南浔是中外闻名的“辑里湖丝”的故乡，兴盛的丝绸贸易造就了南浔“巨富之镇”的美名。这里富贾云集，园林众多，小莲庄、刘氏梯号、张氏故居等规模宏大，景色优美。尤其难得的是这些园林的建筑风格中西合璧，将巴洛可立柱、欧式壁炉、法式刻花玻璃与堂楼、天井、砖雕门楼有机融合，令人寻味。嘉业藏书楼中有典籍万册，临水而建的百间楼流传着古老的传说。河岸边高高低低的石阶，与空中层层叠叠的封火墙，有如起伏不断的琴键，奏响永不止息的江南水乡曲……

Nanxun is known in China and abroad as the home of Jiti Silk. Its thriving silk trade helped Nanxun earn the accolade "town of afflu-ence." Its community of wealthy merchants gave rise to beautiful garden residences, such as the Xiaolian Villa, the former residences of Liu Ti and of the Zhangs-all built on a grand scale and delightful to the eye. Particularly unusual is the juxtaposition of Chinese and Western architectural styles of these garden residences: Baroque columns, European fireplaces and French etched glass are blended into traditional Chinese buildings with central halls, skyweUs, and carved brick gatetowers.
