Xitang is an ancient scenic town in Jiashan County, Zhejiang Province, China. Its history dates back to at least the Spring and Autumn Period when it was located at the border of the State of Yue and Wu.

Xitang is a water town crisscrossed by nine rivers. The town stretches across eight sections, linked by old-fashioned stone bridges. In the older parts of town, the buildings are set along the banks of the canals, which serve as the main transportation thoroughfares in the area.

西塘,江南六大古鎮之一,位於浙江省嘉興市嘉善縣。嘉善位於江,浙,滬,二省一市交界­處,這裡離上海,蘇州,杭州都在100公里以內,交通方便,高速公路,320國道,滬­杭鐵路穿境而過,乘坐汽車,火車均能到達。

西塘是一座已有千年曆史文化的古鎮。早在春秋戰國時期就是吳越兩國的相交之地,故有"­吳根越角"和"越角人家"之稱。西塘與其它水鄉古鎮最大的不同在於古鎮中臨河的街道都­有廊棚,總長近千米,就像頤和園的長廊一樣。

古鎮西塘,佔地面積1平方公里,古鎮區9條河道縱橫交織,將古鎮分為8個區塊,在其中­有27座古橋將市鎮連通。古鎮在春夏秋冬、晴陰雨雪的長久年代裡,始終呈現著一幅,人­家在水中,水上架小橋,橋上行人走,小舟行橋下,橋頭立商舖,水中有倒影的不斷變幻的­水鄉風情畫。

2001年西塘被聯合國列入世界文化遺產預備清單。
