时间无法停留。

我知道，

这还是我记忆中的西塘。

画船摇橹，青瓦黛墙，

木质的船桨划开深巷里的旧时光。

游客和原住民一起在春日的暖阳中徜徉，

时间，会让所有的人和事物变得更好。

但无论如何改变，

最本真，最熟悉的一切都在这里，

在这个生活着的千年古镇——西塘。

Time cannot stop.

But the ancient town of Xitang still looks like the one in my memory.

Ornate boats, rocking oars, grey tiles and livid walls…

Wooden oars cut through time in the old alleys.

Tourists and locals stroll down the streets in the warm weather,

Time betters everything and everyone.

But no matter how they change,

The most essential and familiar thing remain untouched.

It is the living millennium ancient town——Xitang.
