Overview

Discover Zhujiajiao, a classic Jiangnan water town about 50 km from downtown Shanghai. After your guide meets you in your hotel lobby, you’ll ride the Shanghai Metro together (fares included) for a smooth, local-style journey. You can upgrade to a private charter vehicle as an after-booking add-on for faster transfers and flexible timing.

Visit Fangsheng Bridge—the town’s most iconic stone arch—offers postcard views of boats gliding beneath. Step into Kezhi Garden (ticket included), an elegant complex of pavilions. Then board a covered wooden boat (ticket included) and drift along narrow canals as shopfronts, teahouses, and riverside homes unfold at a gentle pace.

Pause for a local specialty lunch（at your own cost) at a spot hand-picked by your guide—river fish, seasonal bamboo shoots, hand-pulled noodles, or xiaolongbao.

If you love evening ambience, you may choose an afternoon departure to enjoy twilight and night views: perfect for photos.
