Tourism in Wuxi, the Minor Shanghai
0 
With European architecture, the restaurants on the street provide a rich variety of different styles of foods and stacks from China and around the world. In addition to the most famous cuisines of China, customers can also find barbecue, hot pot, and ethnic minority Tujia cuisine, to name just a few. With good quality and low prices, the food here attracts visitors from home and abroad. It's also the choice of local people who dine here when they don't like to cook at home.
Another food street is Beitang, located right on the Grand Canal, an ancient man-made waterway linking the northern and southern parts of the country.
Characterized by local Wuxi specialties, the 700-meter-long street features 120 food stalls providing bean curd jelly, hot and sour soup and Brazilian barbecue, among others. Customers can come to eat anytime between 7 in the morning and 2 at night while enjoying the beautiful scenery of the Grand Canal, one of the wonders of ancient China.
If you would like to go shopping, you may go downtown to Zhongshan Street, one of the busiest shopping areas. The stores are open till midnight every day and customers can find all the world-famous chain stores and brands.
You can also go to Taihu Square, also known to locals as People's Square. Decorated with neon lights, the square looks especially charming at night when filled with people of different ages roller-skating, chatting, singing and dancing in the cool breeze.
Other places you can go at night include a couple of ancient temples and the bar street, a favorite place for locals and Westerners.
Supported by the local government, the tourism department of Wuxi is striving to develop its cultural tourism and plans to open more tourism programs at night to attract more visitors, especially during the 2010 Shanghai Expo which starts in May.
