Zhujiajiao Water Town
Located in the outskirts of Shanghai, Zhujiajiao is a charming water town with rivers criss-crossing the village and hundreds of ancient buildings stand at the banks. It was founded almost 1700 years ago, and became prosperous on the backs of its cloth and rice industry. There are still remains of historical sites such as rice and oil stores, which offer a glimpse of life in the old days.
Zhujiajiao Water Town is noted for its archaic water country scenery, idyllic, tranquil, and peaceful. The majority of its buildings date from the Ming and Qing Dynasties and are in truly remarkable condition. Several large gardens that are scattered around this ancient town offer charming alcoves in which one can just lie back, relax, and enjoy the peace and quiet. No visit to Shanghai is complete without visiting Zhujiajiao.
