After entering Jiangsu, first go to Nanjing, then take the Shanghai-Nanjing Expressway to Suzhou, Shanghai to Shanghai, and Shanghai take the coastal expressway back to Beijing, which is more convenient.
Nanjing Moxinjiekou, Yuhuatai, Presidential Palace, Xuanwu Lake, Hunan Road for snacks, Zijinshan, Zhonghua Gate
Suzhou Mopingjiang Road and Shantang Street are ancient streets, which are totally different from Beijing. Then drive to Huqiu, and go to a night-mooring near maple bridge in the evening. There is a lingering garden next to Fengqiao. When you are ready to leave for Xitang, take a half-day trip to Canglang Pavilion. Suzhou is closer to Xitang, take Sujiahang Expressway, and exit at Lili. National Highway 318 goes east and passes through the ancient town of Lili. It takes about 5 minutes. By the way, you can take a rest in Lili and see Liu Yazi's former residence. The night view of Xitang is very beautiful.
From Xitang to Shanghai, Shanghai is mainly about eating in Yuyuan Garden, shopping on Nanjing Road, watching the night scene on the Bund, the Oriental Pearl, and drinking in Xintiandi at night. If you have enough time, you can also visit the ancient towns around Shanghai.
I am from Xitang, living in Suzhou and studying in Nanjing.
