Nanxiang Water Town

Nanxiang Town

Wow, it's my 5th time to spend the Golden Week in China!


(As a reminder - here's the first one)
As usual, I stayed in Shanghai and tried avoiding the crowds. Almost succeeded in that.
Vee is visiting me from Beijing, so we'v been doing loads of touristy things. Aside from going to the ocean, 1933, walking around Hongkou and eating out a lot, we went to Nanxiang water town today.
Nanxiang is still within Shanghai and easy to reach with line 11, but the vibe is completely different - looked like any small town in China and def didn't seem like a part of Shanghai. 
There are gorgeous canals, a food street, wonderful historic gardens and a Buddhist temple. I really enjoyed this trip and was pleasantly surprised, as I literally had never even heard of the place before yesterday.
