Three hills and a city of water: causeways string ten classic scenes — a World Cultural Landscape.
An Eastern Jin monastery and Five-Dynasties grottoes — the Ji Gong legend's home, incense for 1,700 years.
The pillow-water town perfected — Xizha nights and the Theatre Festival; “once visited, never left.”
The Guanyin bodhimanda — temples, beaches and sea sunrise in one island.
Republic-era villas and bamboo hideaways — birthplace of China's boutique-B&B movement, a summer refuge.
Lu Xun's hometown, Cangqiao Straight Street and yellow wine — a Jiangnan museum without walls.
Zhejiang is Jiangnan's source code: each West Lake scene is a Song lyric, Tiantai closes the Tang poetry road, and Xie Lingyun invented landscape poetry here. The best way to travel Zhejiang is slowly — an afternoon at a lakeside tea house beats ten checkmarks.
The other face is commercial DNA: Yiwu commodities, Wenzhou merchants, Wuzhen's internet conference — this province industrialized “something from nothing.” Wuzhen itself is the case study: a faded canal town reborn as a world theatre festival and living heritage sample.
Maritime Zhejiang is under-visited: Zhoushan is China's largest fishery — Shenjiamen night stalls sell seafood by the basin; after the September season opens, hairtail and swimming crabs are absurdly cheap. Mazu faith and fishermen's chants live on.
Zhejiang eats clean and fresh: Hangzhou's polish, Ningbo's raw seafood energy, Shaoxing's “stinky” and drunken extremes.
出发前最后确认的四件事:怎么穿、怎么住、怎么走、带什么回去。
