When it comes to Jiangnan, where do you think of? GreenTourAsia shows you how to experience authentic Jiangnan. Don't hesitate; our services will win you over.

Private car transfers with experienced drivers to keep you safe, 4- and 5-star hotels to choose from, hassle-free ticket bookings, and any other needs, we can plan for you too. Just pack your bags and come unlock your Jiangnan journey. On day one, arrive in Hangzhou, and we'll take you to West Lake.

Take a boat to Three Pools Mirroring the Moon, view Xiaoying Isle from afar, pass by Leifeng Pagoda, and hear the legend of the White Snake. When night falls, head to Wulin Square to explore Hangzhou's bustling downtown. Dazzling lights and musical fountains dancing to the melody make it a must-visit hotspot for a Hangzhou night tour.

On day two, head to Shaoxing. First, visit Lu Xun's Hometown; walk through Hundred-Plant Garden and Sanwei Study described by the great writer, tracing scenes from your textbooks. Then go to Xianheng Tavern for a plate of fennel beans, the flavor Kong Yiji loved.

A few minutes' walk brings you to Shen Garden, where your guide shares the love story of Lu You and Tang Wan. Visit Guhe Pavilion, Mo Pool, and finally take a photo before the Phoenix Hairpin Stele to witness this thousand-year-old devotion. End the day at Anchang Ancient Town, experiencing life in a Jiangnan water town of small bridges and flowing water.

Strolling along the bluestone streets, the antique buildings tell the history of the place. On day three, first visit Keyan Scenic Area, where ancient Yue culture is still well preserved. The ice-caltrop-shaped Luzhu Qingyan rock and the awe-inspiring Tiangong Giant Buddha attract countless visitors eager to see these millennium-old wonders.

Finally, our journey winds down amid the everyday charm of Cangqiao Straight Street. Here, white walls and dark tiles line the way, Wupeng boats drift slowly along the river, and vendors' calls carry the warmth of the soft Wu dialect. The whole old street feels alive and welcoming.

Words and videos, however beautiful, can never replace experiencing it yourself. For 30 years, GreenTourAsia has accompanied countless travelers into the landscapes they dreamed of, earning rave reviews. We look forward to meeting you.
