Must-Visit in Nanchang! Nanchang Star Ferris Wheel Guide

📍Location: Ganjiang Riverside, Honggutan New District, Nanchang (near Qiushui Square) 🕙Opening Hours: 09:00 - 22:00 (extended to 23:00 in summer) 🎫Tickets: CNY 50/person (Free for children under 1.2m, half-price for children between 1.2m and 1.4m) 🚇Transportation: 15-minute walk from Qiushui Square Station on subway Line 1, or take a taxi 🌟Why is it the "City Icon"? 1. China's Tallest: At 160m, it was once the world's tallest Ferris wheel and remains the centerpiece of Nanchang's skyline! 2. Ferris Wheel Records: 60 space capsules symbolizing "time passing," one rotation takes about 30 minutes, overlooking the prosperity of both banks of Ganjiang River✨ 3. Light Aesthetics: Colorful lights at night, the giant "wheel of fire" framed with the "Twin Towers" creates a sci-fi atmosphere! 💖Romantic Experience Guide Catch both sunset and night views! Recommended time: 17:30 - 19:30 (sunset in summer, dusk + night view in winter) Night view highlights: Ferris wheel reflection in Ganjiang River, echoing the lights of Tengwang Pavilion across the river, creating perfect ambiance! 🎈Photo Spots Below the Ferris Wheel 1. Riverside walkway: Take silhouette photos with the Ferris wheel as background, perfect for couples holding hands or making heart gestures! 2. Lawn plaza: At night when lights are on, sit on the grass for "looking up" shots, with the Ferris wheel forming a halo above. 🎡Nearby Romantic Activities 1. Qiushui Square Musical Fountain: Asia's largest musical fountain, perfect after the Ferris wheel! 2. Ganjiang Night Cruise: Enjoy river breeze on a boat while viewing the Ferris wheel light show from a unique perspective. 3. Honggutan CBD: Trendy restaurants near the Ferris wheel (like high-rise afternoon tea, riverside Western dining), perfect for special occasions! 📷Photo Tips 1. Outfits: Light-colored clothes look softer, wear sequined dresses for night photos, sparkling under the lights~ 2. Props: Balloons, sparklers, flowers - perfect for atmosphere! 3. Camera angles: Looking up directly below, side shots from riverside railings, looking up from Mixc Mall's sunken elevator... 📌Tips 1. Avoid crowds by visiting on weekdays or early in the day instead of holidays. 2. Capsules may fog up on rainy days, better to visit on clear days. 🏠Recommended Stay: Good Hotel (Provincial Art Center Branch) Direct subway access to Qiushui Square, close to Bayi Square and Wanshou Palace. Comes with parking lot for convenient parking~ Good value, regular price around CNY 100+ including breakfast for two (extensive breakfast with Nanchang local snacks) Bring your special someone to Nanchang Star Ferris Wheel for a romantic encounter💕
