Pingjiang Road (Best visited during the day)

  1. Perfect for listening to pingtan—experience the soothing sounds of Master Wu! Order a cup of tea and enjoy the performance in peace; the gentle Wu dialect and melodic tones are a must-see.
  2. Great for taking ancient-style photos—there are many costume shops along the way, and the picturesque architecture with white walls and black tiles, along with small bridges and flowing water, is perfect for photos.

Shantang Street (Best in the evening)

  1. Boat rides available—take a 30-minute round trip to appreciate the scenery on both sides; it's definitely worth it.
  2. Ideal for night views—lanterns illuminate the street at night, creating a magical atmosphere; a night boat ride offers a unique experience.
  3. Great for ancient-style photos—similar to Pingjiang Road.

Guanqian Street
