The next morning, heading towards the old block of Baziqiao.

The Bazi Bridge and Guangning Bridge are 300 meters apart on the same river, both of which are old and mottled stone bridges. Along with the bridge, there is also a Catholic church and an old neighborhood with distinctive features of a water town.

More than one-third of the older generation of Shanghai residents are immigrants from the Ningbo Shaoxing area in eastern Zhejiang. Communicating with Shaoxing people in Shanghainese is effortless and sounds friendly, with no obstacles for both sides.

Shaoxing is not only rich in teachers, but also has a rich cultural heritage. Throughout history, there have been literary giants, chivalrous warriors, and technological masters. Nowadays, the protection of the old city centered around their hometown and ancient bridge seems to be quite good.

Where is your favorite place after a day's walk? The hometown of Wang Xizhi, a wealthy household, not only has many historical sites and stories, but also the storefronts on Xiaoshan Street within the hometown are still the same, selling local products and groceries, with a strong atmosphere of fireworks.

Donghu Lake is a famous scenic spot in Shaoxing, and it is very convenient to take a bus, which takes about half an hour to reach.

Being a big player in the entertainment industry, the scenery is also very beautiful, especially when you visit that place.

On the third morning, take a bus from the city center for about an hour and a half to reach Anchang Ancient Town. This is a well preserved ancient town located closer to the city center, where indigenous people still live today.

In the Shaoxing area where township enterprises grew wildly in the last century, it was fortunate to have preserved a millennium old town relatively intact.

Small bridges and flowing houses are similar to ancient towns in the Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai regions, but Anchang Ancient Town still has some characteristics: the corridor and shed are very long, which can be considered spectacular; There are few modern cafes and so on. Most of the merchants are small businesses in front of the shop and back of the shop, and the street sells Meigan cai with soy sauce, duck, soy sauce and meat; Still visible are the black felt hats and the laundry women from Hebu

But with the arrival of a bustling army of tourists and the departure of the elderly, it seems difficult to sustain.

Since the Tang Dynasty, the Xiaoshao Canal has gradually built winding waterways and stone bridges along the water and shore for boatmen to transport goods.

Over the years, the boatmen have retreated, only the trail bears witness.

I heard there is a Taiping Bridge, which is a relatively large famous bridge on the Xiaoshao Canal. I came out of Anchang Ancient Town at noon and took a taxi directly to search.

Baidu: Taiping Bridge is located on the Zhejiang East Ancient Canal in Ruanshe, Keqiao Street, Shaoxing County, Zhejiang Province. It is a multi span bridge that combines a stone arch bridge and a stone beam bridge. It was first built in the 48th year of the Wanli reign of the Ming Dynasty (1620) and rebuilt in the 8th year of the Xianfeng reign of the Qing Dynasty (1858). It is currently a provincial-level cultural relic protection unit.

Originally, there were not only ancient bridges and ancient fiber paths over there, but also stone bridges and gardens centered around Taiping Bridge.

I often hear Shaoxing people talk about Keqiao, and now when I'm looking for the ancient fiber path, I also want to take a look. An elderly man of the same age who was fishing was very enthusiastic when I asked for directions: Oh, when passing through the pedestrian street, the sound of ramming waves is like a thud! The night view of the wooden guy is beautiful.

An ancient town that has been extensively renovated and cleared of its original inhabitants.

It seems to be quite popular among young people, and many people are lazy and scattered by the river, drinking coffee, tea, and snacks.

Actually, this place is more famous for its textile industry. Here is the China Textile City and the International Textile Trading Center. No wonder there are many foreigners on the street. There are also many Xinjiang restaurants that offer halal cuisine.

When returning from Keqiao, a trail was discovered on Jianhu Lake near the hometown of Lu You. Get off immediately and admire carefully.

The existing slender path is so smooth and flat, indicating that it has been renovated with investment in recent years.

A friend commented on WeChat: It's not a narrow path, like a petty bourgeois style promenade.

Oh, polishing too much can only backfire.

Don't rush to the scenic spots today. Wake up early and wander around the old city area near the hotel.

The antique old streets and alleys are bustling with meat, fish, vegetables, and cooked food. The price is very cheap: fresh green fava beans cost ten yuan and three pounds; Greedy white cut lamb costs 75 yuan per kilogram

And pickled radishes, gourds

Gourd can be used as a vegetable, as my mom mentioned before.

The old wine of Gu Yue Long Mountain is very famous, actually using the name of the mountain in front of us. Fushan, Zhongshan, Wolong Mountain, and Gu Yuelong Mountain are all the names of this small mountain in various eras.

Climbing up the stairs, there are many famous attractions such as the King of Yue Terrace, King of Yue Palace, Wenzhong Tomb, Wanghai Tower, and cliff stone carvings. Along with the museum at the foot of the mountain, the story of King Goujian of Yue who lay on hard work and tasted courage is constantly being told, and a group of historical figures come to mind.

At one end of the mountain is the Shaoxing Museum.

Sure enough, the land is full of spirit and talented people. In Shaoxing, one should not only look at the old alleys, stone bridges, and winding paths of the ancient city, but also pay homage to great figures, tycoons, literary figures, and ancestors and martyrs.

Before the May Day rush, wave your hand and bid farewell to Shaoxing.
