Tongxiang | I prefer this less-known ancient town over the famous Wuzhen

Tongxiang, also known as Chrysanthemum Town, is located in the heart of the Hangjiahu Plain, a small county town in Jiaxing. It is different from the traditional water towns in the south of the Yangtze River, with its unique elegance, it strides at the forefront of the new century. The renowned 'Wuzhen Theatre Festival' is held in Wuzhen, Tongxiang, attracting countless visitors to linger on. Located in the 'Number One Granary of the South of the Yangtze River', Tongxiang's flour-based dishes shine brightly. Walking on the streets, lamb noodles are definitely the top choice. Many gourmets from the surrounding areas drive hundreds of kilometers every weekend just to witness its charm. If you choose to come to Tongxiang, Aqiu thinks the weekend is a good time. Start with noodles, follow with a pot, and then stroll all the way to Puyuan, buy a local 'Youdun', one is enough to fill you up. -
