Step into Nanxiang Old Town and be transported back centuries! Cobblestone streets and Ming-Qing architecture with upturned eaves preserve the charm of Jiangnan water towns. Don't miss the paper-thin Nanxiang soup dumplings paired with Longjing tea in ancient tea houses—pure authenticity! Stroll along canal bridges at sunset, and capture the pavilions' reflections in Tanyuan Garden, a less-crowded alternative to Suzhou-style gardens.
