## About Maojiabu

A village entirely in the Jiangnan style, Maojiabu is something of a rural paradise just outside the city. Car noise and exhaust fumes are rare here, and the air is fresh. The local Wolong Bridge is very well known, and boats can pass beneath it. Restaurants stand beside the bridge, and on a drizzly afternoon, a cup of wine here is an excellent choice.

## Tips from the guidebook

- Maojiabu is divided into Upper and Lower sections. Upper Maojiabu has more farmhouse restaurants, while Lower Maojiabu has better scenery.
