A stone’s throw away from the hustle and bustle of Shanghai, one will find one of the oldest and best-protected water villages in China. Considering being a mere 25 kilometres away from the central business district of this metropole, many are still very much surprised about this hidden secret that is more than 400 years old and makes part of Shanghai’s city borders. We’re talking about Zhujiajiao: almost-painting-like scenery awaits, depicting meandering canals, small rivers and all created around the large Dian Shan Lake. This suburb of greater Shanghai covers approximate 47 square kilometres with stories, legends and tales that date back 1700 years. Within a full-day, the area known as ‘Pearl Stream’ will brighten up your day from beginning until the very end.
