About Xietanglao Street
Step back in time along Xietanglao Street, a beautifully preserved ancient water town where Ming and Qing dynasty architecture lines serene canals. Glide through historic waterways on a traditional cruise and immerse yourself in the timeless charm of Anhui's cultural heritage.
Local Legends & Stories
Xietanglao Street dates back over 800 years and was once a bustling trade hub for merchants traveling along Anhui's ancient waterways. Local folklore speaks of scholars and poets who found inspiration along these canals during the Ming and Qing dynasties.
Must Do Experiences
-
Take a scenic cruise along the ancient waterways, strolling past centuries-old merchant houses and stone bridges. Wander through narrow alleyways lined with traditional Huizhou-style architecture. Sample local Anhui specialties at riverside tea houses and street stalls. Capture stunning reflections of white-walled buildings in the calm canal waters.
Hidden Gems
-
Visit early morning when the mist rises off the water and locals are still going about their daily routines. Explore the lesser-known side alleys where artisan workshops still practice traditional crafts. Sit at a quiet canal-side table for tea and watch wooden boats pass by slowly.
What Makes it Special

Authentic preserved water town atmosphere with minimal commercialization. Unique combination of walking streets and scenic cruise experiences. Deeply rooted Huizhou culture and architectural heritage intact.
