The ancient town is fabulous in the rain, just like a lotus in the water. Walking on the pathways paved with blue stones, you can see plenty of white houses, which are fresh and antique. Both the road and the houses bear the marks of time.

Although Tongli is along the river, it has trees everywhere. All the streets in the town were built along the water. Over 40 bridges, which were built in various styles and during various dynasties, connect the town as one. The most famous scenic spots are ‘one garden (The Retreat & Reflection Garden), two halls (Jiayin and Chongben Hall), three bridges (Taiping, Jili, Changqing Bridges)'. All these tourist attractions have an antique flavor. Only when you are south of the Yangtze River can you truly understand the beauty of water flowing beneath a bridge.

The best way of traveling around Tongli is by boat. Sitting in the small boat and traveling through the bridges, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery and find peace in your heart. Traveling by water is just like wandering in a painting.

Cafes or stores along the river, which sell clothing and art work , are mostly owned by outsiders. The locals just hang around, taste teas and chat with friends along the river. They only need to collect the rents at home. What’s more, it’s often the locals who row the boats. They really enjoy their life here.

Osprey catching fish is a unique show in the ancient town. The ospreys are well trained by their owners and always perform on command. However, they can’t eat the fish because their owners fix their necks so that they can’t swallow their catch.
