Lu Xun's former residence in Shaoxing is the only existing place where Lu Xun once lived. The former residence was built during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. After many renovations and expansions, it has become a typical Jiangnan courtyard-style building. There are four entrances to the former residence, including a living room, study, bedroom, dining room, kitchen and other rooms. It also preserves many historical relics such as furniture, books, and cultural relics from the time when Lu Xun lived there. #Mainland China Attractions

On weekends, it only takes 20 minutes by high-speed train from Hangzhou to Shaoxing Check-in route 👉Lu Xun's hometown 👉Lu Xun Memorial Hall 👉Chen Garden 👉Cangqiao Street 👉 The garden of Shenyuan is very quiet. In summer, the breeze is gentle and the lotus flowers are in full bloom. It feels like traveling back to ancient times. I like this coffee shop very much ☕️Recommend it to everyone. The taste is good

1. Keyan Scenic Area (Photos 1–10): This massive rock, larger at the top than the bottom, is a marvel left by quarry workers 1,800 years ago. Its center of gravity lies perfectly on a vertical line, allowing it to stand for millennia. After the quarry, take a hand-rowed boat for a leisurely cruise on Mirror Lake, then stroll along the ancient towpath on Jian Lake. Returning from Mirror Lake, skip the painting boat and take the road across the small bridge. The vibrant February orchids, lush trees, and tranquil surroundings create a refreshing atmosphere. Finally, pass through Lu Town, with its charming bridges and canals, to complete the tour. 2. Luxun Former Residence (Photos 11–12): This grand residence showcases classic Jiangnan architecture. Luxun-related attractions are free, but expect long queues at other sites on weekends. 3. Dayu Mausoleum (Photos 13–16): Pink peach blossoms and green willows against the azure sky create a picturesque scene. The "Eye of Time" in the Dayu Memorial Hall is spectacular when sunlight shines directly at noon. Unfortunately, we arrived early and only saw the light and shadow on the bronze wall. 4. East Lake (Photos 17–20): A bustling yet pleasant lakeside area with beautiful scenery.

😳Since you are here, I will take you to a different niche check-in spot Take a walk on the stone bridge on the Ang Sang Lake, take a ride on the black-sailed boat on the East Lake, visit the former residence of Mr. Li, and finally try the special snacks. Are you sure you don’t want to visit Shaoxing like this? [Shy] 📍Location: Shaoxing, Zhejiang 🚄Transportation: High-speed rail direct to Shaoxing North Station 🗺Route: Yangyang Tea Lake (ang sang) → East Lake → Shaoxing Ancient City (the hometown of the sage of calligraphy, the former residence of Lu Xun, Cangqiao Street), please refer to P10 💰Expense: Tickets HKD90, taxi HKD105, snacks HKD41, total HKD236 [Idea] Now is the time to take out your notebook↓ 🚕As usual, let's talk about transportation first: Shaoxing North Station is located in the city. There are public transportation and you can also take a taxi. It's very convenient to take a taxi for only a few dozen yuan. Let's focus on the taxi location to Ang Sang Lake 📍Ang Sang Lake Bitang ❗️I made a strategy and planned the route map P10 in advance, so that I can play all the routes without taking a detour. 1️⃣Ang Sang Tea Lake (Ang Sang) P3 4 5 6 I can't type these two words, you can find them by typing Angsang Lake. This is a large aquaculture lake, I don't know what's raised here [Shy], you can cross the entire lake by walking on the stone bridge in the lake, spend an hour here walking and stopping, taking beautiful photos, the pace is very slow and very suitable for young people lying down [Salute] 2️⃣ East Lake Scenic Area P7 Next, we took a taxi to the East Lake Scenic Area. It used to be a quarry, no wonder there are cliffs. We took a ride on a black-sailed boat and felt the straight stone mountain. When we got tired of the boat, we climbed up. The mountain road was very high, steep and exciting. We spent 2 hours here. ❗️Oh, by the way, the entrance fee to the scenic spot is HKD50, and the boat ride is HKD40, right?🤔 3️⃣ Shaoxing Ancient City (Hometown of the Sage of Calligraphy, Former Residence of Lu Xun, Cangqiao Street) The first thing to do when arriving in the ancient city is to eat‼ ️ Follow the order of "Sage of Calligraphy" → "Lu Xun's Former Residence" → "Cangqiao Street". This order is just enough to complete a circle ⭕ You can visit all of them without missing any [Cheers]. "Sage of Calligraphy" and "Cangqiao" are more ancient and beautiful, while "Lu Xun's Former Residence" is more commercial [Smart]. Don't forget to eat snacks such as stinky tofu, noodle cakes, shredded radish cakes, and rice wine milk tea. I have to complain that rice wine milk tea is nothing special, except that milk tea has a strong taste of wine. When looking for a snack stand, it must be a shop run by grandpa and grandma, so it is authentic and delicious [Askance] 😳Finally, let me tell you about my feelings I went to Shaoxing mainly to visit Angsang Lake and East Lake. The scenery of these two places is very unique and worth visiting. Recommended [Tiptop] The feeling of the ancient town is similar to most other ancient towns. I guess I am tired of the aesthetics and don’t think it is that beautiful. But I still want to go and see the gentleman. It’s better to light a cigarette for him. There are too many people, so I just took a random photo. P11[Incapable] Well, that’s all for this sharing. I hope you like it. Bye~
