Yangzhou East Railway Station is not big, with only one entrance and exit, and a row of bus terminals comes out of the exit. Transportation is very convenient, with a unit price of 2 yuan. At the entrance are Chunfeng Shili Road and Fireworks March Road. The river next to the high-speed railway station is not the Yangtze River or the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal!

The long Wenchang Road runs through the entire Yangzhou city and connects the East Station and Yangzhou Station

Day 1 Standard tourist tours: Heyuan-Erfenmingyue Building (you can not go)-Pishi Street-Dongguan Street, walk until your legs become soft

In Yangzhou, the inescapable plot of the Grand Canal and the inescapable feelings of "The Legend of Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" are the most appropriate place to stay at the ancient crossing of Dongguan on the banks of the Grand Canal.

The bus drove to Dongguan Gudu, where there was a crowd of people, tour groups, and serious traffic jams. What is more puzzling is that the traffic lights at the intersection connecting the gates of two popular attractions are only open during the weekend and during the day, and the rest of the time you can cross the road based on your skills.

After entering the Mercure Hotel, it has a completely otherworldly atmosphere. The waiter is very polite. Whether it is the doorman, aunt or restaurant staff, they will say hello when they meet, and they are very down-to-earth and enthusiastic.

There is no swimming pool, and there is a pool of water in the narrow residential buildings outdoors.

Mini children's playgrounds are also very popular

The rooms with river view are all queen beds. Our room can see a corner of the Grand Canal. Compared to the free minbar and drinking mineral water, the freshly ground coffee machine in the lobby that charges a lot is a bit stingy, but it doesn't matter. It's also my pleasure to check in to local niche cafes. Overall, apart from the small room, there are no other problems.

Mercure has an excellent location, 2-3KM away from Slender West Lake, Geyuan, Heyuan, and Wenchang Pavilion. I once dreamed about riding Yangzhou City and tragically discovered that public bicycles are a rare product in Yangzhou, and there are many public battery cars. Unfortunately, we don't know how to drive it, and we take 14000+ steps every day...

At noon, we will eat in Biyuan next door. The decoration looks elegant, the price is not expensive, the taste is good, and there is no need to queue for meals.

The ancient canal near Heyuan,"Qianlong Canal Qionghua Road"

As a top 3 attraction ranked in Yangzhou, it is very popular and has many individual tourists and group tours. A typical Jiangnan private garden, if there are few people, please explain it! I finished shopping in less than half an hour after following the crowd. Yang took a good look and took two hours to come out. He Yuan is also the filming place of "Marry the Opposite Man in the Wrong Pallet"

Instead of going to Luoyang, you can taste peonies in Yangzhou. In Yangzhou in spring, there are more people than flowers!

Xiyang Building in He Garden

On the way to find WC, I accidentally ran into this secluded alley

There is also a cafe in the alley. Adjacent to He Garden, it is full on weekends, and there are not many seats themselves.

Fortunately, there was an empty space in the open air at the door. I sat at the door to rest my legs and swipe my phone. A 30-yuan cup of latte is a high consumption in Yangzhou, but its value lies in cleanliness.

While swiping my mobile phone, I swiped to Yueming Tower,"The world is in March and the moon is bright on the night, and the scoundrel is Yangzhou." It was only more than 200 meters away from the cafe and made an appointment with Student Yang. Note: The alleys shown on the map, even XX Road, are really small alleys where cars cannot be used in Yangzhou and are only accessible to 1-2 people.

Students who want to go to Yueming Building, please remember to remember this sign, remember to turn right, and not go straight. I didn't pay attention at first. I always thought that the thing on the map would always be a normal road, but as a result, I walked farther and farther and farther, and it kept going.

Although the alley is small, there are many battery cars coming and going, and the speed is not slow. You must pay attention to safety.

The door of Yueming Tower is very small. Remember the roast duck restaurant next door. The park is closed at night! There is no moon to see!

Yueming Tower is a super mini garden completely confused by ancient poems. What you see is what you get, it's just this big. Free, there are really few people, so it is suitable for taking antique wedding photos. Between Heyuan and Pishi Street, you can come by on the way without having to come specially.

Guangling Street, full of the flavor of ancient county town, is a market, real, and mixed with people and vehicles.

Pishi Street is a popular Internet celebrity + trend + antique street nowadays. There are many people, but it is not a pedestrian street. Battery cars flow endlessly, and the speed is very fast, which is quite dangerous. The same is true for Dongguan Street, where people are denser. I don't know what people driving battery cars here think. There are so many people, but driving is not fun.

There are many cafes and beverage shops on Pishi Street, but there are really no places to eat dinner. Yangzhou Man Cultural and Creative Store

Dongguan Street is crowded at night, and it is the same on the next weekday morning

City walk, which was temporarily planned for Day 2, is full of bad conditions

Renfengli (you don't want to go)-Xiaoqinhuai River (passing by)-Jiaochang (planted with grass, but very ordinary)-Siwang Pavilion/Wenchang Pavilion-Lvyang Hostel (Guoqing Road, Ganquan Road)-Dongguan Street Shangfang Jiewa Drink coffee

We couldn't appreciate the experience of getting up at 5:30, getting our number at 7:00, and having morning tea until 8-9:00. The hotel breakfast noodle shop, steamed buns are produced by Garden Tea House, and you can experience Yangzhou morning tea without leaving home. At around 8 o'clock in the morning on weekdays, there was actually a line in the breakfast room. This was the first time I met so many people in the breakfast room on a weekday.

Yangchun noodles and shrimp wontons were delicious, but they were too salty, and they were later mixed with mineral water before finishing them. No wonder there are so many salt merchants in Yangzhou.

Student Yang went to the garden in the morning and strolled around for more than two hours. On weekdays, it was also crowded with people, only a little quiet at noon.

I suddenly decided to city walk and go to a bunch of alleys that I don't need to go specifically.

Renfengli, a small fresh alley built according to Pishi Street, has a very low-key entrance, a very narrow alley, and there are indeed very few people. After walking for a while, I found it boring, so I turned around and went to the teaching ground

Passing through the Little Qinhuai River, which is much narrower than the Big Qinhuai River. There are indigenous residents living around it, which has a taste of spring in the south of the Yangtze River.

Mini garden at Wenchang Crossing

Wenchang Pavilion is 400-500 meters away from the teaching ground on foot and one bus stop away. However, the bus station is still 200- 300M away from Wenchang Pavilion. Opposite the Wenchang Pavilion bus station is Siwang Pavilion. Next to Siwang Pavilion is the famous Yiyuan Morning Tea Club.

I accidentally found a shared bicycle near Siwangting, but I couldn't ride it anymore. I took a taxi to Green Yang Hostel on Guoqing Road and passed by Wenchang Pavilion, the iconic landscape of Yangzhou.

Twelve years ago, I also took a special taxi from the hotel to see Wenchang Pavilion.

Personally, I prefer the city walk on Guoqing Road and Ganquan Road, which has a feeling of traveling through a county town in the 1980s and 1990s.

Students who want to go to the Green Yang Hostel nostalgic should remember this roast goose stall at the entrance of the alley. The bus stop at the entrance is called the Green Yang Hostel Station. It can be seen that it has left a strong mark in history. Note that motor vehicles can only drive in one direction from north to south on Guoqing Road/Dujiang Road.

There is an endless stream of nostalgic individual tourists coming to the now-closed hotels.

Walking along this alley and turning left will lead to Ganquan Road. It feels like time has stopped.

Here is the "Gonghe Spring" of Yangzhou N Spring. Excluding the blessings of time-honored brands, they are ordinary community restaurants. There is no need to queue for lunch at noon, but you have to share tables. The price is cheap, the environment is noisy, and there are all Yangzhou signature dishes, and the taste is okay. If you pass by, you can try time-honored brands. Gonghechun has many branches in Yangzhou.

Dongguan Street at noon

In the afternoon, we met with Student Yang in Guanxiang, a branch lane of Dongguan Street. This slightly wide alley is now like a cafe street. We chose to lift the tiles above for coffee.

On weekday afternoons, we booked a small terrace. The store has a separate toilet and bakes its own beans. The price is also conscience in the scenic area. At this moment, I truly experienced Yangzhou's slowness.

Next door is Qionghua Temple, which blooms from April to May, a bit like a smaller white hydrangea.

The main entrance of Qionghua Temple is on Wenchang Road, and tickets are collected. It wasn't the flowering period, we didn't go in.

Yechun has a store at Yangzhou East Railway Station and supports 12306 to order food in advance. Students who don't have time to experience it in the city can also experience it at the train station. There are very few people, and it is said that the food is very slow, so you have to leave enough time.

2011 and 2023, the second brush of Yangzhou City. The spring breeze is ten miles away from Yangzhou Road, but the spring breeze is not as good as yours.
