Features: The Jiangnan region of Wu and Yue has long been renowned for its water-shaped landscapes, cultural richness, and vibrant traditions. What is astonishing is that it is not the cities, but the villages—specifically, the ancient villages of Wu and Yue—that perfectly embody these characteristics. Walking through the ancient villages of Wu and Yue is like wandering through a series of rural museums, where memories of the past and accumulated civilizations are vividly preserved. In the most breathtaking scenery, these memories and civilizations bloom suddenly, dazzling the eyes and stirring the soul. A good travel book is not only a great guide but also a faithful companion, leading you into a world of beautiful and wondrous sensations, and transforming itself into a partner as you explore the vast landscapes of China. A good travel book is also a splendid sight in itself, accompanying you as you roam the world and let your dreams take flight. Have you got one? This book covers 16 ancient villages in detail and provides brief introductions to 27 others, including a few in northern Fujian and southern Jiangsu. The scope of the book largely aligns with the ancient territory of Wu and Yue. The travel routes, train schedules, and other details mentioned in the book are mostly based on the author's personal experiences.
