Wood Root Carving Museum: Around 300 spectacularroot sculptures are on display in the museum's four exhibition rooms. Each of the rooms has a name: Guinness World Records, Eagles, Buddhist Images and the Underwater World.
Button Museum: Xitang is the ‘home of buttons’ in China;the town manufactures the majority of buttons made in the country. The museum has a fascinating collection of over 1,000 buttons, including antique and new buttons made fromhorn, ivory, silver silk, brass, mother of pearl and bamboo to name but a few of the materials used.
Long Corridor: The most distinctive difference between Xitang and other ancient waterside towns is this long waterside corridor. The total length of this ceilinged corridor is more than 1,000 metres; much like the long corridor in the Summer Palace in Beijing.
