Xitang town in Jiashan County is the next stop after 14 minutes.
Xitang has a tranquil natural environment with a densely knitted network of streams. Nine canals converge at the town, dividing it into eight zones, while numerous bridges connect the water town as a whole. The setting of the town is likened to nine dragons holding a jewel with wind blowing from all directions. Many well-preserved buildings with high architectural value can be found here. Taking a boat trip through the town, the special ambience of its typical architecture and picturesque natural scenery will surely create unforgettable memories.
Dayun town with hot springs beside Xitang is another popular choice for tourists. The planned international hot spring resort will offer visitors a fantastic place for a hot bath.
