Wuzhen lies in the far north-east of Zhejiang province, about 90 minutes by road from Shanghai. The name "water town" is especially apt; besides lying on the Grand Canal, the settlement is completely encircled by two rivers - the Dong Shi and a smaller tributary, which meet at a T-junction. No matter where you stand, water provides the backdrop, the raison d''锚tre of the whole town.
About 250 families used to live in the old quarter of Wuzhen. However, following the "restoration" of the town, many townsfolk have been moved out to the "new" Wuzhen, an attractively landscaped but otherwise characterleapartment block 15 km down the road towards Shanghai. Those who remain are mainly the elderly and craftspeople. While I was assured that there is nothing to stop new residents moving into the old town, young people nowadays seem strangely absent.
The old wooden shops of Wuzhen look ageleand immovable, as though their timbers have totally defied the ravages of time. At first, one suspects that the custodians of the town have tried to cover up the decomposing processes of nature. But look more closely and you find slow rot setting in around the bases of the doorframes, and splinters breaking away from the lintels. What little restoration has been done is so inconspicuous as to be totally indistinguishable from the original.
All the buildings in Wuzhen are in Ming or Qing Dynasty style. One palatial establishment is the "Double Happiness" Marriage Shrine. Twin hearts are joined in a nouveau-Chinese character in gilt upon a flaming crimson background, presumably depicting the inseparability of marriage - perhaps the Chinese know something that we Westerners don''t.
Wuzhen also has some unique attractions, including Yu Liuliang''s Coin and Paper Money Exhibition. Nearby (would you believe) stands a Pawnshop Museum, as if to prove that usury is universal. (Maybe fortunately, Wuzhen has the only such establishment I''ve ever come across). I tried looking for a Qing Dynasty DVD player in the pawnshop, but was sadly disappointed.
No fewer than eight stone bridges crothe Dong Shi River, the grandest of them being the Fengyuan Double Bridge. The bridge is separated into two parts by a wooden sluice gate. Cyclists carry their bikes acrothe high arches of the bridges, which are designed to let boats paunderneath without difficulty.
Back in the main square, the elders are still hanging out. On the village stage, a performance of Peking Opera is underway. Acrothe square, a master puppeteer entertains visitors with a shadow-play of the type known in Java as wayang kulit. But while the Javanese version of shadow puppetry is subtle and refined, the Wuzhen style has the protagonists attacking each other with the ferocity of tigers.
Whether by accident or design, this town seems to have been dropped into its watery setting by a master town planner from another galaxy. A more perfect location for a settlement would be difficult to find. It is fervently to be hoped that tourism will augment rather than destroy the unique ambiance of Wuzhen.
