About Yuehe Street
Its shop and workshop buildings give the district a different character from the city’s grand private houses: narrow trading fronts, waterside lanes and food shops remain central to the experience. The Zongzi Culture Museum provides a specific connection with Jiaxing’s leaf-wrapped rice tradition. Follow the canal and Zhongji Road before choosing a museum or tea stop, distinguishing the historic street pattern from later restoration.
What to look for
- Shop and workshop fronts show the neighbourhood’s commercial character.
- The Zongzi Culture Museum connects the canal district with Jiaxing’s rice-dumpling tradition.
