Because they have heard "If you miss a night, and Xitang Xitang the morning, it means not really been Xitang," so and the BF decided to stay one night Xitang. Ctrip no Xitang hotel for the scheduled, so the www.xitang.com.cn View the hotel introduced originally planned to stay Xitang Holiday Inn, but unfortunately had been scheduled three days in advance to all fully booked, plus it is a little distance away from the Xitang Therefore, to give up. Revised the Xitang hotels, 170 yuan a large bed rooms.
February 28 morning, sat 9:50 Meilong the K823 times, arrived at 10:36 Jiashan station, a station called a taxi to Xitang. Provides the hotel owner had taken care of 20 yuan by taxi can be to Xitang, but the car had stopped a 5,6 insisted on the need 25 yuan, so chose a fairly clean. Listening in the car the driver said, here are the general from the train station to Xitang 25 yuan (later found that the odometer is also off just 25 million), from Xitang back is 6 yuan a person, like light or stop waving the same , even if the ride is also dissatisfied with 4 people say 6 yuan per person. Motors 10 minutes to reach Xitang, after a holiday and found as expected from Xitang Xitang distant, there are about 1 km away.
Get off at check in, found that although quite Xitang hotel is relatively clean, but broken, at most, that is, the level of a hotel, it is some regret not set diagonally opposite the Grand Hotel Kai Xun. First read on the Internet to the main entrance of the photo kaixun think that the more land, but now with the Xitang is really impressive compared to many hotels, and of course, did not know inside how it is estimated that prices will not vary too much, it's not as good as comparably priced to kaixun bar.
Walked along the Post Road, Xu Tangqiao, even to the entrance of Xitang. Chose to go into the right-hand side of the trail, both sides are some small shops selling clothes, walked slowly to the town have a point of taste. Is noon, looking for a restaurant for dinner. After a security throughout the bridge and saw a great facade of "food on behalf of the Ming and Qing Dynasties", in which read, found the environment is good (especially near the water's seat, was a pity that most have been filled), but many people dish prices are too high; to move forward, see the "Datang people," people who feel that the environment can also be relatively small, combined with the now quite hungry, they entered. Point of caltrop fried soybeans, Chan Yi package wonton Laoya circle and pot. The first two dishes taste can be, but the serving is very slow; later Laoya pot bad, wonton know is the one to eat overnight and is re-added to cooked, the soup has no taste. Checkout time three dishes 80, together with management is also quite confusing, I really think it is unscrupulous business practices, it is recommended you stop to buy what.
Began to stroll after dinner, and along the North-gate Street, go forward, to the Wolong bridge turn around, walk back to Yongning Bridge, then along the West to move ahead. Many small spots along the road, such as Root Carving Museum of Art, South Vatan galleries, West Park, and the like are not included, since these places had heard nothing to see, and to purchase tickets for 20 yuan scenic spots (without any attraction) have to buy the tickets for the qualifications of small spots, so have to give up. Go get the famous stone skin, which is well-known are Xitang "thin strip of sky," said one meter wide and only a small alley, went to the pass are said to have 700-year-old Hyakuhisa Hall, the door has an enthusiastic old gentleman, together with Individual fees of 5 yuan (any joint ticket has nothing to do with the scenic area) so he entered. Courtyard, there are blocks of stone generals, heavy 200 kilograms, is the ancient martial arts with military commanders, and prior to a confused middle-aged man Biezuliaojin red face did not move up, changed into battle on BF even moved up, Haha, even I really feel proud and happy to say that:) you are interested can go try. In fact, apart from a beam outside the church Hyakuhisa really nothing to see, although there is no old man described in detail, you can not understand the subtlety of this beam, but that is, after all, wrote a 100 "shou" character, carving the path of the bat in a bat (blessing) from the heaven I like color a small gimmick is always worth the money 5.
In fact, should listen to before the Ctrip User said, pretending to stay coming to visit them enough. 80 rooms here for one night, if you want more personal feel of town atmosphere, then, is a good choice. But I do not recommend, first, there is no independent bathroom is very convenient, and second, the conditions are really worse, and they do not know whether public health, the third sound was very poor, yawn turn next to a body must also be clearly heard The.
Out of the stone skin get back to Yongning bridge, walk across the misty rain the next gallery, the whole town were out of style. Passing through the forest Gorgon famous cake, the enthusiasm of the boss's attitude is very good, gave us a very thick pile, and tastes very good; further forward is the famous "Xiangtangshan" the. Agile walked near the village of Tong, to see an old man is selling stinky tofu, came forward was about to buy, academics can not even say the elderly have all been sold out, catch an early tomorrow. We thought this is the line referred to in Shaoxing tofu spread bar. Was more than 4 pm and asked for the elderly share of the second day out of time, say 9:00. Fortunately, a lot of stinky tofu spread, so bought another home, stinky tofu, the taste is not bad; Youchang collapse of the malt cake, though tasty but the sweet side, it is estimated to eat one was enough.
In fact, that is, Xitang busiest bridges and Huanxiu Yongning bridges, some good attractions is the famous restaurant or food stalls is also focused on two bridges in this vicinity. So they walked back to Yongning Bridge, to the church direction. Yang F, passing through residential areas of water and saw the door "soul" of the stills decided to go take a look at ticket is 5 yuan, and the Hyakuhisa Church is the same as the sale of tickets alone. The hostess is very warm and good, let us usher you later to introduce her husband had. Her husband was a high school physics teacher, seems very honest part, upstairs, downstairs to visit with us while edge introduction. Personally think that this is still well worth the money 5, so the content is not specific to visit, said here, and leave you feeling his bar.
Yang F, in the water a small balcony on the side of the scene found a very good, so he came out, after a Wu bridge, walked nizhai side. At this point in the evening 5:00 to Xitang a lot more than a quiet afternoon, rain in the town gradually faded during the day's hustle and bustle, a sidelong Zhu Zhu willow grow in the water's edge, surrounded by a very quiet, occasionally can be heard several sweet birds , we are finally getting better, are beginning to see some very different town and afternoon taste.
More and more rain, and temperatures dropped a bit, we decided to take the umbrella back to the hotel more clothes on and a break. To wait until 6:30 and then come back, both sides of the shop has been closed quite a bit, go look inside the lines, have been able to see a red lanterns swaying in the darkness where Yingyingchuochao to the. Go Yongning when the bridge overlooking the entire Xitang not help lamenting the night Xitang indeed impressive.
BF had wanted to "Drunken Hibiscus" to eat dinner, but accidentally they are renovated, so we decided to go all praised the "ring-tang." And at noon the same as another point of fried water chestnut, and Chan Yi packet round, because it is really really good to eat. Water chestnut is fresh and tender, good flavor is memorable; like to try Fen Zhengrou Unfortunately, for some reason did not eat; also a point of netizens recommended salt and pepper pumpkin and soup fried clams son, taste very good. Objectively speaking. Deli Xiangtangshan is generally level, but the boss especially polite enthusiasm, vegetable is also very fair, coupled with the experiences of black at noon, so we have a very good impression of Xiangtangshan. In fact, such a small town Xitang able to eat, then, should such a cottage-style shops, it is proposed that we still go to shops, because these Xitang dishes are not so much the skills and pay attention to, and tastes are similar, So, go under the knife quickly than the big stores to shop Xiangtangshan so.
After dinner came to cruise ship terminal, see the virtue of the above 20 yuan, said the spots also joint ticket in order to buy 10 dollars FIT tickets, a little disappointed, but then maybe it is the last one boat between them and also sold to us. Tell us if charter is 80 yuan, at any time to go up by 12. FIT words are 10 yuan / person, ran it time 18:00,19:00,20:00. To wait until 8 o'clock on the boat, the rain is already very large, but the boat Xitang night feeling really good.
Swim ship was 8:30, which is the Xitang has largely do not see any people, because Yang F, and swim the afternoon nizhai feel good there, so heavy rain again looked in the past, it may be because it is not the relationship between the main road, red lanterns are not opened, only the name of flashlight walk, it is recommended, or in the evening, when we look at the best. Fortunately, the bridge side of the lantern Yongning still bright, surrounded by a lot of shops have closed down though, but "food on behalf of the Ming and Qing Dynasties," by water, there are still seats to see tourists in tea night, "Qiantang others" are still lit inside. Xitang at this time to say goodbye to the prosperity of the day, in the rain against the background under the extraordinarily quiet Ching, a significant Jiangnan of scenery and delicate.
The morning is 8:00, we should hurry before the experience of riding on a large number of tourists who come to town the dawn. Go Yongning Bridge, taste the famous Luc wonton and water, tofu, taste, how is no longer important, sitting on a small bench was short, tells us has been interesting to see. Misty rain along the corridor, walked User recommended thin strip of sky workshop, said they Fen Zhengrou best to eat, a very authentic taste turned out under a serious recommendation. And the BF one in his hand tells a praise, right up to yesterday afternoon, Shaoxing not eat tofu booth. Elderly people were already laid them out of the stalls, in the next, etc. have also been more than two of us. Yesterday, repeatedly stressed that his old stinky tofu is authentic, others are "fake," was some quite objectionable, when to eat, under a flat taste indeed, why tens of meters outside the stall of a middle-aged women (not a small grocery store of that home, but that a stinky tofu stand alone at home).
Xitang the morning does have taste, near strings of red lanterns floating in the smoke curl inside the distance of the boat floating on water waves in the layers of the pulp accompanied by creak giggle sound; river gurgling, leisurely stretching forward quietly, The most far seems to have some fog, so that the town appeared to have been a layer of mist hanging over. Unfortunately, we still came a little late, long after you see a tour group came in a mighty way, and Xitang hustle and bustle of day again.
Began to purchase, and bought a forest Gorgon Fruit Cake (10 yuan a box), and orange cake, "thin strip of sky workshop" and smoked green beans and a brown and can not help another person bought a Fenzheng Rou. Xu Tangqiao walked back to the time passing through best in the world face, go eat a bowl of 7 fish noodles money Shansi explosion, taste in general. Walked back to the hotel on the road and saw a tourist distribution center of the tourist routes, a question to start until 16:00. So back to the hotel check out, the road stopped in a taxi on the way up one another, two 12 yuan back to Jiashan railway station, bought a special 48 the train back to Shanghai (can not and do not have to buy in advance, because so many seats ), 8 yuan, 11:44 separating 12:30 back Meilong.
In general, Xitang is still well worth a go, in my sense of where better than in Zhouzhuang and Tongli. The locals are friendly and polite, Zhouzhuang is business too strong. In addition, snacks are really a lot, but small, not many things to be seen. Preferably in the afternoon, with a look at the attractions Guangyi Xia afternoon, then dinner in the evening cruise, the next morning to eat snacks and buy specialty.
