It's hard to imagine that I found the feeling of celebrating Chinese New Year in my childhood in Wuzhen

As the New Year approaches, every place starts to put up lights and decorations. Having visited so many ancient towns, I found that only Wuzhen has that deep New Year charm that attracted me. Here, I experienced the New Year atmosphere of my childhood, with lion dances, street parades, making rice cakes, and so on, and took the opportunity to bring some New Year goods home. Tour sequence: Wucun - Longteng Water Market - Water Blessing Parade - Wuzhen Old Street - Scene Play - Old Street Fortune Parade - Long Street Dragon Feast - Zhaoming Lantern Gathering. Check-in spots: Wucun: A very strong New Year atmosphere with activities like making rice cakes, writing blessings, cutting paper-cuts, and more, including pig racing, finding the God of Roads, dragon and lion dances - all rich memories. Water Market: Enjoy morning tea, sit in a boat drifting among various New Year goods, with all kinds of goods waiting for everyone on the boat. There are also fortune gods and various NPCs interacting with everyone, full of vitality. Scene Play: Everyone gathers around laughing and watching the play, which is vividly performed, just like the outdoor movies of childhood, bringing everyone together for the festive spirit. Long Street Dragon Feast: Brothers and sisters from all over gather together, with the copper hot pot steaming, laughter filling the sky, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, celebrating New Year in Wuzhen is lively. Zhaoming Lantern Gathering: When the lights come on, you feel immediately transported back to ancient times, with all kinds of lanterns dazzling you, including the dragon lanterns unique to the Year of the Dragon, full of grandeur. Accommodation: You can choose to stay at the resort hotel on the dike inside the scenic area, which is very convenient with shuttle boats at the door. Warm tips: 1. The scenic area is very large, with many attractions to enjoy, so it is recommended to come early. 2. Wearing bright red clothes will make for better photos.
