Time-honored craftsmanship among ancient bricks and tiles

AN old street is like a pot of tea, the good taste of which can only be felt after you have tried it time and again. A mixture of history and modernity, it gives a flavour that can be fully and truly appreciated only with delicate care and over a considerable span of time. Come and see Anting, Zhouqiao and Nanxiang, and you will be deeply touched by the primitive simplicity and modern prosperity of these time-honoured streets.

Filling these streets are traditionally styled handicraft workshops built with ancient bricks and tiles. In these workshops, veteran handicraft masters are busy tailoring, painting, making paper-cuts or copper moulding, attracting the eyes of tourists.
