Great Family Vacation Spot: Garden Expo Park
📍 Jiangsu Garden Expo Park
The Garden Expo Park has canceled the previous 🎫 and replaced it with Su Yun Thirteen Gardens (70💰) and Hugging Paradise (50💰), which is very friendly👌 for friends who just want to stroll around the park.
The Garden Expo Park is divided into 5 major areas:
1️⃣ Mirror Square: Avant-Garde Bookstore, Time Post Office, and Coca-Cola Museum are nearby. There are also KFC, DQ, Bawang Tea Princess, etc.~
2️⃣ Hugging🫂 Paradise: A great place for adults to free their hands
3️⃣ Su Yun Thirteen Gardens: Cultural exhibitions, immersive performances
4️⃣ Future Garden: Underwater botanical garden🌳
5️⃣ Peacock🦚 Garden: The largest peacock🦚 ecological park in East China, with about 1,000 peacocks.

🏨 Hotels:
There are 7 hotels🏨 in the park: Nanjing Junmao Hotel Autograph Collection, Nanjing Westin Hot Spring Resort, Nanjing Garden Expo Banyan Tree, Nanjing Garden Expo Indigo Hotel, Nanjing Garden Expo Huanghua'an Hotel, Nanjing Garden Expo Voco Hotel, Nanjing Radisson Collection Resort.
I stayed at the Westin and Autograph Collection in the park. Both hotels have playgrounds🎠 for kids, which they really liked. The Westin's pool is shared with the Autograph Collection, which only has a popular hot spring♨️ but no heated pool. I have to say, the breakfast at the Autograph Collection is quite good. The first time I stayed, there was a la carte steak and Jinling big meat buns for breakfast🥣, but not the second time. Overall, the breakfast quality is still good.
🍽 Dining Recommendations: Ban Shan You Yu, Ye Chun, Hua Chu, snacks, etc.~
🗓 Itinerary:
The Garden Expo Park is quite large, with a small train and cable car🚡 inside. There is a fireworks🎆 show at certain times of the year, which is very impressive. It is recommended to take the shuttle bus inside the park, with unlimited rides. You can get a park map🗺️ when you enter and plan your playtime accordingly.
The Garden Expo Park is definitely a recommended spot for family vacations🏖 in Nanjing!!!
