Chocolate town in Zhejiang serves up sweet life

Aficion Chocolate Town sprang up in Jiashan county of Jiaxing, Zhejiang province. Colorful windmills slowly rotating on the lawn, castle-like factory buildings amid a sea of flowers and the aroma of sweet chocolate permeating the air … Visitors might well think they've arrived at Charlie's chocolate factory. They've actually reached Aficion Chocolate Town in Jiashan county, Zhejiang province. "I have been in love with chocolate since I was very little," said Mo Xuefeng, founder of the chocolate town. Born in Miujia village in Dayun township, where the chocolate town is located, Mo, 37, was supposed to take over his father's business when he finished his graduate studies in Boston.
