坐落在江南古运河怀抱中的桐乡,干百年来浸润着大运河的恩泽。唐宋以来,就成为繁华富庶之区,有着丰富而深厚的历史文化积淀。历代志书都称之为“鱼米之乡、丝绸之府、文物之邦”。然而这个位处沪、苏、杭3大名市交汇点显要位置的富饶县市,从前在外界却少有影响,以致有人自我介绍时不报“桐乡”,而上攀嘉兴或杭州。 最近20年来,桐乡人通过大力保护历史文化遗产,积极开展“名人文化”建设,使桐乡的知名度得到前所未有的提高,以人文荟萃的文化之名,享誉海内外。如今的桐乡已成为江南水乡 Located in the embrace of the ancient Grand Canal in the south of Tongxiang, a hundred years soaked with the grace of the Grand Canal.

Today Tongxiang has become a Jiangnan Water Village
