convenient, with the southern side connecting to the scenic area of Lu Xun's hometown, the northern side connecting to Fushan and City Square, and the subway station City Square station is within reach.

From the street to the alley end, Cangqiao Direct Street is full of Shaoxing's specialty snacks. If you get tired from walking, just sit on the bridge and enjoy the evening breeze of Cangqiao,
This is the authentic life of Cangqiao Zhijie.

Eating and drinking in Shaoxing

1. Xianheng Hotel Restaurant

When it comes to the Xianheng Hotel in Shaoxing, almost everyone knows it. It is the most famous century old restaurant in Shaoxing, and many Shaoxing people invite their friends to come to the Xianheng Hotel restaurant to taste the authentic flavors of Shaoxing. The Xianheng Hotel restaurant, a time-honored restaurant, is very popular. The dining tables in the restaurant are all traditional Shaoxing Eight Immortals tables.

Most people who come to the restaurant of Xianheng Hotel will serve Ten Bowl Head. "Ten Bowl Head" is a dish used by Shaoxing people to entertain guests in the past. Ten dishes are served in ten bowls, symbolizing "perfection". Basically, it's Shaoxing Three Delicacies, Babaocai, Dongpo Braised Pork, Stinky tofu, and other dishes. If there are many people, you can order more and have a taste, which will have Shaoxing flavor.

Stinky tofu is one of the snacks you can't miss when you go to Shaoxing. It is fried until it is brown and crisp, and then drenched with chili oil.

2. Guyue Longshan Restaurant

Previously, I only knew that Guyue Longshan was a famous Huangjiu brand, and there used to be a restaurant. In Shaoxing, Guyue Longshan Restaurant is deeply loved by local and foreign tourists. The architecture is ancient and fragrant. Find a private room on the second floor by the window, open the window, and outside the window is a typical Jiangnan water town, with small bridges and flowing houses. Dishes of authentic Shaoxing cuisine are served, and a sip of loose Huangjiu is consumed, which is really pleasant.

Recommended dishes:
Shao San Xian: A signature dish of Shaoxing, it is a must order dish during Chinese New Year celebrations and banquets. It includes dishes such as shrimp, cabbage, pork belly, fish balls, etc. Fish balls are white, tender, soft, smooth, and delicious.
Meigan cai Shaorou: Meigan cai is salty and chewy, and streaky meat is fragrant but not greasy. If you order Meigan cai Shaorou, you can also order a small cake. This is the correct way to eat in Shaoxing. Shaoxing people like to call it Shaoxing Hamburg.
Deep fried Stinky tofu: its skin is crispy, and it is spicy and delicious with chili sauce.

Mouldy amaranth stems are known as the "stinkiest food in China". When eaten, they are steamed together with tofu, making them both salty and fragrant

There are also good choices such as oil braised Sanbao and Qiandao Lake fish head. The taste of Shaoxing cuisine is light, retaining the original flavor of the ingredients, as well as the unique freshness of Shaoxing, which is simply delicious.
Location: Next to the Chinese Huangjiu Museum
Per capita: 100, abundant and frugal per person

3. Treasure Hunt

It is said that Treasure Hunt is one of the first restaurants in the Shaoxing catering market to showcase the "Shaoxing cuisine" brand, dedicated to the inheritance and innovation of Shaoxing cuisine. It can be said that in Shaoxing, it is a popular, famous, and representative restaurant.

Recommended dishes: Top scorer roasted chicken, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside; Shaoxing drunken shrimp, with fresh and sweet shrimp meat and a unique taste; Shaoxing Sanxian, a signature dish of Shaoxing, is available in every household. The business in the Treasure Hunting Store is booming, with a small yellow wine popsicle offered at each table, and people will also taste Shaoxing's unique yellow wine halfway through.

4. Kong Yiji Restaurant

Do you still remember Kong Yiji described in Lu Xun's writings? Although everyone may have read Lu Xun's "Kong Yiji", not everyone has come to Kong Yiji's restaurant. On Cangqiao Zhijie, Treasure Hunt and Kong Yiji Restaurant are separated by the same road and open opposite the door. How can one not come to Kong Yiji after going to the treasure hunt?

Kong Yiji Restaurant is also a very down-to-earth Shaoxing restaurant. The dishes inside are all very homely, the portions are sufficient, the prices are reasonable, and you can also watch a play while eating. The dishes taste good, and we strongly recommend Tai Diao wine milk tea and osmanthus lotus root powder. If you leave this restaurant, you won't be able to eat them.

Regarding accommodation

1. Kaiyuan Mingdu Hotel:

On the first night of arriving in Shaoxing, I chose the Kaiyuan Mingdu Hotel. You should know that the Shaoxing Kaiyuan Mingdu Hotel is one of the iconic buildings in the urban area of Shaoxing. The location here is excellent, not far from famous scenic spots such as Lanting, Sanwei Bookstore, Shenyuan, and Donghu Scenic Area. What I love the most is its guest rooms. The spacious and stylish bathroom design in the guest rooms allows the exhausted body to relax in private space after a day of sightseeing.

2. Fengqiao College Kaiyuan Mingting Hotel:
Fengqiao College Kaiyuan Mingting Hotel is quite in line with the aesthetic preferences of young people. The hotel environment is first-class, the air is fresh, and each area is well planned. Due to the recent opening of the hotel, the facilities and equipment are relatively new, giving people a particularly comfortable feeling.

3. Xinchang Baiyun Mountain Villa

As the next morning's itinerary was to go to Dafo Temple, I chose the nearby Xinchang Baiyun Mountain Villa, which is located at the entrance of Dafo Temple and only takes 2 minutes to reach. The hotel is of an antique and classic style.

Transportation Guidelines

Train
Shaoxing has Shaoxing Station, Shaoxing North Station, Shaoxing East Station, and the distance between the North Station and Shaoxing Station from the urban area is relatively close, while the East Station is relatively far;
