The best area to stay in Wuzhen is within the scenic area itself, specifically in the West Scenic Zone (Xizha).
The West Scenic Zone is the larger and more developed of Wuzhen's two main areas. It's a beautifully restored ancient water town, crisscrossed by canals and stone bridges. The main thoroughfare, Xizha Street, runs alongside the Grand Canal, lined with traditional guesthouses, artisan workshops, and eateries. Everything here is designed for pedestrians, with electric boats offering transport along the waterways.
Couples often find Xizha ideal for a romantic escape. Staying directly within the scenic area means you can enjoy the quiet evenings after the day-trippers have left, experiencing the town illuminated by lanterns. Many guesthouses offer rooms with canal views, and you're just steps away from serene walks, charming tea houses, and traditional performances.
For travellers seeking convenience and a truly immersive experience, staying in Xizha is unparalleled. You'll have immediate access to all the attractions, from the Chinese Footbinding Culture Museum to the Indigo Fabric Workshop, without needing to navigate outside the zone.
