More refined and tranquil than East Gate, West Gate contains the essence of Wuzhen. Here, elegant old buildings stand next to the water, creating the classic scenery of a Jiangnan water town with its small bridges and canals. The cafes and small shops dotting its streets and lanes are infused with a cultural and artistic sensibility. A night-time cruise of West Gate on a canal boat is highly recommended. Viewing the Jiangnan water scene in lantern light with the soft sound of the oar in the water is especially enchanting and will keep you enthralled.

Show More ReviewsThis place is huge so allow yourself at least half day or stay overnight for the beautiful night scenery. Summer can be quite hot during the day but there are plenty of stall selling drinks. Make sure to catch the evening performance around 7pm
