Nanxun town is located in the hinterland of Hangjiahu Plain, belonging to the boundary of Huzhou City, on the south bank of Taihu Lake, and the ancient canal is like a jade ribbon around the waist of the ancient town. It is 120 kilometers away from Shanghai and Hangzhou, with convenient transportation. The Shanghai-Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Anhui Expressway runs through the whole line, and it takes only one hour's drive to and from Hangzhou and Shanghai, and only three hours to Nanjing and Ningbo.
Nanxun has a special origin with the history of the Republic of China and enjoys the reputation of "the first town in the Republic of China". At the beginning of last century, many wealthy businessmen in Nanxun, led by Zhang Jingjiang, actively supported Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary activities and made historical contributions to the establishment of the Republic of China. When Sun Yat-sen became president, he once said that nanxun town was a special city.

Like other ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River, Nanxun, with its crystal clear water, can see typical people with small bridges and flowing water, find a thousand-year-old bridge and a century-old house, and hear many names mentioned in history books. But the difference is that while fully appreciating the tradition, you can also taste the fashion of the old times.

Shanghai is far from being a prosperous time. In a small town a hundred years ago, you can see a real combination of Chinese and western architecture and experience a completely aristocratic life, which only Nanxun can do in all the ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River. This is the characteristic and charm of Nanxun.
