Historic Xiaoshan Street in Shaoxing, China

Xiaoshan Street runs alongside a canal in a central district of Shaoxing, Zhejiang province. Although it has a distinctive style and is at the southern edge of a historic area frequented by tourists, the bustling activity amidst the old buildings there reminded me of some busy-but-not-so-touristy "old streets" elsewhere in China. I will say and share more about the nearby historic area later. But first, here are some scenes from Xiaoshan Street.
