Just got back from Huzhou, here's the truth

Everyone, Huzhou is a real treasure! It has both the gentleness of the Jiangnan water towns and the beauty of the landscape. The key is that there are fewer people and beautiful scenery, and the price/performance ratio is super high. This guide will take you to an immersive tour of Huzhou! I. Travel Route - Day 1: After arriving in Huzhou in the morning, go to Nanxun Ancient Town. Shuttle between the ancient bridges and streets of the ancient town, visit Jiayetang Library, Xiaolianzhuang and other attractions to feel the ancient charm of the ancient town. Taste the special delicacies of the ancient town at noon. In the afternoon, continue to stroll through the ancient town and enjoy the waterfront scenery of the Hundred Houses. Stay near Nanxun Ancient Town at night. - Day 2: Go to Mogan Mountain in the morning and visit Jianchi, Luhuadang Park, etc. The natural scenery of Mogan Mountain is especially charming from May to June, with shady green trees. Enjoy farm-style meals on the mountain at noon. In the afternoon, you can explore the characteristic B&B clusters of Mogan Mountain and experience the local B&B culture. Stay in a B&B on Mogan Mountain at night. - Day 3: Go to Taihu Longemont Paradise in the morning and visit the animal world or the Happy World. Have lunch in the park. In the afternoon, you can continue to play in the park or choose to take a walk by Taihu Lake to enjoy the scenery of Taihu Lake, and then prepare to return. II. Transportation Guide Huzhou has convenient transportation. You can take the high-speed train to Huzhou Station from outside the city. To go to Nanxun Ancient Town in the city, you can take the express bus from Huzhou East Bus Station. To go to Mogan Mountain, you can first go to Deqing County and then take a tourist bus or a carpool. You can take a bus or use an online car-hailing service to travel around the city. The bus basically covers the main areas, and the online car-hailing service is convenient and fast. III. Accommodation Recommendations There are many characteristic inns around Nanxun Ancient Town, which are quaint and can immerse you in the atmosphere of the ancient town, and the prices are relatively affordable. The B&Bs in Mogan Mountain are a major feature, with a variety of styles to choose from, from simple and modern to retro and pastoral, and you can also enjoy the tranquility and beauty of the mountains, but you need to book in advance during the peak season and the prices are higher. There are various accommodation options in the urban area of Huzhou, and hotels near the station and business district are convenient for travel and shopping. Huzhou is really a place you want to visit again and again. Both the natural scenery and the cultural history are intoxicating. Hurry up and arrange a trip!

Nanxun Ancient Town

Exploring Huzhou’s Nanxun Ancient Town was a pure nightscape dream 🌙✨ This riverside gem packs old-world charm with red lanterns swaying above quaint streets, and willow trees draping into peaceful canals. My favorite part? Nightfall, when soft lights glow on the timbered buildings and the whole place feels straight out of a storybook. Must-See Places in Nanxun Ancient Town No. 51, Renrui Road, Nanxun Town, Huzhou City (open all day, year-round!) 1. Canal-side Walks: Stroll under the lanterns along the rivers and catch reflections of willow branches and historic architecture for epic photos. 2. Old Street Row: Wander through preserved alleys lined with tea houses and small eateries—perfect for a late-night snack or a quiet cup of local flower tea. 3. Garden Courtyards: Peek into manor homes and courtyards, where modern and Ming/Qing dynasty aesthetics blend seamlessly. Travel Tips & Local Insights - Night Visit Pro Moves: The magic really starts after sunset, so time your walk for evening when locals come out to chill and everything looks Instagram-gorgeous. Lantern shots are a must! - Get Around: The ancient town is super walkable—don’t bother with taxis inside, just grab a bike or stroll by foot. - Food Recommendations: Hunt for lotus root snacks and try the slow-cooked Nanxun pork. Street stalls along the main canal row often have warm, authentic options. - Destination Hacks: No visa hassles for domestic visitors, and cashless pay (AliPay, WeChat Pay) works everywhere. Dress in layers—Huzhou nights can be humid and breezy. #NanxunAncientTown #HuzhouNights #ChinaTravel #WaterTown #tripcom
