In 1991, Wuzhen was named as a renowned historical and cultural town in Zhejiang province. Wuzhen has become a permanent site of the World Internet Conference since 2014. [Photo by Zhang Xingjian/chinadaily.com.cn] |
Wuzhen has a long and interesting history. The peaceful and friendly environment enables a visitor to find inner peace and satisfaction in this happy and lively town. The people here are eager to learn more about the other cultures and they interact with visiting foreigners to learn about their respective countries. I respect the Chinese government; they have invested in keeping the livelihood and well being of their people.
There is so much we can learn from this great culture and integrate in our respective societies. Even simple things are presented in such a manner that cannot be compared in any other society.
There are many other tourist and scenic places on the planet but after visiting such a beautiful town, I can say, with confidence, that if one has not experienced the love, care and life in Wuzhen, one has wasted the time elsewhere.
