SEG 332 - Part 15 in a 16 Part Series on CHINA -




SEGMENT 332

Ancient water town

Part 15 in the 16 part series on China

The ancient water village of Tongli is 1300 years old, and built up around natural canals and waterways complete with small boat taxis similar to the city of Venice. We'll be stopping along old street shopping markets, visiting an artist shop where silk is being embroidered, and visiting the wedding museum which houses the components of a traditional wedding box, seeing ancient childrens' clothing, ornaments, household goods, and a folklore museum.




An enchanting old bearded musician is captured playing his ancient music, a bemused and smiling wizard like sweet magician of pleasant music face.






Tonight I will be returning to Shanghai to re-unite with the rest of the touring group at the Skyway Landis Hotel.
