One-day tour in Ganzhou, visiting all the highlights

Want to fully appreciate the charm of the city in one day? Just come to Ganzhou! This "Songcheng" full of ancient charm is a perfect choice for a one-day citywalk. Ganzhou's most essential scenic spots are concentrated in a certain area. You can easily enjoy them by walking and riding shared bicycles, embarking on a journey through time and space. 🚶‍♀One-day route Start the day full of energy from [Xiaonanmen] in the morning, have a bowl of [Auntie Chen Meatballs] 🥣 first, and taste the authentic deliciousness before setting off. Xiaonanmen→Ganzhou Confucian Temple→Fushougou Museum | Wei Family Courtyard→Zaoer Lane→Jianchun Gate→Ancient Floating Bridge→Walk along the Ancient City Wall→Bajing Terrace→Former Residence of Mr. Chiang Ching-kuo→Yugu Terrace | Songchao Never-Sleeping City 🍲Food recommendations - Huashun Food: Must-try macaroni noodles! It looks ordinary, but it actually contains a mystery. This Chinese rice noodle skin is cleverly made hollow and has a unique taste. The salty and fragrant sauce makes every bite intoxicating, and the key is that the price is super affordable, only 6 yuan a bowl. - Auntie Chen’s Meatballs: Handmade Ningdu meatballs, chewy and soft, you can’t stop eating them. The bottom of the meatballs is covered with a special seasoning, which is fragrant and spicy. For those who cannot eat spicy food, please remember to ask for less spicy food in advance. - Xiao Hu Food Stall: Although the environment is simple, the taste is amazing! Many locals frequent this restaurant. The pork elbow and taro eggplant box are the signature dishes, highly recommended! ✖️ Thunder-proof Steamed Rice Noodle Roll: The taste is similar to ordinary rice noodle rolls, but the color is green. There is nothing special about it and it is not worth trying. Photo spot - Jianchun Gate: In addition to taking pictures at the square at the gate, you can also walk to the center of the ancient floating bridge and turn around to take pictures. This will give you a different perspective and make Jianchun Gate more ancient and simple. - Ancient City Wall: Climb up to the Bajing Terrace and have a bird's-eye view. The city wall, the city and the river are all in the same frame, forming a beautiful picture. Any shot you take will be a blockbuster. - Wengcheng: Also taken from the top of the Bajing Terrace, the exquisite design of the Wengcheng is in full view. There are not many well-preserved barbican cities today, and this unique building with both offensive and defensive capabilities is worth recording. 📄Tips - Time arrangement: The entire itinerary is more than enough from the afternoon to the evening, so it is well planned and you can have fun easily. - Route distance: Except for the distance from [Wei Family Courtyard] to [Zaoer Lane] which is 1.1km, the other attractions are only a few hundred meters apart and can be easily reached on foot. - Opening hours of the city wall: The [ancient city wall] between Jianchun Gate and Bajingtai will close at around 18:00 or 19:00, so be careful not to go there too late. The ancient city wall of Bajingtai-Songchao Never-Sleeping City section is open at night for you to enjoy the night view. - Seasonal travel: The ancient city wall is windy in autumn and winter, so remember to wear more clothes to keep warm. Walking on the city wall and feeling the weight of history is also a different experience. - Attraction News: The Confucian Temple has unique architectural colors, but it was under renovation in November. It is recommended to confirm whether it has reopened before visiting. - Food preference: The peppers in Jiangxi are very spicy. Friends from Guangdong should remember to ask in advance when ordering to avoid being too spicy.
