A Second Visit, A Thousand More Sparks: Wuzhen After Dark

#discoverchina #wuzhen Two months later, I returned to Wuzhen just for its legendary night views—and it remains the most breathtaking water town after dark in all of Jiangnan. Yes, the entrance fee is slightly pricey,but every yuan feels justified when the ancient canals ignite with reflections of silk lanterns, and stone bridges glow under carefully curated lighting. Wooden houses draped in gold and crimson hues cast dreamy ripples on the water, while indigo-dyed fabrics flutter like ghosts of the town’s textile past. I wandered for hours, sipping osmanthus wine from a street stall, utterly mesmerized. Some places charge for magic—Wuzhen delivers.
