王江泾镇在浙江省嘉兴市秀洲区北面,是秀洲区最靠北的一个镇,南面接着嘉兴城区,北面与江苏省苏州市吴江区以河为界[1][2]。京杭大运河从镇中穿过,镇上人习惯称这里是运河由苏入浙的第一站[2][6]。据百度百科所载,全镇行政区域面积120.39平方千米,2019年末户籍人口86897人,镇人民政府驻荷花社区新镇路138号[1]。

这个镇兴于丝绸。南宋时候,这里已是江浙两省交界处的一处丝市,镇上的丝行、机户和店铺连成一片,数百年间一直是浙北的织造重镇[2][5]。今天镇上的织机仍在转动,喷水织机遍及各村,镇上也有长虹桥、莲泗荡和刘王庙这些与水相伴的古迹[2][6]。

历史沿革[edit]

元朝时,王姓、江姓两户人家在这一带的河网间相继兴起,地名由此而来[2]。南宋以来,王江泾的机户以织绸为业,方圆几十里的丝货从这里集散,旧志称其「衣被天下」[2][5]。

1983年,王江泾公社的集镇部分改为区属镇[2]。1988年10月,双桥乡撤销后归入镇上。又过了十年,1998年5月,荷花、虹阳两乡也划为镇的一部分[1][2]。到2001年,南汇镇与田乐乡整建制划入,嘉北乡的沈家桥、金鱼桥、宇泗浜、收藏四村和栖真乡的上睦村也一并划归,镇的辖域自此成形[1][2]。

地理环境[edit]

镇域东边是嘉善县的陶庄、天凝,南边是秀洲区的嘉北、新城两地,西边挨着新塍镇,北面隔着河荡与吴江的盛泽、平望相望[1]。全镇地势低平,河荡密布,水域约占版图面积的四分之一,湖、荡、港、浜之间以圩堤相连[2][5]。

京杭大运河自北向南纵贯镇境,闸港、南汇一带的水网都汇入运河水系,镇上的长虹桥就架在这条河上[1][2]。镇北的湖荡往东南连成一片,形成秀洲北部的湿地[2]。

人口民族[edit]

百度百科所载,2019年末全镇户籍人口86897人[1]。2011年浙江日报刊载的材料记全镇总人口79789人,另有外来人口52555人[5];维基百科则记人口8.57万[3]。三次的说法年份不同,数字各有出入。

经济[edit]

纺织是王江泾的旧业,也是主业。2011年的报道称,镇上有各类织机3.6万余台,喷水织机占了3.3万台,有梭织机几乎全部换掉,无梭化比例为99.9%,一年织出坯布30亿米,产品销往绍兴轻纺城、盛泽东方市场等地,当地被列为中国织造名镇[5]。纺织之外,镇上还有家具、电器机械和热电几类产业[5]。

镇里的湿地水面上种着荷与菱。2014年前后,全镇莲藕种植面积达到20800亩,以运河东畔的长虹、洪典、太平几村为核心,办起了以荷塘为主题的农业园区[4]。据百度百科,2019年全镇有工业企业520家,其中规模以上186家[1]。

文化[edit]

每年清明、中秋和除夕前后,江浙沪一带的渔民驾船到莲泗荡,泊在刘王庙前,称江南网船会;会上有踏白船、舞龙、舞狮、高跷、花鼓、莲湘等表演,庙会期间湖面船队相连[4][6]。这一习俗已被列入国家级非物质文化遗产名录[4][5]。

镇上习练踏白船,也有书画之举,明代曾在闻湖建书画院[4]。全镇各村组织起书画、摄影和球赛一类的文体队伍,镇文联下设文学、美术、书法、摄影、音乐、民间收藏等协会[4]。

名胜古迹[edit]

长虹桥横跨京杭大运河,在镇的东侧。桥始建于明万历三十九年,天启元年建成,清康熙五年、嘉庆十七年和光绪六年先后重修;三孔石拱,全长72.8米,桥顶宽4.9米,是浙北平原软土上修建的大型石拱桥[2][6]。桥已列入全国重点文物保护单位,也随大运河一同列入世界文化遗产[4][5]。

桥西堍有一宿庵。据说有位僧人往南海去,在这庵里歇过一夜;当地传说乾隆皇帝下江南时也在此过夜,庵名由此而来[2]。庵的初建年代已无从查考,到清朝后期毁于战火,同治、光绪两朝又陆续修复[2]。

莲泗荡在民主村一带,与油车港镇交界,原名连四荡,属天然湖荡,水域面积数千亩[2][4]。荡边的刘王庙祭祀元代殉于战事的刘承忠,庙会即由此而起;1999年建成的刘公塔高43.8米,是景区里的地标[2]。

长虹桥一带还连着长虹古寺、长虹公园和沿河的一里古街,合称长虹古韵景区[6]。镇西的古塘村有以铁皮石斛和水生蔬菜为主体的生态农庄[6]。
