Yangzhou attractions recommend the grand canal to make Yangzhou ancient city. The prosperity of ancient times left the city with the houses of salt merchants and hundreds of ancient streets and lanes, and gave birth to the life of Yangpai. If you have a plan to visit this historic city, it is wise to go to Yangzhou, where the ancient city culture is preserved.
Whether it's the complex of the canal, the yearning for Yangzhou in ancient poetry, or just wanting to eat an authentic Huaiyang dish, Yangzhou will make you glad that you have been here. As the new food capital of the world, the temptation brought by Yangzhou is irresistible.
Ge Yuan
Yanfu East Road10; Tickets for 45 yuan in peak season and 30 yuan in low season.
The peak season is 7: 15 ~ 17: 30 and the off-season is 7: 15 ~ 17: 00.
Geyuan is indeed worthy of being as famous as Beijing Summer Palace, chengde mountain resort and Suzhou Humble Administrator's Garden, and it is called "China's Four Famous Gardens". Walking through the four seasons rockery garden, the mountains are full of bamboo and stalagmites, creating a spring scene of "mushrooming"; Going north is the summer scenery against the blue-gray Taihu stone and water lilies; In connection with this, the planted red maple presents autumn scenery by using the hard and brown characteristics of Huangshi.
But the best is the smallest winter scenery. Crystal clear snow drifts in Xuan Shi are like unmelted snow. The 24 wind holes in the back wall of the stacked stone make the effect of blowing the whistling northwest wind through the flow, and together with Chimonanthus praecox, push the winter scenery to the extreme. There are two holes beside the garden in winter. Looking out, it is bamboo shoots in the spring garden. Winter goes and spring comes, and the four seasons cycle. For the owner of the garden, this is really amazing.
river source
66 Xuningmen Street; Tickets to 45 yuan; 7:30~ 17:30
In the Qing Dynasty, He Zhi bought this garden because he took a fancy to Shi Tao, a master of gardens, and later expanded it into a house combining Chinese and Western styles. There are not only pavilions in the park, but also a large number of western-style structural designs. /kloc-The 0/00-meter-long corridor connects the main scene with the building, and strolls through it. The leaking windows "frame" different scenery.
Slender West Lake
No.28, Dahongqiao Road; Tickets are 150 yuan; 5:30~ 17:00
There are too many poems describing Yangzhou, such as Zhu Ziqing's sentence "For those who have never been to Yangzhou but have read some Tang poems, Yangzhou is really as beautiful as a mirage".
Although Slender West Lake is now organized like a public park, Xiaojinshan, Diaoyutai, Clothing, Wu Ting Bridge and Qiongdao are still built along the seashore, which proves the luxury of that year. Pay attention to the season when going to Slender West Lake. Spring is the most beautiful time for flowers to bloom, but it is also the time for tourists.
It takes about 2.5 hours to visit Slender West Lake on foot, and you can also take sightseeing bus. But just as Qianlong chose to visit Slender West Lake from the water, the best angle to visit Slender West Lake is still on the water. With this spokesperson, Slender West Lake is far ahead of many scenic spots in Yangzhou with a high ticket price of 150 yuan. If you will stay in Yangzhou for a long time, the tickets for Slender West Lake, Geyuan, Heyuan and daming temple, and the joint ticket for the Grand Canal cruise in 220 yuan are much more authentic.
Outside the Slender West Lake Scenic Area, there is also a bonsai garden next to Dahongqiao. There are no tickets, the environment is quiet, and there are typical Yangpai bonsai works.
Slender West Lake Night Tour
There is a night tour of Slender West Lake. At that time, all the lights on both sides of the lake were turned on, and you could enjoy the night view.

Lushi Salt Merchants House
No.22 Kangshan Street; Tickets 15 yuan
9:00~ 1 1:30, 14:00~ 16:30
Old Yangzhou people said: A family with money and no money only needs to look at the height of its own gate and courtyard wall. Seen from gongyuan street of Kangshan culture, Lushi city wall is12m high, and the brick wall made of blue bricks is towering and heavy. Go in, 1 1 enter the hospital, more than 200 suites. When you are in it, you will understand what "hidden wealth is not revealed". This is a deep courtyard built by Lushi at a cost of nearly 82,000 silver, and it is also the largest existing salt merchant residence in Yangzhou.
Shuangdong historical block
Shuangdong refers to the old street around Dongguan Street and Donghuanmen. When you climb the East Gate Tower in Song Dynasty, you can overlook the whole Dongguan Street. No place can better reflect the salt merchant culture and canal culture in Yangzhou.
In the past, there were many famous wealthy businessmen living in ancient streets. They left more than 200 shops with garden houses, such as Geyuan, Hu's former residence, former residence, Huashiyuan, Xiong's former residence, etc. Today, this 1200-year-old street has been renovated, moved back to the old store and ushered in a new store, which is still the center of Yangzhou.
The East Ring Gate in the south is purer. This street, which seems to be occupied by antiques and footwork, also hides many deep houses, including the best-preserved salt merchant residence in Yangzhou (No.14; Tickets to 25 yuan), Huyuan, Shi Ding Salt Merchants, Jiang Shangqing's former residence, etc.
After Shuangdong Street was transformed into a historic street, a large number of tourists welcomed it. If you want to get closer to the soul of the old Yangzhou, you might as well go deep into the dense alley between the two streets, or wait until after ten o'clock in the evening, when the shops are closed, to enjoy the tranquility of the old street.
It is suggested to poke the steaming crab yellow soup bag with a straw. Pork flavor and crab roe are rarely smoked together, which is unforgettable! Then eat huaiyang in turn. Sanding steamed stuffed bun is the top brand in Yangzhou, and the noodles become soft and tough after fermentation. Diced chicken, diced meat and diced bamboo shoots are properly matched in proportion.
Then there is the "Yangzhou Shuangjue" jade baked Melaleuca oil cake, which is filled with green leaves mixed with cooked lard and ham, and the skin is thin and the filling is green; Melaleuca cake is divided into 64 layers, with alternating layers of sugar and oil; However, the attention paid to the usual nuances of dried plum and vegetarian dishes is even more amazing.
Yangzhou people's culture of eating morning tea can be comparable to that of Guangzhou, with a plate of perm-dried silk, a few snacks and a cup of green tea. No matter how busy you are, you should have morning tea first. "Sanchun" (Fuchun, Ye Chun and Gonghechun) is the favorite place for old Yangzhou people. You must "catch up" with your morning tea, preferably before 6: 30, or you will wait in line for a long time. Morning tea usually ends on 10 in the morning.
Eat in the morning, not hungry at noon. But when you eat, you must walk into a restaurant. You can't miss the authentic Huaiyang cuisine in Yangzhou. Crab powder lion head, fat but not greasy, loose but not scattered.
Vince tofu, 1.5 cm thick dried bean curd was sliced into 24 pieces with distinct roots; Boiled dried silk, countless thin tofu floating in it? These well-known delicacies all test their skills.
The three-piece set of ducks made by Yangzhou chef has a unique flavor by deboning pigeons and filling wild ducks, and then deboning wild ducks and filling domestic ducks. There is also stewed silver carp head. The fish is fresh and tender, and the soup is thick, all of which are delicious.
At this time, there must be no room in my stomach, but I still miss the world-famous Yangzhou fried rice. Now Yangzhou fried rice has reached the industry standard, and eggs, scallops, shrimps, ham and green beans are indispensable. I want to eat the most authentic fried rice, and I also want to eat the roots of a century-old shop (Guoqing Road 1 15).
