西塘古镇
Xitang Ancient Town
Xitang suits a leisurely route linking waterways, stone bridges, lanes and waterside covered walkways. Its charm lies in the scale of its streets and life beside the water, not in checking off as many buildings as possible. Morning and evening light have different qualities, and night visits differ from daytime venue visits. Begin along a main waterway, then choose courtyards or exhibitions according to access. Lighting, shops and water levels in reference photographs reflect the time they were taken.
