    Tongli Town

    After lunch, you will be guided to the Tongli Ancient Town. Due to the long history and thoughtful preservation, Tongli is a wonderful place where people can appreciate the glamour and charm of the water town along the Yangtze River in China. Tongli is a picturesque and time-honored town embedded with a net of waterways. There, people can see 49 ancient bridges and 7 small isles segmented by the rivers and their branches. Strolling along the flagstone walkways around Tongli Town, you can find that almost all the folk dwellings are constructed at the water's edge with many boats berthing in the front. Here, the classic Retreat and Reflection Garden (Tuisi Garden) is a highlight with almost all the buildings inside standing by the jasper-like pond.
