Yangzhou Lean West Lake scenic spot for many tourists is one of the must-go card attractions, where you can feel the rich cultural temperament of the Jiangnan water town, you can walk on the greenway, you can also watch a variety of niche attractions, the following to share with you a detailed play strategy guide.

Vacation time in Yangzhou always starts with morning tea. Yangzhou deserves to be the culinary capital of the world, and many people, like me, want to go to Yangzhou once just for the food.

Five-day trip to Yangzhou, hit the interesting garden tea house, Ye Chun Tea House, Garden Restaurant, Ye Chun Red House Banquet, Lion House, Yangzhou Banquet, Yangzhou Shangri-La Hotel Lobster Banquet, Nine Furnace Split Seat, Meal Ying Villa ...... The Huaiyang cuisine and slow life in Yangzhou are memorable.

But since you've been to Yangzhou, it's a must to visit the famous Slim West Lake once.

The Slim West Lake is a national 5A-level tourist attraction, so what is the origin of the Slim West Lake and the West Lake in Hangzhou?

It turns out that in the first year of the Qianlong era, Hangzhou poet Wang Hangzhou came to Yangzhou, in the full of the beauty of this place, and the hometown of the West Lake, compared to the poem said:

"The poplar is constantly connected to the remnants of the wildlife, wild geese teeth, rainbow bridge just like a picture. It is also a pot of gold, so it should be called the thin West Lake."

It's better to come early than to come coincidentally. after June 1, the thin west lake into the off-season, the ticket originally 100 yuan, as long as 60 yuan off-season.

Many tourists who have come to Yangzhou, have been to hit the Slim West Lake. Then this classic Slim West Lake, what is different play? Take you to see.

The Slender West Lake is mainly divided into 14 major attractions, including Wuting Bridge, Twenty-four Bridges, Lotus Pond, Diaoyutai and so on. Because of the long walk, it is recommended to wear well-fitting and comfortable shoes.

In Yangzhou, sleep until nine o'clock to go out, and then spend more than an hour to eat a breakfast, to the Lean West Lake scenic area has more than ten o'clock. I bought a ticket, not to tour first, past the Wuting Bridge, to rent a Chinese dress.

There are hanboks, cheongsams, etc., and the rental fee for clothing alone is 50 yuan an hour, which is very cost-effective.

Of course, you can also choose additional makeup and styling for another 80 yuan, or a photographer to follow you around.

Choosing a favorite Hanbok and getting our hair styled, the three of us, women from Suzhou, Chongqing and Guangzhou, walked and strolled along.

Walking on the Wuting Bridge attracted a lot of stares and all kinds of sneak peeks.

Thin West Lake, formerly known as Safeguard Lake, was included in the World Heritage List in 2014. It covers an area of nearly 2,000 acres, with the tour area alone covering 100 hectares.

From the "Wuting Bridge" Hanfu Square, you can walk up to the White Pagoda. Wearing cloth shoes, swinging a fan, skirt fluttering, enjoying the mood of the ancients touring the Slim West Lake.

Unconsciously walked to the twenty-four bridges. Just this twenty-four bridges, not 24 bridges, which is a landmark landscape of the Slender West Lake.

Twenty-four bridges are single-hole arch bridges with white jade railings, which are masterpieces of ancient bridge architecture. Du Mu's poem, "Twenty-four Bridges on a bright moonlit night, where does the Jade Man teach blowjob," is a popular favorite.

In early June, hydrangeas bloom all over the roadside at the Slender West Lake. This is a natural oxygen bar with dense shade. You can see the sunlight playing hide-and-seek among the leaves, and at noon you can order a few small dishes at the "Ying Ying Villa" in the scenic area of the lake, where the environment is good.

This restaurant is located in the Slender West Lake near the east gate, the southwest corner of Wan Garden, covers an area of about 3,000 square meters. Its appearance is modeled after the residence of Yu Jizhi, a great horticulturalist in Yangzhou in the early years of the Republic of China, which was built as "Ying Villa".

This is the traditional Yangzhou classical garden architectural style, along the main building, there are long corridors, pavilions next to the corridors, pools next to the pavilions, and bridges over the pools.

Dressed in hanbok, every move slows down, like this slow trip to Yangzhou. While waiting for the food, the girls had fun taking pictures of each other in the promenade.

Dining Ying villa provides exquisite Huaiyang cuisine and authentic special morning tea, there are halls, and unique, ancient eight small halls, ordered a few refreshing small dishes, it is the season to eat lobster, every table will have crayfish ah!

Afternoon continue to stroll the Slender West Lake, this blue sky and white clouds, willow swaying, very Jiangnan, Yangzhou, although the geographical location in the Yangtze River north, but the humanities of Jiangnan, speaking of a mood.

Jiangnan is a people, mountains and beautiful water, in the "Jiangnan four cities", in addition to Nanjing, Huangshan, Suzhou, another is Yangzhou.

Afternoon at Xichun Terrace, watch a guqin performance.

Xichun Terrace is located on the west bank of Slender West Lake, far away from the Lotus Bridge. Legend has it that this was the place where Yangzhou salt merchants wished the emperor of the Qing Dynasty a happy birthday. In order to celebrate the birthday of the emperor, it cost ten thousand gold to build such a splendid platform, which shows the wealth of Yangzhou salt merchants in those years.

In the evening, I went to 1757 Food Court.

Whether it's the food court or the dining villa, both are connected to the Slender West Lake scenic spot, very convenient, can be reached on foot.

The 1757 Gourmet Street is also a popular food spot in Yangzhou. The entire neighborhood now operates nearly 50 stores, with more than a hundred varieties of food.

There are even long-established brands in the area, including more than 40 self-employed entrepreneurs who have brought together their unique craftsmanship, making it a distinctive neighborhood that combines traditional food, leisure and entertainment.

Here, you can pay 10 yuan for a cup of Wenshi tofu soup and watch the shopkeeper cut a piece of tofu into thin shreds on the spot.

In addition to local Yangzhou cuisine, it also includes specialties from Baoying and Gaoyou, pancake fruits and Tongguan meat sandwiches, so you can not only savor local Yangzhou cuisine, but also enjoy domestic snacks.

There are also a lot of online food here. Have you ever seen such a big cola? My friend said it looks like my face is so small. Yangzhou fried rice, Yangchun noodles and old beef soup are the main products here. We especially recommend this Yangzhou fried rice store, which is located in the 1757 Food Court neighborhood and is called Yangzhou Egg Fried Rice.

Simple overnight rice, corn, ham, eggs, scallions, etc., fried a bowl of egg fried rice, amazing friends, priced at 35 yuan, too fragrant, even I do not eat rice "pretend dieters", but also can not help.

The 1757 food court also has a variety of cultural and creative stores, and a non-heritage bazaar that blends traditional culture with lifestyle, which is a favorite among girls.

At the cultural and creative bazaar, you can buy Xie Fuchun's goose egg powder. This is an ancient cosmetic brand in Yangzhou, the first cosmetic company in China, with a history dating back to 1830. The packaging is very nostalgic.

We spent almost a whole day at the Slender West Lake that day before we were reluctant to leave. Beautiful scenery, Chinese costumes, food, cultural creations... Of course, the happier part was taking lots of beautiful photos.

Yangzhou will soon be connected to the high-speed train, so it will be more convenient to go to Yangzhou, and if you go to the Slim West Lake, you can slow down and feel it as we did.
