Gaomenjing

Stroll along Gaomenjing and immerse yourself in the rare tranquility of a water town nestled within Shanghai's bustling metropolis. The meandering canal is flanked by classic Jiangnan-style houses with white walls and black tiles, adorned with weeping willows that add a touch of greenery—it's as if time slows down here. Perfect for an afternoon coffee while wandering the riverside, or rent a boat to admire this living ink painting from the water.
