In March and April every year, spring comes vigorously in Jiangnan, without any intention of being shy. The cherry blossoms in Yuantouzhu, Wuxi, Jianzhen Road, Yangzhou, and the rapeseed flowers in Qianduo Town, Xinghua, Taizhou are all the best places to enjoy flowers in spring. In our impression, when it comes to viewing cherry blossoms in spring, we will first think of the Japanese cherry blossom season or going to Wuhan University to watch cherry blossoms. However, in fact, in addition to these two places, there is also a very famous cherry blossom viewing place in our country. It is Yuantouzhu Scenic Area in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province, one of the three major cherry blossoms viewing resorts in the world.

The spring of 2021 has arrived, and the epidemic prevention work has finally come to light. As the opening up and deepening, my husband and I decided to reward ourselves well. After half a month of preparation, we carried the Dajiang Imperial 2 that we had just purchased before the year., and rushed to the Jiangnan area known as "Fireworks in Yangzhou in March" to enjoy flowers and pursue spring.

Day 1 22/3 Shenzhen-Nanjing-Wuxi

In order to catch the early flight, we left home at 4:30 and arrived at the airport at 5:00. After completing the security check procedures and boarding, the plane took off on time. At 8:30, we left the airport. Our car rental staff had not yet gone to work and had to wait in the terminal. At 9:20, the car rental driver finally drove to the airport to pick us up. After leaving the airport, the sun was shining and flowers were blooming along the way. It was particularly brilliant. The master told us that it had rained for a week in Nanjing last week and it just stopped on Saturday. It seems that we have had a good time again. After completing the formalities in the parking lot, at 9:30, we headed straight to Wuxi.

Driving straight to Chongshan Gate. In front of the bridgehead of Huanhu Road, hard-working traffic police blocked the road at the intersection and could not pass through. They could only follow the traffic flow and turn right and move forward. Seeing that the traffic flow in each other had already been several kilometers, I decisively turned right at the intersection of the Ferry Terminal. Fortunately, both sides of Wangshan Road have been opened for parking spaces. Find a place to park, walk to the gate of Yuantouzhu Scenic Area on the west side of the bridgehead of Hubin Road, and take a bus to enter the tourist center of the scenic spot.

We had already bought a ticket with a tour bus, but after entering the gate, we found that there was a long queue of tourists waiting for the bus, so we walked slowly along the Chongshan Gate → Chongshan Yinxiu → Yixiu Bridge → Sakura Pavilion. In fact, this road is not far, about less than 2 kilometers. It takes a short while to cross Chongshan Yinxiu to Shangleft Yixiu Bridge. There are also beautiful scenery along the way, which you will miss by car.

Yuantouzhu is one of the most beautiful flowers of sea in the world. The scenery of Yuantouzhu is natural and combines the essence of Taihu Lake scenery. There is also a great contemporary poet Guo Moruo's "Taihu Lake is a wonderful place, after all, in Yuantou". Looking at the mountains and rivers of Taihu Lake here, wouldn't it be fun?

The Cherry Blossom Pavilion is surrounded by cherry blossoms in the Cherry Blossom Valley. The tower is 5 floors high and is the best place to view the cherry blossoms from above.

The Cherry Blossom Pavilion is located in the core area of the Yuantouzhu Cherry Blossom Forest. It is a landmark architectural landscape in the Cherry Blossom Forest. Climb the Cherry Blossom Pavilion and look around. The cherry blossom sea covers the mountains and plains. It is the best cherry blossom attraction in the Yuantouzhu Scenic Area.

Entering Chongshan Yinxiu, there is an unknown flower on both sides of the lake, which is very spectacular.

The cherry blossoms around the Cherry Blossom Pavilion are covered with wind chimes, which are tinkling by the wind, adding to the scene.

Climb to the top of the Cherry Pavilion and overlook the panoramic view of the sea of flowers,

The Cherry Blossom Festival is held every year from March to May, during which there will be local song and dance performances in the square in front of the Cherry Blossom Pavilion.

On the slopes on both sides of the Shilihua Trail, patches of rapeseed flowers and small purple flowers are planted, which intersect with cherry blossoms of red white powder and other colors, making them more beautiful.

On the Shilihua Trail, many tourists dressed in Han costumes stood on ladders and took photos, adding another beautiful scenery to the place.

Cherry Blossom Valley is located at the northern foot of Luding Mountain in Yuantouzhu Scenic Area, adjacent to the China-Japan Cherry Blossom Friendship Forest and integrated into one. It covers an area of 200,000 square meters and is home to more than 30,000 cherry blossoms of 68 varieties. It is the largest cherry blossom exclusive garden in China.

It was nearly six o'clock, the Ten Miles Flower Trail. At this moment, the tourists had gradually dispersed, and Sufu had become our exclusive theater, and we danced passionately.

Stroll on both sides of the flower path for ten miles to capture the beauty of the limited seasons

In the evening, we climbed the hillside next to the Ten Mile Flower Path and greedily enjoyed another scene brought by the sunset to the cherry blossoms all over the mountains and wild.

Every spring, Yuantouzhu, located next to Taihu Lake, is surrounded by pink romance. Tourists flock to Yuantouzhu just to see the blooming sea of cherry blossoms.

I brought all the guys on this trip. The three batteries of the drone were all gone, so I used the smart cloud smooth x to take a selfie.

Starting from March 19, Yuantouzhu has opened the Cherry Blossom Night Park. Tourists can play until 9 o'clock at night and slowly enjoy it in the night with the colorful lights. At this time, the cherry blossoms look even more charming.

The next day 23/3 Wuxi-Xinghua After running around Yuantouzhu last night, I slept until past 8 o'clock the next day before getting up. After breakfast in the hotel restaurant, I decided to drive to Xinghua Qianduo Scenic Area in Taizhou City, which has one of the most beautiful rapeseed flower bases in China. Before we even reached Qianduo Scenic Area, the rapeseed flowers along the way attracted our attention. At the exit of Guangling Town, we couldn't wait to leave the highway and come to a field of rapeseed flowers to soak up some.

This is the first time my boss has seen these green wheat seedlings and broad bean trees.

Long pose again.

We drove into the highway again and drove for less than an hour, finally arrived at Qianduo Scenic Area. After packing our luggage at the inn, having lunch, I bought tickets to enter the scenic area. Because on the way to the visitor center, I found many people queuing up to take the boat at the dock, so I didn't buy a cruise ticket. After entering the scenic area, there were also local customs and cultural performances at the ferry terminal.

After watching the performance, we used our usual hiking energy on the ridge, slowly walked deep into the scenic area, gradually moved away from the crowd, separated from the noisy environment, and began to let go of ourselves and play leisurely.

Gradually, the sunset slowly moved closer to the horizon, and the afterglow of the sunset slowly dissipated.

There are only two of us left in the entire park, using the last few batteries to come to the heart-shaped landscape

Dear, are you willing to accompany me throughout the great rivers and mountains of the motherland for the rest of your life? I am willing

On the third day, 24/3 Xinghua-Yangzhou After breakfast, I wandered around Dongwang Village for a while

I originally wanted to go to the Lizhong Water Forest Scenic Area to see the neat and neat metasequoia, but when I realized that there was also a Luyang Lake Wetland Park in Yangzhou, which contained the same metasequoia, I gave up Lizhong Water Forest Park and drove to Yangzhou to Luyang Lake Wetland Park.

Entering Luyang Lake, I saw a barrier woven by tall metasequoia trees. Unfortunately, the rainy season had not yet entered, and black mud had already emerged on the lake. Green buds had just emerged from the branches of the metasequoia trees, standing on the bank, looking at the neat trees on the lake, like a well-trained army reviewing.

Say goodbye to Luyang Lake, I listened to Tong Li's fireworks and went to Yangzhou in March. I crossed the Grand Canal dug by the Sui Dynasty with a history of thousands of years. I entered Yangzhou City, which has been flocked to by literati and literati in the past. I got on a rickshaw and wandered around the ancient city.

Speaking of Yangzhou, my first impression came from Li Bai's poem:

My old friend bid farewell to the Yellow Crane Tower in the west, and fireworks fell under Yangzhou in March.

The lonely sail shadows the blue sky in the distance, and only the Yangtze River flows across the sky.

"Fireworks fall under Yangzhou in March". When you come to Yangzhou in spring, you must visit Slender West Lake. Slender West Lake is a long and narrow river. It was a must-visit place in the south of the Yangtze River during the Qing Dynasty Qianlong Dynasty. Here, you can walk along the river to enjoy the natural beauty, or walk into pavilions and pavilions to taste the poems, paintings and ink treasures of literati and literati of generations. You can also sit on the boat and feel the leisurely mood of Emperor Qianlong when he visited the lake.

I entered from the South Gate on Dahongqiao Road and started sightseeing along the Lake Ring Road by the lake

Slender West Lake is a famous lake garden with beautiful natural landscapes. The green willows here are shaded in spring, accompanied by camellia, pomegranate, rhododendrons, peach and other flower trees, attracting tourists from all over the world to visit and enjoy flowers every year.

The middle of the willow trunk was empty, and a small tree grew on the empty trunk.

The willows on both sides of the strait are already covered with green willow buds and leaves. Unfortunately, it is March of the Gregorian calendar, and the willows have not yet blossomed, let alone the spring breeze blowing the willows and the flowers flying down. From a distance, catkins flying like smoke and mist in the sky are over.

Wuting Bridge, also known as Lianhua Bridge, has a history of more than 200 years. There are five wind pavilions built on the bridge. Every full moon night, each of the fifteen bridge holes under Wuting Bridge contains a moon. Together with the white tower next to it form the symbol of Slender West Lake.

The 24th Bridge is another famous attraction in the scenic area. It comes from Du Mu's poem,"The 24th Bridge is bright and bright on the night, where does the jade man teach to blow the whistle?" The original bridge no longer exists, but now it is a rebuilt bridge.

This was also a must-visit place for Emperor Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty when he went to Jiangnan. The architectural landscapes such as the Dahongqiao Bridge, Diaoyutai, White Pagoda, and Xichun Terrace we see today have left behind stories that are inseparable from Emperor Qianlong.

The cherry blossoms on Jianzhen Road in Yangzhou bloom so brightly that both sides of the road are full of vitality. They are no worse than Yuantouzhu, and they are free. Cherry blossoms are based on Jianzhen Road and Xihu Road, which run the east and west. People often stop to take photos under the cherry trees on both sides of the road. The white flowers are like snow and pollen is like Dai, which is gorgeous on the entire avenue. Cherry blossoms are in full bloom and bright like clouds, with gentle pink embraces everything. Look at the cherry blossoms blooming one after another, and the cherry blossoms are falling in the wind. It seems as if snow has fallen. The trees are covered with pink, white and red cherry blossoms, hanging all over the branches, making the spirit of spring flutter.

Day 4 Yangzhou-Nanjing

I knew Nanjing from the elementary school textbooks about the first Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge independently built by my country for both highways and railways. I was full of curiosity about this bridge since its size. What kind of bridge is it that can make the entire Chinese people proud of it.

After leaving the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge, I wanted to go to the Nanjing Massacre Victims Memorial Hall to give myself a class that remembered history and mission. However, when I arrived, I realized that I had to make an appointment in advance. Today was no longer ready, so I had to make an appointment for tomorrow morning. Go to the Ming City Wall instead.

When Zhu Yuanzhang built the city wall, the cornucopia donated by Shen Wanshan, who was so rich and powerful that the country was buried in the east corner of Wengcheng.

Climbing the ancient city wall, there were not many tourists, and Lianglaokou began a leisurely tour again.

At the beginning of the lanterns, the landscape lights on the ancient city wall are also very beautiful.

Seeing that it was getting late, I could see the scene clearly on the wall. Going down to the square, the scene performance of the ancient city's Guangying Collection officially began

I have eaten Nanjing specialty dishes near Nanjing Confucius Temple, so I can check in on the way

Day 5, 26/3 Nanjing-Shenzhen 20:15-22.: 40 CZ6642

The Memorial Hall for the Victims of the Nanjing Massacre was built to remember the brutal Nanjing Massacre committed by the Japanese invaders after they captured Nanjing, the capital of China. It is a demonstration, site-type special historical memorial hall for the Chinese people to inherit the disaster of the entire nation. It is also the only one in China. A special historical exhibition hall about the Nanjing Massacre by the Japanese invaders and the host site of the National Memorial Day. Arrived at the appointed time, donated money to buy flowers, followed the route and carefully looked at the evil deeds left by the little Japan in our country, and deeply felt that without a strong country, how could we have a happy life?

It was already noon when the memorial hall came out, and the boss chose a beautiful village very close to the city-Bulao Village as the last stop for our trip. The Laoshan National Forest Park in Pukou, Nanjing, stretches for hundreds of miles, has undulating mountains, deep canyons, green ancient trees, and beautiful bamboos. It is known as "Nanjing Green Lung, Jiangbei Pearl". Bulao Village, hidden deep in Laoshan Forest Park, is a unique tourist resort.

At 8:10, we boarded the China Southern Airlines flight with our satisfied and went home to pick up bricks.
