Free 5A Scenic Spot | In Shaoxing, Spend a Day Exploring Lu Xun's Literary Map

Lu Xun's Former Residence is a historic district in Shaoxing city where the great writer Lu Xun spent his youth. The scenic area preserves many old buildings from that era, including the Hundred Herb Garden and Three-Flavor Study Room that appear in Chinese language textbooks. 💚Attraction Recommendations: 🌟Along the main street with its white walls and dark tile roofs, you can visit Lu Xun's Former Residence to see where he was born; explore the "Hundred Herb Garden" behind the house that was his childhood playground; or check out the "Three-Flavor Study Room" to see the desk young Lu Xun used for his studies. You can also visit "Xiangheng Hotel," take a photo with the "Kong Yiji" bronze statue, try some fennel seeds, enjoy a bowl of yellow rice wine, and experience the slow-paced Shaoxing lifestyle. 🌟Within the scenic area, you can also visit the ancestral mansion where Lu Xun's forebears lived, the "Scenic Garden" described in Lu Xun's writings, the memorial hall displaying Lu Xun's life story, and Changqing Temple where Lu Xun was once a nominal disciple during his childhood. 🌟If you're familiar with Lu Xun's works, you can visit the Tugu Shrine and Jingxiu Nunnery mentioned in "The True Story of Ah Q," and the "Hengji Pawnshop" mentioned in "Call to Arms," to experience the real architectural settings from his literature. This district isn't very long, but it captures the essence of a southern water town. Both sides of the street are lined with shops where you can try Shaoxing stinky tofu, or take a ride on a black-awning boat through the waterways to experience the atmosphere of this water town. 🕙Opening Hours: 08:30-21:00 🎫Admission: Free 📍Address: 241 Lu Xun Middle Road, Yuecheng District, Shaoxing
