The Gucheng Scenic Area encompasses all the tourist attractions within the central urban area of Huzhou. In recent years, distinctive attractions such as Renhuang Mountain Scenic Area, Moon Hotel, Xiangwang Park, and the historical and cultural block of Yishang Street have been established, collectively known as the ‘Top Ten Sights of Gucheng’. The transportation between these attractions is convenient, allowing visitors to explore their interests over a day or two, and experience the historical culture of Huzhou. Renhuang Mountain is the highlight of the area, serving as an excellent urban mountain park ideal for hiking and leisure. For those interested in culture, the Huzhou Pen Museum is recommended for its display of Huzhou pen culture, as well as the life and artistic achievements of the Yuan Dynasty’s great calligrapher and painter Zhao Mengfu, where Huzhou pens can also be purchased. The Yishang Street historical and cultural preservation district offers a riverside complex of ancient buildings, making for a pleasant stroll. For shopping, one can visit the Aishan Plaza, and nearby Xiangwang Park offers boat rides. The Moon Hotel (Sheraton Huzhou Hot Spring Resort) is an iconic building and a well-known resort hotel in the area; it is an option for those with a sufficient budget. The opening hours and business status are subject to the day’s operations.
