Xitang Water Village

Xitang is located in Shanghai Economic Zone where the economy is comparatively developed in China at the junction of Jiangsu Province, Zhejiang Province and Shanghai Municipality, 90km due from Shanghai on the east, 110km off Hangzhou on the West, 85km far to Suzhou on the north and 9km away from Jiashan Town seat on the South.It is not only superior in geographic location, but also very convenient in water and land transportation, connecting 320 State Highway and Shanghai-Hangzhou-Ningbo Expressway on the south and meeting 318 State Highway on the north with Hangzhou-Shanghai Grade A railway passing though the boundary.

Xitang (2 hours drive from Shanghai) is level, densely distributed with rivers and has a very quiet natural environment. 9 rivers converge in this town,dividing it into 8 sections, but many bridges link this water town together.Inside the town,there are many well-preserved architectural groups constructed during the Ming and Qing dynasties,which boast a higher artistry and study value, thus being highlighted by the experts at home and abroad studying antique buildings.

Through a bird's-eye view of the whole town, green waves ripple everywhere and every family resides near water. In the morning, water flows beneath bridges, thin mist is like silk, pinkish walls on both banks stand tall and erect and tiled houses are reflected inversely in the water. In the evening, the setting sun shines slantwise, songs come from fishing boats, lamps flicker and the fragrance of wine drifts. The whole old town is like a poem and a picture.In thistown,people will feel that they are seemingly in an earthly paradise.It is hard to know that people exist in the picture or picture exists in the heart of people.
