    Quoting from chinahighlights.com:

    Qiandeng town is located in Kunshan City of Jiangshu Province. With a history of more than 2,000 years, it is notable for its cultural background, the typically colorful lights, the well-preserved ancient residences, and the elegant watery views.

    As the birthplace of Kunqu Opera and the hometown of Gu Yanwu (a famous patriotic poet of the Qing Dynasty), Qiandeng Ancient Town is among the famous historical and cultural towns in Jiangsu Province.

    Personally: this is not the size of Wuzhen, Nanxun or Zhouzhuang. But it has its charm and if you covered the aforementioned, or if you are in the area, I think it makes for a nice stop. The Yanfu Temple should be visited too while here.
