I traveled together with Student L for the first time. After making the decision, I noticed that the high-speed rail from Shanghai to Yangzhou had just been opened for three months. It is expected that this will also be the choice of many tourists for long weekends soon. Recently, I have used Ctrip APP more and found many convenient functions such as providing attractions and route arrangements according to travel needs. These are perfect for my friends and I for slow travel. The record started at the high-speed rail station. In more than ten days since the last time I took the high-speed rail, the store in Costa at the high-speed rail station had been replaced by Starbucks, and we had a meeting to sort out our ideas and start our journey to Yangzhou.

DAY1

Dongyuan Xiaoguan has a wide range of shops. After checking in to the hotel, we had a simple lunch nearby. The soup dumplings are very good and worth a try. The afternoon schedule starts fromHeyuanAt the beginning, the buildings combining Chinese and Western cultures, with pavilions and pavilions, passed through various aisles, as if time was telling the story of the time. There is also a detailed introduction to the characters and achievements of the He family. After a little knowledge, it seems that they have a certain understanding of the design concept of the garden. The leaky windows and door openings connecting the gardens are completely different in design, and they are neat and thoughtful. He Garden and Geyuan have their own ingenious design concepts, the former is more prominent in terms of spatial extensibility and structure. The latter cleverly integrates details and meanings.

Heyuan

After coming out of He Yuan, it takes about eight to nine minutes along the alley.Lu's salt merchant residence,Compared with the hustle and bustle of Heyuan tour groups and tourists, it seems particularly quiet and atmospheric. There should have been catering services before the epidemic, but now the banquet hall is temporarily closed. Walking slowly in the narrow alley along the high wall seems to be able to feel the prosperous business scene of the past. Various banquets and introductions of Huaiyang cuisine at the door also allow tourists to know more about Yangzhou. Out of the house, go all the way along the canalDongguan StreetCome on, the landscape roads on both sides of the canal are built in a very orderly manner, and enjoy the scenery on both sides along the clean and tidy trails. Occasionally, I find that Wudaotai Prefecture has resumed its exhibition, with a different style and a different flavor. When we arrived at the Dongguan Street Market, similar to the old streets in most cities, we walked around and finally chose Lion Tower for dinner. The lion's head, which is bigger than a fist, must not be missed. The meat but not greasy sauce is very delicious.

DAY2

Arrive firmly after breakfastslender West LakeNandaemun, take a lazy walk along the lakeside, take a walk and pat, and you can enjoy the beautiful scenery. Encountering a tour group, the tour guide enthusiastically introduced that a certain beautiful scenery was the location of the green grass along the river in Qiongyao's chapter at that time. The tranquil lake surface and the willow trees set off, Yangzhou in October is another style. After walking for about an hour, we arrived at the West Gate and took the water bus. Maybe it was non-holidays or non-busy times, and my friends and I enjoyed this wonderful cruise to ourselves. The journey takes about ten minutes. The scenery along the way is beautiful and the view is wide. There are not many tourists on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. It is highly recommended for photography enthusiasts to take pictures. Go ashore at Beidaemun Wharf and exit Beidaemun along the Lake of Lotus Lake. On the left hand side of the door is Daming Temple, where you can climb to the top and enjoy the panoramic view of Yangzhou.

once again came toDongguan StreetThe garden is here. In terms of design concepts and details, individuals prefer the garden more, especially the design of the yard in spring, summer, autumn and winter. From the layout of plants to the laying of the ground, it shows the owner's taste and the skills of the craftsman everywhere. At the end of the winter scene is a vaulted doorway, which passes through the doorway, implying peace and security. The twenty-four round holes on the wall represent the four seasons of plants matched with the 24 solar terms. The details echo each other, making people linger.

Coarse tea and rice should be one of the most popular shops on Dongguan Street. The shop covers about ten square meters and has five or six tables. The signboards are Lotus Root Starch Garden and Fried Lotus Root Pancakes. Especially Lotus Root Pancakes are highly recommended.

DAY 3

Waking up naturally as always, I took a taxi to Quyuan Tea House. The menus for morning tea and lunch are different. It's a pity that I can only miss the morning tea period, which is a slight regret. Xingyuan faces the West Lake, sitting quietly in the pavilion and waiting for a seat, making it so boring. The return trip is in the evening, but fortunately there are still a few hours left, so I decided to go at the last minute after lunchsongjiachengTake a walk in the sports park, follow the straight road, pass through the city gate, and the end of the road is the West Lake. Perhaps it was this inadvertent that we discovered a beautiful trail. There were almost no tourists, giving us the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful scenery and freehand brushwork for the next ten minutes. There are still two hours before the high-speed train leaves, so we decided to go to the city street where local literary and artistic youth gather to check out. There are several creative coffee shops on the small streets two to three hundred meters away. I randomly chose a restaurant and had a cup of Yangzhou latte recommended by the boss to temporarily end the three-day and two-night trip.

Travel slowly and understand Yangzhou slowly.
