Misty rain and misty mist, pink walls and black tiles, murmuring water, Wu Nong whispering softly

For some reason, the water towns in Jiangnan have an irresistible attraction that can easily arouse people's longing without even realizing it.

Zhouzhuang, built near the water, can be said to be the starting point of the Chinese people's "water town dream".

As the earliest discovered ancient water town, Zhouzhuang has gone through more than 900 years of ups and downs.

The pink walls and black tiles washed by the rain, the creaking sound of rowing on a hand cranked boat, the tranquil and deep flowing water of a small bridge

The early autumn in Zhouzhuang is cool and humid, with night falling and the lanterns shining. The moonlight falls amidst the sound of oars and the shadows of the lamps, and the water waves create a misty cloud and smoke, outlining the hazy outline of the water town.

The dazzling lanterns of the Mid Autumn Festival have been lit up one after another, depicting the most magnificent picture in the night of Zhouzhuang, a water town. The long corridors on both sides are brightly lit, and a bay of river water is blue in the sky.

At night, Zhouzhuang appears more charming under the reflection of the lights, and the flower lights in the streets and alleys, as well as the lanterns in the square, are all beautiful scenery that cannot be missed. "Flowers compete for beauty, and" drizzle "weaves brocade. On the section from Fuhong Bridge to Zhenfeng Bridge in the ancient town, create a" Flower Lane "and" Rain Lane "light show, step by step painting. Strolling on the slate road, the combination of light and shadow tells romantic stories one by one.

Like dustless and bright as jade, the moonlight of Jiangnan is singing with oars. In the dazzling lights, why not sit on a hand rocking boat? The Jiangnan tune rings in the night, and the flower lanterns on both sides are arranged in rows, blending with pink walls and tiles, water alleys and bridges, and old streets and houses, melting into the simple water town life. To the ear is the music of silk, bamboo, and orchestral music, to the eye is the light of a myriad of colors and colors, intoxicated by the unique charm bestowed upon Zhou Zhuang by the art of lanterns and light and shadow technology.

Amidst the misty Jiangnan region, you can enjoy a night tour of Zhouzhuang, where fire trees and silver flowers never stop at night. Various lanterns blend the elegance of the ancient town, the tranquility of Jiangnan, the fun of water towns, and the poetry and paintings of Zhouzhuang, creating a brand new night scene. The traditional colored lights that can be seen everywhere showcase the rich characteristics of water towns, and the graceful scenery is pleasing to the eyes~

Not far from Zhouzhuang Ancient Town, there is a village called Xiangcun, where old houses with white walls and black tiles have been transformed into very distinctive homestays. The fields here have also been transformed into a venue for light shows.

In October, the autumn atmosphere in Xiangcun gradually intensifies, with persimmons hanging all over the branches, fruits quietly ripening, streams flowing quietly, dogs not barking, chickens not chirping, no tourists walking around, no bustling crowds, only the Mid Autumn Festival lanterns brightly lit up, red, pink, white, and yellow, clustered here and there. The flower lanterns are all composed of rural elements, showcasing agricultural scenes and local culture everywhere. Melons, fruits, vegetables, and frogs together perform a rural concerto, and the beautiful countryside is about to emerge in the night!

After watching the lanterns, I casually walked into the courtyard of Xiangcun. Decades ago, bicycles, old radios, sewing machines, mottled enamel jars, stone mills, old certificates... everything went through wind and frost, carrying the traces of heavy years and stories. They were placed quietly and poetically, told in silence, leading us back to the depths of our memories.

Qizhuang does not reject modernity. It decorates its ancient body in the most modern way. The kitchen, tea room, and bedroom all showcase the convenience of modern life to us in the most comfortable posture. So, we relaxed and relaxed like at our own home, without looking at the distant and simple scenery and objects outside.
