Wuzhen

If you love the Jiangnan water town vibe, with little bridges, flowing canals and old-school houses, Wuzhen is definitely worth a visit! 🏮 What I love most is strolling along the riverside, hopping on a traditional wooden boat and enjoying the peaceful scenery. Come at night, when the red lanterns light up the canals, and the whole place feels extra magical. Perfect for photos too! 📸

First time visiting? No worries! I've put together this Wuzhen travel guide covering ticket prices, opening hours, must-visit spots, transport and hotels to help you plan your trip with ease. ✨

Anda pasti perlu melawat Wuzhen sekurang-kurangnya sekali seumur hidup! Ia secantik dalam filem, begitu romantis dan sangat menawan. Dan bandar ini sangat besar, anda boleh bersiar-siar dan masih tidak kehabisan tempat untuk dikunjungi dan mengambil gambar. Saya obses!

Kampung Wuzhen memang cantik, dan menaiki bot kecil itu 100% disyorkan, kerana ia membolehkan anda menghargai landskap kampung dari perspektif yang berbeza.

Wuzhen is open year-round, but Xizha and Dongzha have different opening hours. If you want to catch Xizha's beautiful night views, I'd suggest arriving in the afternoon so you have enough time to explore before the lanterns light up!

📍 Best Things to Do in Wuzhen

🏮 Xizha Scenic Area

Wuzhen

Xizha is a must-visit if it's your first time in Wuzhen! You'll find riverside streets, stone bridges, traditional houses and cute little shops to explore. Come during the day for lovely photos, then stay until evening to see the lanterns glowing over the canals. The night views are really something else! ✨

🌿 Dongzha Scenic Area

Wuzhen

Compared to Xizha, Dongzha has a more traditional, old-town feel. Think narrow stone-paved lanes, old houses and quiet canals that make you feel like you've stepped back in time. It's a nice spot to explore at a slower pace and discover more of Wuzhen's local culture.

🚣 Wuzhen Sculling Boat Ride

Wuzhen

You can't visit a water town without trying a traditional boat ride, right? 😆 Hop aboard a wooden boat and enjoy views of the old houses and stone bridges from the water. I'd especially recommend going around dusk, when the warm lights start reflecting on the canals. Such a lovely experience!

💙 Wuzhen Dye House

Wuzhen

Love taking photos? Don't miss the dye house! 💙 The rows of blue-and-white fabrics hanging on wooden frames make a beautiful backdrop for photos. It's also a great place to learn a little about traditional plant-dyeing techniques, so there's more to it than just snapping pictures.

📚 Zhaoming Academy

Wuzhen

If you need a break from the busy streets, pop by Zhaoming Academy for a quieter cultural stop. Its traditional architecture and peaceful atmosphere make it a lovely place to slow down, admire the details and learn more about Wuzhen's history. 📖

🎨 Mu Xin Art Museum

Wuzhen

Want something a little different from the traditional water town scenery? Check out Mu Xin Art Museum! Its modern, minimalist architecture stands out against the surrounding canals, making it interesting for both art lovers and architecture fans. Inside, you'll find exhibitions related to the artist and writer Mu Xin. 🎨

This stay exceeded my expectations. The front desk staff were friendly, and the check-in and check-out process was smooth. The room was clean and bright, the bathroom facilities were good, the mattress and pillows were very comfortable, and the soundproofing at night was excellent, ensuring a high quality of rest. The breakfast offered a wide selection, with hot dishes, pastries, and fruits available. The gym environment was decent. Overall, it met Hilton brand standards with meticulous and attentive service. I highly recommend staying here.

The hotel is located by the canal, and the front desk staff were very kind, proactively upgrading our room. The room was spacious, and the air conditioning was comfortable. It's very close to the Three Pagodas Park, and other attractions are just a short taxi ride away. On Saturday, there was a boat tour activity for just over 300 per person. Breakfast was almost half Western, half Chinese, with a decent variety of items that tasted alright. I particularly remember the fresh meat 'shaomai' (steamed dumplings), which were quite delicious. The waitstaff were also prompt in clearing tables. I saw an outdoor pool, long and narrow, with not many people swimming in it. Overall, it's a typical, decent five-star hotel.

As an international five-star brand, the hotel's facilities and services are excellent. The view from the executive floor is also great. It would be even better if the afternoon tea selection could be a bit richer. The staff are all very enthusiastic. There's a tall young lady in the executive lounge who was really nice; she saw we had a large group and reserved seats for us in advance. Jenny at the front desk was also very patient in answering all my questions during our stay. I'll definitely stay here again next time I'm in Jiaxing.

As a frequent guest of this corporate hotel, Jim and Angel always assist with the arrangements whenever I stay. This time, they assigned me a garden view room with a balcony. It's the closest near 5-star hotel to my company and features an internal park that's also open to the public. The price offers incredible value for money, the breakfast spread is extensive, there are two gyms, and the pool is quite lively. I also received two complimentary cookies, and they kindly packed one of my two breakfasts for takeaway.

It's also very convenient for exploring the city, and the experience was fantastic. Recommended.

Overall, the experience was quite good. The hotel is located about a 15-20 minute drive north of Jiaxing South Station. There are many hotels of similar caliber nearby, which probably means the location is pretty decent, haha. One minor detail is that the TV in the room doesn't support screen mirroring, you can only watch CCTV channels. However, this didn't significantly impact the stay. The higher floors are very quiet. Breakfast and the laundry room are on the 10th floor, which is very convenient, and the breakfast staff lady has an incredibly good service attitude 👍

Location was perfect for what I needed. The traffic around this area is very little so this contributes to a quiet area for a hotel. There are many restaurants, bars and convenience stores nearby. The hotel has a running machine and washing machines for the guests to use and the lobby is tastefully decorated with friendly and helpful staff (if you cannot speak Chinese then there will be a language barrier). The room, although small, is tastefully decorated with a king size bed and large TV. It also has a small sofa and table. The shower had adequate water pressure. The downsides were that the room was not well enough cleaned and I found lots of hairs on the floor in the room and in the shower area. Some of the wall coverings also could do with renewing as it looked a little dirty and scuffed.

Tucked away in Xiangjiadang, this garden-style resort hotel offers a tranquil escape from the bustling city, providing ultimate comfort. It's a fantastic choice for a short getaway in the Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai region! ✨ **Environment:** Built by the lake, with an open garden and a large lawn, the air is fresh, and the overall atmosphere is peaceful and quiet. It's very photogenic and truly feels like a vacation. **Rooms:** The rooms are spacious with balconies, comfortable bedding, and separate wet and dry areas in the bathroom. Hygiene is top-notch, and the lake view rooms offer amazing views. **Family-Friendly:** It features a standard children's playground and a heated swimming pool, making it easy to entertain kids. Both indoor and outdoor play areas are well-equipped, so kids can burn off energy without a fuss. **Dining:** The breakfast buffet offers a wide variety of options, combining Chinese and Western dishes. The taste is just average, but the restaurant overlooks the lake. **Minor Drawbacks:** The air conditioning performance is average. The location is a bit out of the way, with no bustling commercial areas nearby, making it ideal for a pure resort experience. **Summary:** This hotel offers excellent quality and a serene environment. It's a top choice for family vacations and pure relaxation. Self-driving is super convenient, and it's a great option to avoid crowds!

Ramada is a well-known hotel chain, and this location is great. It's close to Nanhu Avenue and right by Central Park, so the surroundings are really pleasant. The hotel is quite popular, with a high occupancy rate. The breakfast offers a good variety, even including jianbing (Chinese savory crepes), which is a nice touch. Now for the downsides. The hygiene really needs more attention. The housekeeping service was genuinely disappointing. This is the first hotel I've stayed in where the toilet paper ran out after just one use. It's also the first hotel where I found hair on the towels, and the first where the bedsheets were dirty. Seriously?!

This hotel is first-class in every aspect—decoration, service, environment, dining, rooms, and so much more. Most importantly, the price is incredibly affordable, offering unbeatable value for money. It completely outshines other hotels like the Sheraton, Grand Hyatt, and Shangri-La! A special shout-out must go to the front desk manager, Li Haosong. His warm hospitality and flawless English left a deep impression on the guests, making him truly deserving of praise.

I was incredibly satisfied with this hotel. I originally planned to stay one night but ended up extending it to three. The hotel itself is very comfortable, with good facilities and excellent service. Both the butler and the cleaning staff were very nice, and the front desk clerk and the sales guy were super friendly – kudos to them! The breakfast was also plentiful. Building 2 has a kids' play area, perfect for families with children – they'll be as happy as a mouse in a rice bin! It's super suitable for family trips. We stayed in Building 7, which was very quiet with great views, perfect for a relaxing, 'lie flat' vacation. Downstairs from our room was the ancient canal street, with many teahouses, cafes, dessert shops, handmade craft stores, and a few famous local restaurants. We tried 'Zhong Gu Yue' and 'Jiangnan Ming Zhuang', both of which were excellent. I highly recommend 'Lao Jia Xing Handmade Tangyuan' next to the Second Courtyard – their fresh meat tangyuan and sesame tangyuan are absolutely amazing; many people from Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai come specifically to eat them. This area feels more refined and upscale than the Moon River Scenic Area, which is about 700-800 meters away. It's perfectly suited for families and friends who want to unwind and just 'lie flat'. We'll definitely be back!

The key is that the service is very thoughtful and can meet my needs. It has drawn a complete end to the trip. The disadvantage is that the room equipment is a bit old.

💡 Wuzhen Travel Tips

💡 Travel Tips

✨ Practical Tips

Book Tickets in Advance

Check the ticket options for Xizha and Dongzha before your visit. If you plan to explore both scenic areas, compare individual and combined tickets, and confirm the entry date and ticket rules.

Make Time for the Night Views

Xizha looks especially beautiful after the lanterns light up. Consider arriving in the afternoon so you can explore the old streets, grab a bite and enjoy the evening scenery without rushing.

Wear Comfortable Shoes

Expect plenty of walking along stone paths, narrow lanes and bridges. Comfortable shoes will make exploring the water town much easier.

Plan Your Transport Ahead

Wuzhen doesn't have its own high-speed railway station, so you'll usually need to travel to Tongxiang Station and transfer to the scenic area. Check local transport schedules and your return arrangements in advance.

Book Your Stay Early

Want to enjoy the night views without rushing back? Consider staying overnight, especially within or near the scenic area. Book early for weekends and public holidays, and check the hotel's location and access arrangements before confirming.

📱 Quick Tip: Get Your eSIM Ready Before You Go!

Stay connected in Wuzhen to check maps, find local food, look up tickets and share your pretty canal photos! 📸 Get your China eSIM from Trip.com before departure, and remember to check your phone's compatibility so you're ready to go online when you arrive.
