Upon arrival, you will start your tour with the Jiangnan Hundred Beds Museum: the first museum in China to collect and exhibit ancient beds of the Jiangnan region. It holds dozens of examples of finely crafted beds from the Ming and Qing dynasties to modern times. With exquisite design and workmanship, these are more than items of furniture, but excellently-preserved examples of Chinese folk art.

Next, visit the Folk Custom Show Room. This museum displays artifacts used in festivals and celebrations by local people over the centuries.

Then move on to Sanbai Wine Workshop. This is one of the areas most famous breweries, dating back to the Ming Dynasty. Here you will have a chance to learn about – and taste – one of the world’s finest rice wines.

After a Chinese lunch at a local restaurant, engage yourself in a unique display of Chinese performing arts - the shadow play show. This is an exceptional storytelling experience as the characters are handmade leather puppets behind a screen with a cast light upon them forming silhouettes. Accompanied by Chinese traditional instruments, such as the erhu and the flute, shadow play is a universally renowned Chinese cultural spectacle. 

Finally no visit to a water town will be complete without taking a boat ride (optional) down the river. Board a rowboat and relax as you enjoy the sights of the old town and see people going about their daily lives. Float over the calm water and pass under picturesque stone bridges.

Free on your own for a while at the water town, you can explore the village’s other attractions: the Foliage Dyeing Workshop, Woodcarving Museum.....

Drive you back to Hangzhou and your tour ends.
