Zhouzhuang lies at the middle between Shanghai and Suzhou, is an ancient
town of Kunshan City, Jiangsu Province, where abounds with rivers and lakes. So
it is thought by many to be the best waterside town in China.
This ancient town
has a history of more than 900 years old with many houses built in the Ming and
Qing Dynasties. There are about 100 houses with courtyards, and 60 of them have
arch gateways made by carved bricks. With lakes on four sides, the beauty of
Zhouzhuang is specially to be found along the waterside lanes and around a
number of the stone bridges. A different vista at every turn can be found here.
All those make a visit most enjoyable.
Also, one can enjoy the fairyland
atmosphere of the evenings here when the myriad stars twinkle as though in
communication with the glittering lights.
