Luzhi, located in Kunshan city about 25 kilometers east of Suzhou, is an old but extremely beautiful water town. With a history of more than 1400 years, it compares favorably to Zhouzhuang Town.
The natural beauty of the town is indescribable. Old stone bridges, limpid water, venerable maidenhair trees and old-style dwellings, as well as the traditional women's costumes, create an ideal 'civilized, rich, pastoral and harmonious' environment. In addition, Luzhi town is noted for several historical and cultural relics, such as Baosheng temple, the Wansheng Rice Company and the White Lotus Flower Temple of the North Song Dynasty.
