Since ancient times, Jinling has been the home of emperors. As an important city in the Yangtze River Delta region, Nanjing's position in Jiangsu is self-evident. In fact, Nanjing has a long history and is surrounded by scenic spots. When you come here, you must see the magnificent pictures of the Six Dynasties and visit the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum. In addition, I would like to recommend everyone to Gaochun District today.

Gaochun is China's first slow city and the headquarters of International Slow City China. Slow City means that here, there is more space for people to walk and more green spaces for people to relax and entertain. DAY1 Hangzhou to Nanjing, take the subway to Gaochun

[Gucheng Lake Slow City]

Gaochun District is known as the back garden of Nanjing. The scenery here is classic and beautiful, and the unique slow city atmosphere is even more exciting. Tourists feel comfortable and happy when they are in it, as if they have come to the fields of nature. The beautiful scenery makes countless people linger. At the first stop, we arrived at the Shuishancheng City of Gucheng Lake. The scenic area is picturesque, and the scenery in the four seasons is full of different.

There are thousands of hectares of flower fields here, and the lake is full of green lotuses. In spring, the flowers bloom here and are fragrant. The boys and girls swam happily among them. The scenery and people were beautiful, and everything seemed peaceful and harmonious. In autumn, the forests here are dyed and the water waves are clear. The fiery red maple leaves ignite the enthusiasm of the scenic area. In the bleak autumn wind, the scenic area is still very lively and crowded with tourists. In winter, the sky is full of snow, and the mountains in the scenic area are piled up. At a glance, you can see white snow.

If the weather is cold and cold, the trees on the mountain may form rime. Such a magnificent scenery is even more amazing. At this time, tourists from Nanjing come in droves. When it is sunny, tourists are dressed in red in the mountains and fields, and the snow scenery on all sides becomes more beautiful. However, the best scenery in the scenic area is midsummer.

It is now early July, with thousands of waves rippling in the lake fields, a breeze blowing and lotus leaves swaying. The fish swim in the sky, and the flowers and plants are fragrant. The coastal flower lake here is bright and conspicuous, and tens of thousands of flowers bloom beautifully. The scene was also extremely spectacular. Many people are amazed and immersed in the romantic sea of flowers. This is the best enjoyment.

The thousand-acre Baihe Garden is even more fascinating. Arriving at the lake, the lotus leaves here are round and huge, and you can also pick them off and wear them on your head. There are also many types of lotus flowers. There are both domestic varieties and foreign types. The huge water lily leaf is even more unbelievable. Bringing children here can definitely improve their horizons.

Of course, you can't miss out on water events. In the hot summer, who doesn't like to be in close contact with water? Shallow water areas are set up in the lake in the scenic area, and there are also a series of guarantee projects. Therefore, everyone was also safe and bold to go into the water to play. Surfing on the water is thrilling and exciting, and after the experience, it will leave people with endless aftertaste. Water crossings are very interesting, and all kinds of small obstacles are set carefully. This is a playground for parents and children.

[Gaochun Old Street]

The second stop we visited Gaochun Old Street. Gaochun Old Street is a well-known place in Nanjing. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, merchants gathered here and water transportation was developed. Countless literati and literati miss this place, and many dignitaries stop to rest. There are both small bridges and flowing water, as well as antique hotels. It can be said that after the development of Gaochun people, the old street has regained its vitality.

When you walk into the ancient street, you are attracted by the street pattern at first glance. The streets paved with bluestone are full of historical elegance, and the wooden buildings on both sides are antique. Tall plaques are written in golden characters, and many old signboard shops are still doing well. In fact, Gaochun Old Street is known as the Second Confucius Temple in Nanjing.

It has a long history, prosperous humanities, and developed commerce. It once topped the Jiangnan town. Along the river, people spontaneously built houses. Looking at the rows of houses with pink walls and black tiles, the special water town style is even more enjoyable. On the old street, there is the Guan Wang Temple. When he stepped in, he saw a lifelike statue placed in the center of the room. Guan Gong had a long beard and a red face, and his eyes were bright. On both sides are the eight Vajra in Buddhism.

On the 15th day of every day, pilgrims gather here. People old and young all sincerely asked for worship. Sandalwood curled in the small temple, and the fragrance lingered around the beam. There are also some people beating wooden fish to pursue comfort in life. Of course, the Gaochun Folk Museum on the old street is also a must-see place. More than 1600 antiquities are displayed in the Folk Customs Museum, all of which are well preserved. When tourists arrived here, everyone was also filled with emotion.

Listening to the guide's eloquence, we also gained an understanding of the long-standing culture of Gaochun Old Street. Everyone lamented extremely that the old street indeed carries hundreds of years of cultural memories. I hope that the cultural heritage of Old Street will be followed and this place will always be prosperous and prosperous.

[Zhensong Resort]

The third stop is to introduce the Pillow Pine Resort Hotel in Gaochun. The hotel is located in Gaochun Slow City Scenic Area. The unique design of the hotel is also exciting. Mancheng is originally a well-known leisure and holiday attraction at home and abroad. It provides a place to relax for white-collar tourists from the Nanjing metropolitan area and even the Yangtze River Delta.

After being immersed in the city for too long, I believe everyone longs for relaxation and comfort. And Pillow Pine Resort Hotel really does this. Among the winding mountains, the hotel chose a flat road for construction. The exterior is novel and beautiful, and the interior is warm and special. In fact, this hotel is more like it is specially prepared for white-collar tourists.

In the early morning, when you open the door, you can see the mountains and rivers at a glance. Beautiful scenery is rushing towards you, birds are flocked, and the grass is delicious. This is the best natural scenery. Tall birch groves are around the house, and the cobblestone country roads are extremely interesting. Walking on the path in the forest, the fresh air entered the heart and lungs, and my mood suddenly became much better.

Entering the Pillow Pine Resort Hotel, the special cabin design is very surprising. The main room is properly decorated and is pure white from top to bottom. This also makes people feel good. It is clean and tidy, spacious and bright, and elegant. This is everyone's common recognition of the hotel.

It can be said that tourists have left unforgettable memories. The hotel is located among landscape poems and paintings, surrounded by natural beauty, which is what people yearn for most. It is rare to be able to take peace in the middle of the chaos and integrate urban humanities into it.

[Gaochun International Slow City Yaxi]

The fourth stop is to introduce Gaochun International Slow City Yaxi. Yaxi Town is located southeast of Gaochun District, Nanjing City, with a population of about 20,000. However, since the Italian mayor came, people have also become very interested in this. Yaxi Town has beautiful scenery, with tens of thousands of hectares of farmland. It is fragrant in spring and summer, and fallen leaves are fluttering in autumn and winter. People live a simple and diligent agricultural life, but the mountains, rivers and pastoral areas here are so beautiful.

Internationally, Yaxi Town is also included in the list of slow cities. The special lifestyle attracted a large number of tourists, and everyone was very impressed. Different from ordinary farmhouses, Yaxi Town follows the fun of returning to its original nature. In the countryside, hares, waterbirds, sparrows, egrets, etc. often appear. People each have their own jobs and they enjoy the best life.

As my country enters a new stage of development, ecological protection has become a top priority. As an outstanding representative township in the country, Yaxi Town has also lived up to expectations. Walking into the village, you will find the streams gurgling and the trees are luxuriant. In the midsummer scenery, vitality and vitality are everywhere. The branches are prosperous and surrounded by clear streams, which is how the town gets its name. Tourists from all over the world are coming in an endless stream, and everyone wants to experience the best pastoral scenery.

Here, there are gradually more and more tourist projects. People in Yaxi Town have opened B & Bs, and they also let tourists pick agricultural products. It can be said that this made everyone cheer. In Slow Park, urban travelers feel a long-lost happy experience. The special farm life here is eye-opening, and young students are also full of gains. Nowadays, some schools also come here to stop and experience it.

Jungle Crossing is a newly introduced large-scale jungle expansion project in the scenic area in 2018, allowing tourists to explore the secret realms of jungle urban holidays. This is a forest adventure that combines safety, excitement and fashion, with 47 various interesting challenges.

There is also a rainbow slide dozens of meters long that cannot be missed.

The brand-new glass plank road between the treetops shuttles through the canopy along ropes and pedals of various shapes. The lush leaves pass through the ears and temples, and the hollow ropes and nets are under the feet, allowing you to clearly see the distance from the earth. The project is expected to be officially put into operation in early 2019.

Summer is hot, and the slippery canopy here is very popular. Drift directly down the rushing river and let your body hug tightly with the river. The refreshing stream submerged the body, drifting and splashing waves. In addition, there are also rainbow slides.

The slide imitates the construction of a rainbow, which is greatly more interesting. This is also specially prepared for children. Of course, not far from the slide, there is also a glass plank road on the mountain. Walking on the plank road and overlooking the thousands of mountains and rivers, with lush branches and leaves shaded Yaxi Town, this is the best experience.

[Youzi Mountain]

For the last stop, don't forget the characteristic pastoral countryside of Youzi Mountain. A loving mother has a thread in her hand, and a wanderer has a dress on her body. In ancient times, wanderers left their hometown far away, but their mothers missed them forever. In Gaochun District, Youzi Mountain is also a major sign. There are characteristic pastoral villages at the foot of the mountain, and the scenery inside is quite beautiful.

In Longshang Village, modern hospitality methods have been introduced here. The visitor center is decorated warmly and appropriately, neatly decorated and atmospheric, which also allows tourists to relax. A common cafe in the city, it also meets everyone's needs. In fact, what surprised everyone the most was the Cultural Experience Hall. Youzi Mountain was a cultural resort during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The humanities here were bright and many poems by literati were left behind.

Walking into the cultural plank road, there is a green tea space cultural experience hall. Different from other places, this teahouse has a long charm. When you order a bowl of green tea and look down on the railing, people can immediately feel the flavor of Youzi Mountain. The breeze came, and the fragrance of tea filled the restaurant. Taste the tea carefully, intuitively lubricate the tip of your tongue, and the tea flows directly into your heart. On a hot summer day, this is definitely the best cooling.

Walking further forward, you will reach Xiaomao Mountain. Xiaomao Mountain is dozens of meters high, with steep slopes and rugged roads. However, the scenery on the mountain is beautiful, with trees and pines. Walking up the hill, everyone suddenly felt the breeze blowing. When they looked up, they could see the scenery around them. It makes people feel happy.

There is also a Zhengfu Cottage at the foot of Youzi Mountain. The cottages are uniquely decorated and the interior is classical and elegant. This is the residence of a great poet. The former residence is preserved locally. The Cottage is filled with unique charm, and the cultural atmosphere that has been spread for thousands of years seems to be passed on. Only by being in it yourself can you truly experience it. Youzi Mountain is still romantic, with fragrant flowers and plants and tall trees. The pastoral scenery here is really unforgettable.
