Forget Suzhou and Hangzhou, Shaoxing is too beautiful! Shaoxing 2-Day 1-Night Essential Itinerary: Immerse yourself in the poetic charm of this water town, with a photo guide. Autumn in Jiangnan is not to be missed in Shaoxing! This city, known as a "museum without walls," can be thoroughly experienced in just two days. Follow the locals' recommended routes to avoid any disappointments. It's easy to explore on foot or by shared bike, and autumn is the perfect time to visit. Day 1: Follow in Lu Xun's Footsteps to Explore the Ancient City 1. Lu Xun's Former Residence: Free admission, open from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, located at 241 Lu Xun Middle Road, Yuecheng District. - When visiting Sanwei Study, look for the character "早" (early) that Lu Xun carved on the table. - The Hundred Herbs Garden is rich in autumn colors, with pomelo trees laden with fruit, creating a healing atmosphere. - It's recommended to make a reservation one day in advance through the "Shaoxing Culture and Tourism Group" WeChat official account, as there are fewer tourists at 8:00 AM. - The stone archway at the entrance is a great spot for taking photos. 2. Cangqiao Straight Street is open all day and is located in Cangqiao Straight Street, Yuecheng District. - This is a popular food street among locals. We recommend trying the yellow wine milk tea at Huijingxuan (priced at 20 yuan; you can take the container home as a souvenir). - For stinky tofu, we suggest the shop at the entrance of the old street. - The best time to visit is between 2 and 3 pm, when the sunlight filters through the old eaves, creating a beautiful scene. - There are unique attractions nearby, such as the Fanbaobei Wang Xizhi Ink-Washing Pond, where you can admire the thousand-year-old ink traces. - The light and shadow effects at Jiezhusi Temple are excellent around 4 pm. - The handmade paper fans at the cultural and creative shops are unique and worth seeing. Day Two: Experience a Journey Through the Picturesque Landscape of Jiangnan 1. Donghu Scenic Area: Entrance fee 50 yuan, open from 8 am to 4:30 pm, located in Donghu Town, Yuecheng District. - We highly recommend taking a traditional awning boat ride (priced at 80 yuan per boat) to enjoy the water-based stone forest scenery. - Wearing Hanfu (traditional Han clothing) creates excellent photo opportunities against the backdrop of red rocks and green water. - Head directly to the pier after entering the park to save queuing time. 2. Shen Garden Night: Daytime ticket 40 yuan, Nighttime ticket 138 yuan, located at 318 Luxun Middle Road, Yuecheng District. - Enjoy the ginkgo and maple leaves during the day, a limited-time autumn spectacle. - Don't miss the live-action performance "The Phoenix Hairpin" at night. - Hanfu rental is 50 yuan per set; makeup and hair services are available for an additional fee. Practical Tips: Transportation: Major attractions are concentrated in Yuecheng District; taxi fares are usually under 15 yuan. Accommodation: We recommend accommodation near Luxun Middle Road, with an average cost of about 150 yuan per person. Food: Xianheng Hotel is a must-visit; try the fennel beans and drunken crab. Autumn Outing Gear: Bring an oil-paper umbrella for excellent results in taking ancient-style photos. #ShaoxingTourism #ShaoxingExploration #ShaoxingTravelGuide #ShaoxingScenery

🍁Shaoxing November Avoidance Guide | My Honest Experience Compiled After Staying Up All Night – These Expenses Are Absolutely Unnecessary! Sisters! Just got back from Shaoxing, and I've compiled a super detailed guide based on my painful lessons learned 😭 November in Shaoxing is truly a love-hate relationship! If you're thinking of going, be sure to read this before you decide! 💰Budget Breakdown (2 days 1 night, 600 RMB per person) ▪️Transportation: High-speed rail ticket Hangzhou-Shaoxing North (20 RMB/person), taxi + bus within the city approximately 80 RMB ▪️Accommodation: Guesthouse near Lu Xun's Former Residence 280 RMB/night (140 RMB/person for two people) ▪️Entrance Fees: Lu Xun's Former Residence free (reservation required), East Lake 50 RMB, other smaller attractions total 60 RMB ▪️Food: Yellow wine popsicles + stinky tofu + Xunbaoji Restaurant, etc., approximately 150 RMB per day ▪️Avoid Scams: Boat rentals are charged per boat (85 RMB/boat, seats 4 people), don't be fooled into chartering a boat! 🍂Recommended Attractions (Red and Black List Warning) ✅ Must-Visit List - Lu Xun's Former Residence: Free but requires advance reservation! The plane trees in Baicao Garden are turning yellow, making for amazing photos. The desk with the character "早" (early) on it at Sanwei Study is so big you have to squeeze in to see it. - Donghu Scenic Area: The 50 yuan entrance fee is a bit pricey, but the awning boat ride is worth it! Paddling through the water tunnels is a unique experience, and the soft lighting after 3 pm makes for excellent photos. - Cangqiao Straight Street: Commercialized but full of local flavor! Huijingxuan Shaoxing Wine Milk Tea, 20 RMB/cup, with creamy mini fritters. ❌ Avoid these pitfalls: - Popular photo spots at Lu Xun's Hometown have queues of at least an hour; actually, the alleyways offer equally good photo opportunities. - Shen Garden's evening performance of "The Phoenix Hairpin" costs 40 RMB; the plot is drawn out, so it's better to visit the garden during the day. - Anchang Ancient Town has a lot of preserved meat hanging from the eaves, but the waterways are narrow, and the awning boats are prone to traffic jams, diminishing the experience. 🚶♀️ Route Planning (Lazy Person's Version) Day 1: Lu Xun's Hometown → Sanwei Study → Shen Garden → Cangqiao Straight Street (walkable throughout) Day 2: Donghu Awning Boat → Lu Xun's Hometown → Return Trip (20-minute taxi ride) ✨Hidden Activity: Rush to Bazhi Bridge at 7 AM! Morning mist + the sound of washing clothes instantly transports you to a Jiangnan ink painting. 🍜Food Review - Xianheng Hotel: Fennel beans + Taidiao wine set meal for 68 yuan, a must-try for Kong Yiji (a famous Chinese writer known for his eccentricities)! - Treasure Hunt: Drunken crab 48 yuan/each, fresh and flavorful, but the queue at night can be over an hour long. - Street Food: Yellow wine popsicles 5 yuan, rich and creamy; stinky tofu with sweet and spicy sauce is even more authentic! 💡Hard-War Advice 1. November has a large temperature difference between day and night! A light down jacket + comfortable shoes are essential for survival. 2. Reservations for attractions should be made through the "Shaoxing Municipal Culture and Tourism Group" WeChat official account; tickets may not be available on-site. 3. Trendy cafes cost 40+ yuan per person; it's better to sit at a roadside tea stall for 10 yuan and listen to Shaoxing opera. Summary: Shaoxing is suitable for those who enjoy a slow-paced, artistic lifestyle, but be aware of potential management issues! After all, as Lu Xun once said (not really): A true warrior dares to face the long queues of awning boats and the cold stinky tofu 😂 #AJourneyLikeASong #CityHumanitiesNotes #NicheDiscoverySociety
