Besides an 8,000-year-old canoe, believed to be the first of its kind built in human history, other precious relics such as the world’s oldest lacquer bow and China’s oldest herb jar are also on display.

Xianghu Lake Scenic Area

Xianghu Lake is known as the sister lake to West Lake and is essentially the quieter version of its renowned sibling.

So having the chance to soak up this beautiful landscape, home to the oldest canoe in the world, the epic battlefield of Wu and Yue States, southern China’s states during the Spring and Autumn Period (771 BC- 476 C) and the birthplace of Xi Shi, one of the most famous ancient Chinese beauties, is definitely worth every step into Xiaoshan and its ancient old history.
