Yangzhou

"My old friend bid farewell to the Yellow Crane Tower in the west, and fireworks fell in Yangzhou in March. "Li Bai's famous song through the ages adds to the infinite charm of Yangzhou, a famous ancient city.

Let's go!

The Chengdu Plain is gradually fading away

Join the sisters

When you arrive in Yangzhou, Fuchun Tea House's morning tea is a must-see.

After ten o'clock in the morning, we still have to queue up and wait, which shows how good business is.

Kuilongzhu Tea, Fuchun Double Juice, Wuding Bao, etc. The most important thing you can't give up is the "crab yellow soup bun".

Order something else for morning tea the next day

The establishment of Yangzhou began in the Spring and Autumn Period more than 2400 years ago. The splendid history and culture left Yangzhou with a large number of scenic spots and rich tourism resources.

Stroll on Dongguan Street after morning tea

Geyuan located on Dongguan Street: This private garden of Yangzhou salt merchants 'residence in the Qing Dynasty is famous for its planting of green bamboos and its rockery in the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter. It was built into a residential garden by Huang Zhiyun, the chief salt merchant of Lianghuai, in the 23rd year of Jiaqing of the Qing Dynasty (AD 1818).

There is also the delicious food on Dongguan Street: this is the "rough tea and light rice" that we waited in line for more than an hour to eat. Yangzhou's Huaiyang cuisine is also good, so I won't go into them here.

Spring is always the most beautiful in ancient poems. Everything wakes up, the spring is shining brightly, everything is just beginning, and everything is full of hope. In this spring, you should go to Yangzhou to have a look. This is the most beautiful time there. The weather there, the smoke willows there, and the Qionghua there all carry a strong atmosphere of spring.

Yangzhou's shared battery car is also very convenient, but I have never ridden it before and dare not try it.

In Yangzhou, I met the "World Horticultural Exposition".

The Yangzhou section of the ancient canal is the oldest section of the entire canal. The current canals in Yangzhou are mostly consistent with the ancient Hangou route more than 2000 years ago, and are completely consistent with the canals dug by Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. They are 125 kilometers long from Guazhou to Baoying. Among them, the Yangzhou Urban area section of the Ancient Canal is about 30 kilometers long from Guazhou to Wantou, constituting the famous "Three Yangzhou Bays." This section of the canal is the oldest and has many historical relics and cultural landscapes.

Let's talk about Slender West Lake, whose original name is Baoshan Lake. According to the book, Slender West Lake was named in the early Qing Dynasty. It probably means that it is called "Slender West Lake" because its watercourse is curved and long and located in the northwest of Yangzhou City.

He Garden, located at No. 66 Xuningmen Street, Yangzhou City, Jiangsu Province, is also known as "Jixiao Villa". It is a Chinese classical garden building built in the middle of the Qing Dynasty. It is known as the "First Garden in the Late Qing Dynasty." It covers an area of more than 14,000 square meters and a building area of more than 7000 square meters. He Garden was built by He Zhiyan during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. The stone mountain room is a masterpiece of Master Shi Tao's stacked mountains.

The whole garden of Heyuan is divided into four parts: East Garden, West Garden, Garden Residence Courtyard, and Pianshi Mountain House. The Pianshi Mountain House is located in the south of East Garden, and the Garden Residence Courtyard is surrounded by East Garden, West Garden and Pianshi Mountain House. The two-story building and compound corridor in the garden are integrated with the houses in front.

The weather is good today, and the few sisters are very willful when they visit Slender West Lake again.

qiandao Lake

The five-day trip to Yangzhou is over, and it is also a good idea to arrange a three-day trip to Qiandao Lake for the return trip.

Qiandao Lake (Xin 'an River Reservoir) is located in Chun'an County, Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province. A small part connects the northwest of Jiande City. It is an artificial lake built for the construction of the Xin 'an River Hydropower Station to intercept the lower reaches of the Xin' an River. It was built in 1955 and completed in 1960, with 1078 islands.

Landing on Meifeng Island: Meifeng Island is the best place to climb and watch the lake in the Qiandao Lake Scenic Area

At the West Observation Deck, the islands are densely covered from top to bottom, and the scenery is excellent. You can personally experience the artistic conception of the golden belt with green mountains, green waters. Looking across the Qiandao Lake, you can see the islands floating on the water like plum blossoms. The dotted islands in front of you are like stars in the Milky Way. The larger island harbors crisscross each other, drawing a white sand beach between the green islands and green waters. The arc of "one cannot see the true face of the Qiandao Islands without going to the Meifeng Islands."

Climbing high to view the lake: panoramic view on Tianyu Mountain

Fresh morning

Going home: There is no airport in Qiandao Lake and you need to transfer to Hangzhou or Shanghai. Instead of going through all the trouble, it is better to take the bullet train directly from Qiandao Lake Station to Chengdu East Railway Station, which takes 12 hours and 30 minutes to arrive.

The nine-day trip came to a successful conclusion.
