Huzhou
Cost of living, housing, transport and neighborhoods in Huzhou.
City Overview
Huzhou, on the south shore of Lake Tai, is the birthplace of the "lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets" concept (Anji) — ecologically livable and beautiful. A home of writing brushes with a long silk and bamboo heritage, it thrives on B&Bs and rural tourism (Moganshan). Near Hangzhou, Shanghai and Suzhou, it anchors the Delta’s green-integration demonstration zone. Cost of living is below Shanghai/Hangzhou with a relaxed pace and mild climate.
