Become a little poet after being drenched in the cherry blossom rain! This family trip to Wuxi cured my writing difficulties

"Mom, the cherry blossoms are snowing pink for me!" My 6-year-old daughter opened her arms and spun in the cherry blossom rain at Yuantouzhu. The petals stuck to her eyelashes like moving stickers. This trip to Wuxi, which the whole family called a "mobile poetry class," turned the Jiangnan water town in the Chinese textbook into a tangible fairy tale with the flying seagulls of Taihu Fairy Island, the window view of Jichang Garden in the same style as Emperor Qianlong's, and the sounds of oars and lights on Nanchang Street. 🌸Yuantouzhu: 3D cherry blossom textbook As the ferry cut through the morning mist of Taihu Lake, flocks of red-billed gulls swooped down after the waves as the boat stern.

At this moment, the cherry blossom specimen on the desk is accompanying the Huishan clay figurine "Cherry Blossom Fuwa". "When the wind blows, let's take the flower petals back to Taihu Lake for a swim?" You see, the most touching thing about Wuxi's spring is always the romance left in the children's pens. TIPS: Yuantouzhu opens at 6:30am so you can take photos of the deserted cherry blossom path! Huishan Ancient Town has a long-standing brand "Zhu Shunxing" for its crispy pastry. The Xihui Park cable car overlooks the entire city.
