Women's traditional clothing

One of the most charming aspects of the town is the traditional clothing worn by the women locally. It is not unique as it is a style common in the wetlands and marshlands of this part of China, but in Luzhi it is worn with a certain pride. It’s not just about the clothing either, as the style requires the women to comb their hair up into a bun and cover it with a black headscarf.
Bright blue trousers and a matching bright blue jacket are further brightened by an embroidered panel on the front of the jacket, and brightly embroidered shoes. The whole design is extremely attractive and has resulted in the people being occasionally referred to as “Suzhou’s ethnic minority”.

Along the canals look out for the small stone bricks which are used to tie up the boats. Although many are new, there are some old ones around as well, often carved into special shapes (animal heads, etc).
