The Rongxiang Historical Block, also known as Rongxiang Ancient Town, is one of the birthplaces of China’s national industry and commerce and one of the famous historical and cultural blocks in Wuxi City. Rongxiang has a history of nearly 600 years. It originated from a natural village inhabited by the Rong family in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. With the rapid rise of the group of national industrialists and businessmen represented by Rong Zongjing and Rong Desheng from the Rong family, Rongxiang evolved into a town.
It is deeply influenced by many factors such as Rong family culture, industrial and commercial culture, landscape ecology, famous city history, farming civilization, and modern civilization of integrating Chinese and Western elements. It presents formal diversity and regional uniqueness, constituting a splendid cultural scene. Up to now, there is still an old street about 380 meters long with modern features and 157 modern architectural complexes with the brand of the times and local characteristics.
