<h2>【Xitang】 has a long history. It is one of the birthplaces of ancient Wuyue culture and one of the six ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River. It is a thousand-year-old water town of Wu local culture. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it was the border of Wu and Yue, and was known as "Wu Root and Yue Corner" and "Yue Corner Family". Xitang is one of the first batch of famous historical and cultural towns in China, and has been included in the preliminary list of China's World Cultural Heritage Protection by UNESCO. There are 250,000 square meters of well-preserved Ming and Qing architectural complexes in the old town area. The scale and well-preserved are rare in the south of the Yangtze River. The ancient Jiangnan water town style has formed Xitang's rich natural landscape resources. Streets are built along the river, and houses are built by the water. There are 27 stone bridges, 122 ancient lanes and more than a thousand meters long corridors in the 1.01 square kilometer old town area. There are nearly 20 scenic spots such as Xiyuan, Zhongfu Hall, Shipi Lane, Root Carving Museum, Button Museum, Holy Hall, Qi Laoye Temple, and Ni Tianzeng's ancestral home.</h2><img src="https://ak-d.tripcdn.com/images/fd/tg/g2/M00/89/7E/CghzgVWwyYyAZhYjAAXCanVKBeg348_Z_1000_0.jpg" sourcewidth="1000" sourcehight="596"> ShipinongShipi Lane is at the end of Xitang West Street.
