Zhou Zhuang, China

Zhou Zhuang(周庄) , the ancient water village in China established over 900 years ago with many houses built in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Zhou Zhuang is located 37 miles west of Shanghai in Jiangsu Province, about 2hrs ride from Shanghai. The highlight of the visit was a boat tour along the canals. We even tipped the person who was rowing our boat for two songs.

Before proceed with our lunch, we strolled along the street for some shopping. I bought a beautiful silk Cheongsam with a reasonable price. At the certain hour, there is a chinese opera show on stage. erm...i don't interested.

Food wise, one of the most popular tourist products in this town seem to be the pork knuckle. we can even can buy the pork knuckle in valcum pack to share with family and friends. Besides that, there are a lot of small restaurants opened for lunch. Please do not superb service standard.

The small fish itself cost about RM25/pc. It's unique!
