Description
Discover the ancient water town of Zhujiajiao on a private day trip from Shanghai. Dress in traditional Hanfu, learn calligraphy, and enjoy a boat ride through the canals.
Begin your day with a pickup from your hotel in Shanghai and head to Zhujiajiao, a water town often referred to as the "Venice of the East."
Once there, immerse yourself in the town's rich history and culture. Start with a Hanfu photography session. Choose from authentic traditional costumes in Han, Tang, or Qing dynasty styles, and receive professional makeup and hairstyling. Then, with a professional photographer, explore the most picturesque corners of Zhujiajiao, capturing stunning photos on stone bridges and in serene gardens.
Next, delve into the art of Chinese calligraphy. In a quiet studio, learn from a local calligraphy teacher how to hold the brush, apply ink, and understand the meaning behind each stroke. Practice on rice paper and take home your own handwritten Chinese characters as a unique souvenir.
Finally, take a traditional rowing boat along the canals. Glide past historic homes, under stone bridges, and into the heart of the ancient town. Listen to the gentle creaking of the oars and the soft lapping of the water against the stone walls, experiencing Zhujiajiao as locals have for centuries.
