Wufangzhai is at the exit of South Lake Revolutionary Memorial Hall. I ordered classic zongzi and wontons. 14:00–14:30 Meiwan Street A commercial street with a water bus. There are many people, so you need to wait in line for a long time. The bus runs every hour. You can take it if you have enough time. 15:00–15:30 Yuexiu Market 💰15 A local snack street. I bought Xiaoliang corn juice and a big chicken leg. I think the corn juice is just so-so. I don't like the taste of corn products. The fried chicken leg is really delicious and crispy. 15:50–17:00 Zicheng Ruins Park + Catholic Church + Pingshan Park These three attractions are close to each other and not very big. You can visit them together. Zicheng Ruins Park: The site of Jiaxing Prefecture's government office. Catholic Church: A very beautiful church. You can take photos there. Pingshan Park: Located across the street from the back gate of Zicheng. A small mountain park with an altitude of only 15 meters. It's nice to stroll around. 17:15–18:00 Moon River Historical Block + Flower and Bird Market 💰25 Moon River Street has art exhibitions, a flower and bird market, and a zongzi museum. It's worth visiting. I bought two zongzi from Zhenzhenlaolao. They are said to be a specialty of Jiaxing. How can I not try them? 19:11–20:10 G1674 Jiaxing–Shanghai West 💰23 Many trains from Jiaxing to Shanghai depart from Jiaxing South, which is a bit far from the city center.
