For visiting Zhujiajiao Ancient Town in January, the 80 RMB 5-attraction combined ticket (including Kezhi Garden, Chenghuang Temple, Yuanjin Zen Temple, etc.) is recommended for high cost-effectiveness and coverage of key cultural sites. In 3–4 hours, prioritize Kezhi Garden, Fangsheng Bridge, Beida Street, and Chenghuang Temple—routes are compact with clear signage for easy planning. The boat tour (200 RMB per boat) is worthwhile on sunny days, offering water views of ancient bridges and residences. With January’s low temperatures (average -1°C to 11°C), choose noon hours and dress warmly. Boat services operate until 16:30, so buy tickets by 15:00.
