How to play in Yangzhou, just copy this guide

Friends! Who says Jiangnan only has Suzhou and Hangzhou? Last week, I was awakened by a slap from the bathing lady in Yangzhou bathhouse. I finally realized the true meaning of this city - skin wrapped in water in the morning, water wrapped in skin in the evening, and in between, I have to stroll in the garden under the half-moonlight✨ 🍜 The awakening moment of the morning tea assassin 🌿 Fun Garden Tea House's secret code world ▪️ 6:20 am, wait for the number machine on time, wink at the waiter and say "I want the Wang Zengqi set meal", and you will get the hidden version of Thousand Layer Cake with Jade Shaomai ▪️ What the locals taught me: Before eating the Sanding Bao, dip it in vinegar and draw a "moon" character, which can trigger the same taste as Jia Mu in "Dream of Red Mansions". 🐟 Dark cuisine at the Crossing Bridge ✅ The boss lady of Chen Ji Duck Blood Vermicelli Soup has the ability to read minds! Say "old fashioned" and you'll get double the gizzard ribs ✅ Let me tell you a secret: if you go to Tiger Mountain Pot Stickers at 4pm, you can see the red bean Yuanxiao waterfall cooked by the chef. ⚠️Blood and tears discovery: When you are in Yangzhou, don’t ever ask “are there any dishes that are not sweet?” It is recommended that you bring two packets of pickled mustard tuber with you. After all, even the soup base for Yangchun noodles is made from rock sugar water boiled with eel bones! 🛶 Hidden copy of the ancient canal rafting 🌙 Dongguan Street Moonlight Barrier ▪️ At 8pm, turn into the alley to buy Huangqiao sesame cakes, and you will meet a rowing boat man and ask "Do you want to take a private night tour of the Grand Canal?" ▪️ The lanterns at the south gate of Geyuan are equipped with mechanisms! Touching the third row of bamboo pattern lanterns will light up a poem written by Zheng Banqiao 🦢 Cyberpunk of Slender West Lake ✅ To take photos at Wuting Bridge, you need to use a 0.5x wide angle. On cloudy days, you can take photos of the reflection of the Twenty-Four Bridges when Emperor Qianlong went to the south of the Yangtze River. ✅ Remember to bring original soda biscuits when feeding the swans. The one wearing a red scarf will dance "Night Banquet in Tang Palace" for you. 🛵 Electric car's magical movement 🗺️ eMule version of "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" ▪️ When renting a car, if you tell the owner that you want one that can climb the Wenchang Pavilion Skybridge, he will give you a hand-drawn "Yangzhou Eight Eccentric Food Map" ▪️ When navigating Dinghuai Gate, remember to turn off "Avoid small roads" as you may enter a coffee camp converted from a Song Dynasty brick kiln factory 🚲 Backseat Survival Rules ✅ Essential three-piece set: padded gloves (willow catkins in March are fiercer than snow), waterproof phone bag (for taking beautiful photos of the White Pagoda in the mist), folding stool (for buying glutinous rice balls in seconds) ✅ If you see an old man carrying a thermos bucket, don’t hesitate to follow him. He may be delivering the secret vegetarian food of Jianzhen Library. 🌸 The law of true fragrance I realized in Yangzhou: 1️⃣ The wooden floor of Heyuan Yuxiu Building has a secret. When you step on the seventh floor, you will hear the piano exercises of a rich lady from a hundred years ago. 2️⃣ The bronze bell on top of the Qiling Pagoda in Daming Temple hums a fragment of Guangling San when the east wind blows 3️⃣ You can find recipes from the Republic of China at the second-hand book stalls on Pi Shi Street. You can copy the lion head described by Zhu Ziqing by following the recipes. Although Yangzhou is so slow that it makes people anxious (the bus driver would take out the harmonica and play "Jasmine Flower" when waiting for the red light), it was this laziness that allowed me to watch ants moving crabapple petals in Shigong Temple for an afternoon, learn how to weave a moon with willow branches from an old man at the Song Jiacheng Ruins, and get a hand full of freshly picked magnolias by an old lady on a tricycle when I got lost in Siwang Pavilion.
