The Ancient Town Loved by Emperor Qianlong, Su Shi, and Jin Yong

The Ancient Town Loved by Emperor Qianlong, Su Shi, and Jin Yong‼️ What Secrets Does It Hold? || Emperor Qianlong visited Yanguan four times to oversee seawall repairs, inscribing "Peaceful Waves" to protect the people. Jin Yong's martial arts world was infused with hometown nostalgia 🥷 Su Shi praised its tides as the mightiest under heaven 🌊 This ancient town has won endorsements from so many famous figures! After visiting, I was repeatedly amazed 🤯 It boasts the spectacular Qiantang River tidal bore, where you can witness the "unparalleled under heaven" roaring tides. Numerous historic sites stand guard, with layers of history stacked here 🏯 It’s also a "refreshing escape" among scenic spots 🍃 Perfect for a slow-paced weekend staycation with family and friends 😎 📍Jiaxing Haining · Yanguan Tide Music City 🚗 Recommended to drive: 2h from Shanghai, 1.5h from Suzhou 🚄 Take the high-speed train to "Haining West Station," then a 30-minute taxi ride 🗺️ My 2-Day Itinerary: DAY 1: Yanguan Tide Wall ➠ Main Singer Music Resort Hotel ➠ Music House Museum ➠ Wang Guowei’s Former Residence ➠ Sunset at the City Wall DAY 2: Tide-Watching Park ➠ Zhan'ao Pagoda ➠ Confucian Temple & School ➠ Sea God Temple ➠ Jin Yong Academy ➠ Imperial Dock ➠ North Street ➠ Gongchen Gate 📸 Must-Visit Spots: ✅ Yanguan Tide Wall Right outside the visitor center—feel the "water cascading down 3,000 feet" with your eyes and skin. Check the opening hours 💦 ✅ Music House Museum One of only three music museums in the world! Learn about music interactively, and the grand piano reflection makes for stunning photos 🎵 ✅ Tide-Watching Park Finally saw the Qiantang River tidal bore from my textbooks! Tides vary daily; check the "Tide’s Coming" app for schedules 🌊 ✅ Confucian Temple & School Combines a Confucian temple with classical architecture, great for families to explore Confucian culture 📖 ✅ Sea God Temple Where Emperor Qianlong came to offer incense—a majestic red temple 🏮 📒 Travel Tips: The scenic area is vast, so stay overnight. I stayed at the Main Singer Music Resort Hotel 🏨—a celebrity favorite. Rooms are filled with musical elements 🎙️ The Music House Museum is on the basement level, and the 5th-floor rooftop connects to the city wall. Enjoy a leisurely breakfast, swim in the infinity pool, watch the sunset, and end the night with a romantic concert 🎸 Pure relaxation 😌
