Xitang Ancient Town. (Photo/people.cn)

Xitang Ancient Town is within 100 kilometers of Shanghai, Suzhou and Hangzhou. Crisscrossed by rivers, the town is representative of a typical water town in southeast China. Stone-paved lanes run between age-old dwellings with white walls and black tiles. Riverside corridors are connected into a 1,000-meter-long corridor that is covered by roofs to protect pedestrians from rain and sun. Long, serene alleys and corridors create charming and picturesque scenery that cannot be found in other water towns.
