Obviously, there are few fishing boats. Why is Shaoxing called "Paradise Water City"?

Because this is a small city with rivers and lakes, it is meaningless to say how many fishing boats there are. Shaoxing is located in the south wing of the Yangtze River Delta, northeast of Zhejiang Province and west of Qiantang River. It is a famous historical and cultural city in China. It is famous for its rich cultural landscape, beautiful water towns and charming customs. As early as the Neolithic Age, there were human footprints. More than 4,000 years ago, Dayu came to Miaoshan from the East to control water. He summoned the governor and rewarded them for their achievements. Miaoshan was renamed Huijishan (accounting significance).

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Gou Jian, King of Yue, established this place here. He tried his best to revive the country and once became the cultural center of eastern China. During the Southern Song Dynasty, Yue became the capital twice. In the fourth year of Jian 'an (1 130), Zhao Gou, Song Gaozong, took the meaning of "Shaoxing", which means that Yue was promoted to Shaoxing, and the following year was changed to the first year of Shaoxing, hence the name Shaoxing. The beauty of Shaoxing lies in its soft water. This area is densely covered with rivers and many lakes. There are more than 90 miles of rivers in the territory, mainly including the E River, Puyang River and Jianhu River system.

It is famous at home and abroad as a "water village". It is a typical small city in Jiangnan water town. The whole city layout of Shaoxing takes rivers as the skeleton, along the rivers on the streets, forming a * * * pattern of one river and one road and one river and two roads, with rivers but no wealth. A river is a road and a bridge is a continuation of the road. The dense river network has created more than 0/0000 bridges with different shapes and consistent styles in Shaoxing/KLOC. It has the reputation of "Bridge Village".

The most famous bridges are the figure-of-eight bridge and the tracker road. The figure-of-eight bridge is a stone bridge in the Song Dynasty, and its shape is very beautiful. Although it has been eroded by wind and rain for more than 80 years, the bridge is still strong. This is a rare and important physical example in the history of ancient bridges in China. It is also a passage for ancient people to drive ships and transport goods. It runs through Shaoxing from east to west. Located on the Xixing Canal, it is a miracle on the Xiaoshao River. It can be called a unique water town in Jiangnan. Tracker Road is about 5 kilometers long and spans dozens of colored stone bridges, forming a * * * style.
