Nanxun, Zhejiang🇨🇳 Timeless Beauty of China’s Water Village (4K UHD)
Nanxun Ancient Town(南浔古镇), nestled in the heart of the Yangtze River Delta in Zhejiang Province(浙江省), China(中国), is a splendid testament to the fusion of Chinese and Western cultures, a characteristic that sets it apart from other more traditional ancient towns in the country. With a history spanning over 750 years, Nanxun not only showcases the quintessential elements of Chinese heritage but also exhibits unique European architectural influences, making it a fascinating destination for both history buffs and casual tourists alike.
The beauty of Nanxun lies in its tranquil waterways, ancient bridges, and well-preserved mansions and gardens, which have absorbed influences from both Chinese and European architectural styles over the centuries. One of the town’s most iconic sites is the Little Lotus Garden(小莲庄), a masterpiece of classical Chinese garden design that seamlessly blends art, nature, and architecture. This garden exemplifies the sophisticated aesthetics of Ming(明) and Qing(清) dynasty elites, with its elegant pavilions, winding corridors, and lotus-filled ponds creating a serene ambiance.
The Baijian Lou(百间楼), a series of connected traditional houses stretching along the water’s edge, showcases the unique residential architecture of the region. These houses, characterized by their white walls and black tiles, reflect the simplicity and elegance of Jiangnan(江南) architectural style, while their interiors often reveal a blend of Eastern and Western decorative elements, a testament to the town’s prosperous silk trade with Europe in the 19th century.
Despite its rich history and cultural significance, Nanxun Ancient Town manages to retain a laid-back charm, free from the overwhelming crowds that characterize some of China’s more famous historical destinations. Its waterways offer peaceful boat rides, allowing visitors to appreciate the ancient architecture and the slow pace of life from a different perspective.

Que sabroso se sintió ese desplazamiento mixto, Equipo Duck; al inicio suavecito navegando en la gondola, me pareció subliminal el paso por el umbral de los puentes y luego contemplar las gondolas desde la cima del puente; ver 🤩 el perfécto círculo de los umbrales de los puentes formado entre la estructura y el reflejo en el agua, en perspectiva, admirable la serenidad del canal, los bonitos corredores, la aparición de los reciencazados y su séquito… eso fué ¡¡ increible !! Que coincidencia !! La entrada al complejo de edificiós del templo trasmitió muy buena vibra, los faroles flotando juiciosos sobre la pared, los arbolitos con su verde follaje semitumbados hacia el caudal..el sol 🌞 se veía cálido no intenso, dime una cosa ¿ ¿ durante el día se comportó así ( el sol ) ??? La ciudad bastante tranquila.- Muy buen logro Duck, todo estuvo Súper…!!!! Quedé como siempre..!!! ..Muy encantada !!!😊.
這個古鎮出了很多資助孫中山和蔣介石革命的鄉紳，還有一個私家莊園和藏書樓，跟其他古鎮的區別是，古鎮其實是開放式管理的，還有因為有絲綢商人在這個古鎮出生，仔細瀏覽的話，會看到有一些清朝時期的中西合璧的建築很精緻，南潯古鎮的歷史很傳奇，是中國江南絲綢的發源地，只是沒有太宣傳😂
Beautiful 👍 👍👍👍👍
Очень интересный канал. Каждое видео открывает что-то новое. Спасибо, успешного развития вашему каналу.
Fantastic sights. There is a binding between ancient and modern is excellent. We should take the greatness of the ancient time and should not give up modern technology. In this way a
village a town as well as a country can achieve its most
success. The canal the undisturbed boat journey the quietness can give peace in the mind of everyone. Most of all you should be praised for your hard work to show us the undiscovered nice and fantastic world.
Thanks a lot. Go ahead. Take care. (from lndia)
Last year my son and I have been to a village near Shaoxing,Zhejiang Province. It is so beautiful. We played bamboo raft there. I never rowed a bamboo raft before. We also have delicious food there. one stewed chicken from a local people.
