I suggest choosing to live near the scenic area of Shouxi Lake based on my own mode of transportation (I am self driving). Taking a taxi is very convenient in the local transportation options, as the scenic spots are not far apart and the parking lots for holiday travel are fully booked. Local shared electric vehicles are also very convenient.

I stayed near the Shouxi Lake Scenic Area See the inn again The inn is newly renovated and you can reach the main road by following the green arrow. We arrived in the evening and had dinner provided by the owner at the inn to take a walk (this owner is quite nice and can provide meal services if they are too lazy to go out). The inn is relatively close to the north gate of Shouxi Lake, about a twenty minute walk away.

The itinerary for the first day

After breakfast at the inn in the morning, the enthusiastic innkeeper guided a small path, saving at least ten minutes of travel. They walked to the north gate of Shouxi Lake and purchased the tickets one day in advance on Ctrip platform Package tickets (Skinny West Lake+Daming Temple+Individual Garden), this is a cost-effective option to purchase a package ticket based on your planned location.

Skinny West Lake It will take about 2-3 hours to tour, and there will be a flower exhibition when we go. The scenery is very suitable for taking photos. The Mingyue Night at the Twenty Four Bridges and the Wuting Bridge are recommended attractions for a short stroll. It is not recommended to spend too much time. There are not many people entering from the north gate, and we enter and exit from the north gate. After leaving, turn left and walk for ten minutes Daming Temple I went to climb the Qiling Pagoda and saw the scenery of Shouxi Lake in the distance. I could also hit the bell with my ticket. It was just time for lunch when I came out. I took a taxi to Fuxing for afternoon dinner, which was quite fast and didn't require a long wait. The taste was decent.

The afternoon itinerary is Geyuan+Dongguan Street+Pishi Street

I bought Yangda's jasmine yogurt (which I personally like), Fuxing Not far from Dongguan Street, you can walk or ride a shared electric bike.

Choose to visit a garden first, enter through the south gate and exit through the east gate. You can take advantage of the tour guide's explanation. There are many tour guides, and the garden is quite large. During holidays, it is really crowded. It is recommended to visit for 1-2 hours. When you come out, you will find Dongguan Street. Dinner was eaten at Jinglao, which is also a local recommendation. When the lights start, you can take a stroll around Pishi Street. It is strongly recommended to have dinner at Pishi Street, where the shops are more artistic and the taste is mixed. The commercialization of Dongguan Street is too heavy, similar to Chongqing Ciqikou. I bought some local specialties on Dongguan Street, they are really expensive.

We did not choose to go to He Yuan, it was calculated based on our itinerary. The location of Er Fen Mingyue Building happens to be near Pishi Street. If you are interested, you can take a card (free of charge). I have the energy to take a night boat tour of the ancient canal, but I didn't go anyway and I'm really tired.

I took a taxi the next day Grand Canal Museum Free, but advance reservation is required, usually one week in advance with a mobile phone reservation. Each person's ID card is needed to make an appointment to enter. There are about 12 pavilions, many of which are high-tech and open at 9am. It is recommended to queue up one hour in advance to enter. The order of the tour is suggested to be reversed. There are many people on holidays, so you can rent tour guides (20 yuan each) in the pavilion, which is quite convenient. You also need to bring some food and drink, and the visit time will be relatively long. Here, you can see many Hanfu ladies.

There is a restaurant on the basement floor that is relatively affordable. There is also a place to eat outside the exhibition hall. If you haven't tried it, I'm not sure about the price. Can you please go and tell me.

The above is all the itinerary for Yangzhou. I went to eat and play, and even picked up two bamboo tubes. Hahaha, the taste of the food is sweet and I don't like to enter carefully. The taxi drivers in Yangzhou are very enthusiastic and they are all part-time jobs. They are very talkative!
