Introduction to Suzhou and Wuxi tourist attractions:

In March, the sky is filled with cherry blossoms.

This is cherry blossom season.

If I can’t go to Japan, then I can only pretend that I am in Japan and go to Wuxi Yuantouzhu to live up to the wonderful spring and take a day trip to enjoy cherry blossoms.

In late March, even in Jiangnan, it is still a bit chilly in the morning and evening.

Fortunately, the sun was just right that day.

October.

The ground is covered with red maples and colorful fallen leaves.

I am very close to Wuxi and have been there many times over the years.

Every time I go to so many places, there are some new discoveries every time.

I have been here with my friends, classmates, and family members in the city of Wuxi. I have always had deep feelings for this city.

Wuxi in October was just as chilly as March at that time.

Fortunately, the sun was just right that day.

4 About accommodation

I have been to Wuxi many times, and I roughly know where it is more convenient, so this time I chose Thank Inn Chain Hotel Wuxi Suning Tianyu Plaza Branch. This hotel is located in Building 3, Suning Tianyu Plaza, Fengbin Road, Liangxi District (opposite the 101 Hospital), adjacent to Wuxi Xihui Scenic Area. It is more convenient to get to various scenic spots in the city here. Taking a taxi or Didi only costs about ten yuan.

The hotel lobby is actually quite interesting. There is a long table where guests can rest and wait. There is a bookshelf on the wall behind the table. There are many books. When you are bored or waiting, you can just grab a book and read it for a while.

There is actually a gramophone in the lobby, which gives it a retro feel, but it is a pity that it is just a decoration. It would be really interesting to put a record to play music.

There are many green plants here, and they are still full of life even in autumn.

The front desk staff at the hotel are very enthusiastic and have a great service attitude. At first glance, I thought this background wall was a blackboard.

Go up to the 6th floor and walk through the long corridor to your room. The hallway was carpeted, so dragging boxes made almost no sound.

We stayed in a double bed room, which is on the 6th floor. You can take the elevator directly up.

Wuxi Thank Inn Chain Hotel Suning Tianyu Plaza Branch has several room types, such as twin rooms, double rooms, family rooms, etc., which can meet the travel needs of most people, especially those who are still traveling. There are themed rooms, which are very interestingly decorated, some are very romantic and some are very cute, you can choose according to your needs.

The double bed in the double room is quite big. It can sleep two people without any problem. In addition to 2 pillows, there is also a big red pillow on the bed. How can you not take some beautiful photos in a place like this? Where are the photos. Sitting on the edge of the bed and hugging the pillow, the advantage of using a wide angle is that you have a pair of long legs!

The washing area is divided into wet and dry areas, and the toilet and shower room are also separated. There is a large mirror in front of the basin, which is very convenient for getting up early to do makeup and so on.

Take a photo in the corner. ?

There is also a sofa and a round table by the window, which can be used for me to code. As diligent as I am, the first thing I do is turn on the computer to write.

Open the curtains, the sun is just right outside. In the past few days of autumn, both the temperature and the weather have been very comfortable, and it really feels like the refreshing air of autumn in the south of the Yangtze River.

Sit by the window and take a photo, letting the sunlight shine in through the thin sorghum and shine on your face and every corner of the house.

After resting in the room, it’s time to go out for a walk around Wuxi and feel the great sunshine.

When I came back in the evening, it was already dark and the lights in the hotel were on. It was not the same feeling as during the day.

The place where we had breakfast the next morning was originally a Hunan restaurant, which probably cooperated with the hotel, so it was provided free of charge to hotel guests every morning. The next morning, just go to the front desk with your room card to get a breakfast coupon. The variety is not very rich, but there is an omelette machine so you can fry your own eggs, which I quite like.

5 Hey, the cherry blossoms in Yuantouzhu are blooming just right in March

Hey, the cherry blossoms in Yuantouzhu are blooming just right in March

Wuxi. In fact, I have been to Wuxi several times in the early years. At first, I went to Wuxi to participate in a national art competition. It was winter at that time. In the twelfth lunar month, I carried my drawing board and paint box and crowded with tens of thousands of candidates. The next time I went to Wuxi was on September 11, 2012. On that day that year, I met my idol for the first time in the city of Wuxi, hugged and took photos with him for the first time. Later, I became very fond of this city. This time, I want to meet again after a long absence, and I want to go to Yuantouzhu, which has the best cherry blossom viewing spot in China. During the blooming season, go see the cherry blossoms raining all over the garden.

When taking pictures of flowers, I like to take some partial shots.

Yuantouzhu has always been an excellent place to enjoy cherry blossoms. On weekends, there are an unusually large number of people going there. Before eight o'clock, there was a long queue at the bus stop. After getting on the bus, I was filled with Wu Nong's soft words, and I couldn't tell whether it was Suzhou dialect, Shanghai dialect, or Wuxi's local language. My native place is Suzhou, and I went to university here for several years, but I still can’t speak Wu dialect. My father always laughed at me for being stupid. I'm afraid I won't be able to learn those soft and waxy languages ????after all. Arrive at Yuantouzhu at 8:30. Pass by Lihu Park. Sent a message to a friend thousands of miles away. Ask her if she still remembers the funny things we did there at this time three years ago. That was really the best time in my star-chasing years. I have idols, I have friends, and I can travel all over the country and visit the streets.

I was walking on the path in the park wearing a Hanfu. There were not many people around me. I am me and I am just me.

If you come to Wuxi, you must visit Taihu Lake, and if you come to Taihu Lake, you must visit Yuantouzhu. Yuantouzhu in March is undoubtedly the most crowded time. After all, this is one of the three major cherry blossom viewing spots in the world. Neon Country is too far away, so it’s not a bad idea to watch a cherry blossom shower on a small island by Taihu Lake.

The best time to view the cherry blossoms in Yuantouzhu is from late March to mid-April every year. During this time, the road leading to Yuantouzhu is often jammed with traffic, and visitors to the park cannot avoid it.

I entered the park early this year and could only see the early blooming cherry blossoms. The first two pictures were taken in Yuantouzhu in late March last year.

There are not many early cherry blossoms in bloom, so I have to take great pains to take photos of them. With all kinds of blocking in front and various angles to find movements, it is really not easy to take a satisfactory photo.

Yuantouzhu is located on the edge of Taihu Lake. There is a small island in the scenic area called Taihu Fairy Island. You need to take a boat to visit the island. The tickets we bought include boat tickets and there is no additional charge.

The island is not big, and there are some places where you can get close to the lake. It was already five o'clock in the afternoon when we arrived. The sun was gradually setting in the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the water of Taihu Lake. I stood in front of the tree and by the water, dressed in Hanfu, alone and independent.

There is a small island in the center of Yuantouzhu Lake, which can be reached by boat. The boat ticket is included in the admission fee, so there is no need to spend extra money. When we got on the boat, the boat was not sailing yet, and there were countless red-billed gulls surrounding the boat. They were asking people for food, and even flew with the boat when it was sailing.

When I was recording a video, I had the illusion that I was on the Erhai Lake in Dali.

Taihu Fairy Island. It was almost evening at this time, and the sky began to be dyed red by the red clouds, which looked like a fire burning clouds. It was very beautiful.

We are the last group of people to go to the island. There will be the last ship to return in a while. If we miss it, we may have to spend a night on the island.

The weather is great, with blue sky, white clouds and the afterglow of the setting sun. The warm light casts a beautiful red color on the archway.

The sun will eventually set, and the day will eventually come to an end.

In Taihu Lake, in this lake and mountains, slowly, life.

6Coming and going, only Nanchang Street never gets tired of it

Coming and going, only Nanchang Street never tires of it

Nanchang Street is an ancient street in Wuxi, located in the center of Liangxi District, Wuxi City, Jiangsu Province. In the center of Wuxi, where there are many high-rise buildings, the gentle, long and antique Nanchang Street is a tender place for the soul. Qingmingqiao Historical and Cultural District in Nanchang Street is a typical Jiangnan water town beside the Grand Canal. It is known as "Jiangnan Water Lane, the Out-of-Place Canal". The neighborhood is composed of areas with rich historical and cultural heritage such as Nanchang Street, Wuxi Section of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, Nanxiatang, Bodu Port, and Dayao Road. The "Qingming Bridge", which was built in the Ming Dynasty and runs on both sides of the Feijia Canal, is an important symbol in the neighborhood.

I have been to Nanchang Street many times. It is more atmospheric at night than during the day. The lights are on, the quiet singing of guitars by the ancient canal, and the rocking of the oar boats. Time is so slow. Walk slowly.

Nanchang Street is really suitable for girls like us who love taking pictures. Time flies while walking and taking photos. It's a pity that this time, the stall selling cotton candy is no longer there, but those sweet tastes still remain in my heart.

Travel Tips: Nanchang Street is located in the urban area, not far from Chong'an Temple and Nanchan Temple.

Nanchang Street still maintains the double chessboard urban pattern of parallel roads and rivers, retaining the characteristics of a Jiangnan water city with small bridges, flowing water, people and deep ancient alleys. There are hundreds of historical buildings and nine ancient buildings. Bridges etc.

Nanchang Street is the essence of the traditional style of the ancient canal water town. It is an important link in the history of Wu culture and the development of the Grand Canal. It is a witness to the prosperous water transportation center in the south of the Yangtze River. It is an important chapter in writing the development of Wuxi's national industry and commerce. It is the research base of Jiangnan brick kiln group.

Even the land under your feet here has a sense of age. Walking on it feels like a period of time has passed.

A place with lots of water must have many bridges, and these two types of bridges must complement each other.

Nanchang Street, which is full of Jiangnan city style, was once an ancient post road with clattering horseshoes. Machanglong is an important water and land station because it is located at an important water and land point.

Nanchang Street, where people living on the canal thrive, is still full of vitality. This ten-mile ancient street has now become the epitome of Wu culture, water culture, and Buddhist culture in the ancient city of Wuxi over thousands of years.

I took photos on the bridge and admired the water life of the residents along the coast. Nowadays, people living in Zhenshui naturally no longer live on water, and many of the former landscapes can no longer be seen. The main means of travel in the past has become a ride for tourists to experience, but the people living here still retain the appearance of the Jiangnan water town to the greatest extent.

Avoiding the main street, I just walked around the streets and alleys at will.

Away from the hustle and bustle of the main street, and far away from the business on the main street, it is very quiet here, and the people here are also very quiet.

End of 7

I once had too many ideas about traveling and there were too many places I wanted to visit. Later, due to lack of financial resources due to studies, I slowly settled in nearby places.

Although I have lived in Jiangnan for more than 20 years, I have seen enough scenery in Jiangnan, but every time the apricot blossoms drizzle and the grass grows and the orioles fly, I still cannot help but be struck by the beauty of this area. There seems to be some understanding of the ancients' preference for Jiangnan back then. Although today's Jiangnan seems to me to be more of a world of steel and concrete, it does not hinder the beauty of the suburbs. Going out more often is my advice to myself. As a girl, I hope my horizons will be broadened. I hope that my life will never be boring, not to be envied by others, but only so that I will not regret the boredom of youth in the future.
