A stunning spring limited-time offer! You'll regret missing these places from March to May.

"With your words of spring's arrival, I find myself in the heart of Jiangnan." 📍Location: Slender West Lake - Route: Enter through the South Gate → Long Causeway Spring Willows → Xu Garden → Small Gold Mountain → Fishing Platform → Five-Pavilion Bridge → White Pagoda - Money-saving tip: No need for a boat, a 2-hour walk covers the highlights. Focus on the Five-Pavilion Bridge and the Fishing Platform for photos. 🚗Transportation recommendations|High-speed rail + e-scooter offers the most freedom 1️⃣ Main transportation: Shanghai/Nanjing → Yangzhou East Railway Station (1.5 hours by high-speed rail), a 20-yuan taxi ride from the station to downtown. 2️⃣ City transportation: Shared e-scooters (3 yuan/hour) + tourist bus routes (5 yuan/day unlimited rides) 3️⃣ Avoid: Unlicensed taxis at the high-speed rail station charge 80 yuan to Slender West Lake, while a DiDi ride is only 30 yuan! Avoid one-way streets in the old town when renting a car. 👍️Must-see attractions: 1️⃣ Slender West Lake: Yangzhou's iconic attraction, with picturesque scenery, every step reveals a new view, as if stepping into a painting. 2️⃣ Ge Garden: One of the four famous gardens in China, with swaying bamboo shadows and scattered rockeries, experience the exquisite beauty of classical gardens! 3️⃣ Dongguan Street: A thousand-year-old street with bluestone roads and antique buildings, perfect for strolling and enjoying delicious food. 4️⃣ Daming Temple: Climb the Qiling Pagoda for a panoramic view of Yangzhou and experience the weight of history and tranquility. 🎟️Tickets: Slender West Lake tickets: 60 yuan (half price for students). Buying individual tickets is not cost-effective! Purchase a combined ticket for Slender West Lake + Daming Temple + Ge Garden (160 yuan) and save 30%. 💗Other tips: 🍜Food guide! Enjoy a feast for 50 yuan per person! Crab Roe Lion's Head at Shizilou Restaurant, tender and not greasy, with a sweet and savory soup; Yangzhou fried rice at Dongyuan Restaurant, each grain distinct, with shrimp, ham, and green peas as the soul; Huangqiao Sesame Cakes freshly baked at a small stall on Pishi Street, the salty flavor pairs perfectly with jasmine tea; and Tangyuan with Osmanthus Sugar at Cuchadanfan, chewy osmanthus-flavored skin filled with sesame paste, 4 yuan/piece, super cost-effective! ⚠️Things to avoid: The "Yangzhou Old Goose" inside the scenic area may not be fresh, vacuum-packed options on Wangyue Road Food Street are more reliable. Don't buy overpriced souvenirs in the scenic area, Xie Fuchun scented powder and Sanhe Simei pickles are the real deal! 📸Popular photo spots! The Fishing Platform at Slender West Lake, frame the Five-Pavilion Bridge and the White Pagoda for a photo guaranteed to get countless likes on your social media! - The light is softest in the early morning or evening at Slender West Lake, creating a great atmosphere for photos. - The ancient buildings and lanterns of Dongguan Street capture the charm of Jiangnan.
