Rencently, Shunde Fengjian Watertown was rated as one of the demonstration zones by the Guangdong government that sets a good example for integrated development in culture and tourism.
With a nickname for “Guangdong Zhouzhuang Town”, the picturesque town serves as an important location for many television shows and films. The spot was on the third-round list this time, as issued by the Department of Culture and Tourism of Guangdong Province.

There are millions of reasons why we fall in love with Fengjian Watertown.

People have grown affection towards this place in these antique but cozy boats, in these running rivers, in these boxes of delicate snacks.

Here, you are immune from all the hustles and bustles in the city. Here is a place for you to energize yourself, and you might want to stay for a few days. 

Travelling through this gentle Lingnan water town, you are allowed a moment of peace and stillness to meditate.

If you are not sure where to go in Spring, this is a good choice for you.

After a rain flushed, the town became more fresh and comfortable.

At dusk, the mild lights give off an air of romance, looking real but fantastical…

Ancient trees, old houses, bluestone slabs, archways...everything indicates a touch of history.

The 500-year-old Jinshi (Imperial Scholars) Archway stands in memory of the 13 “Jinshis” from Fengjian, a place that breeds numerous talents.

On both sides of the alley are some stores selling Shunde snacks. Tourists are wondering around here.

Maybe this is what it feels like to have a peaceful life.

In recent years, Fengjian is are becoming increasingly popular among all sorts of tourists – country tour lovers, self-driving trip lovers and so on.
