Wuzhen has a total population of 60,000, of which 12,000 are permanent residents.
Wuzhen is divided into six districts--traditional workshops, local-styled dwelling houses, culture, food and beverage, traditional shops, and the water township customs and life.
Tourists have been not allowed into the town since Friday and authorities set up a security headquarters a few weeks ago, requiring residents to register.
Almost 2,000 people from 120 countries and regions attended the conference including officials from technology giants including Nokia, Apple, Kaspersky, IBM and Samsung.
Located in the centre of the six ancient towns south of Yangtze river, Wuzhen displays its history through its ancient stone bridges, stone pathways and delicate wood carvings.
