[2025 Wuxi Attraction] Travel Guide for Tai Hu Yuantouzhu Scenic Spot (Updated Apr)

Coming to Wuxi in spring is like opening a blind box. The right order of attractions doubles the surprise; the wrong order may leave you stuck in crowds! This guide teaches you how to avoid the pitfalls and enjoy Yuantouzhu cherry blossoms, the Zen town, and the soft and chewy local delicacies. Three must-dos, in the right order: Yuantouzhu: Visit in the morning. During peak season (March-May, October-November), enter as early as possible after the scenic area opens at 8:00. During the off-season (December-February, June-September), enter before 8:30. The morning light is soft, perfect for taking photos, and you can avoid the afternoon crowds. If you visit during the cherry blossom season (March-April), you can also enjoy the cherry blossoms in the morning light. Huishan Ancient Town: Suitable for both morning and afternoon visits, but the town is quieter in the morning, perfect for strolling through the ancient buildings and experiencing the local culture. If you want to experience a night tour, there is a wonderful "This is Wuxi" show every Tuesday to Sunday from 17:00-21:30. Nianhuawan: Visit in the afternoon. It usually takes half a day to tour. You can enjoy the scenery during the day and watch wonderful performances in the evening. The lighting ceremony around 7pm and the "Flower Blooming on Five Leaves" show are not to be missed. Traffic Guide: By car: To Yuantouzhu, depart from the Wuxi East exit of the Huning Expressway. The journey is about 20 km and takes about 30 minutes. To Nianhuawan, it is recommended to take Huan Shan West Road to avoid congestion during peak holiday periods. Public transport: To Yuantouzhu, take bus No. 1 or Leyou Line 1; to Huishan Ancient Town, take Subway Line 4 to Huishan Ancient Town Station; to Nianhuawan, take bus No. 88 and transfer to Mashan Gengwan Line. Off-peak travel: Avoid peak periods during holidays and weekends. The peak hours are 9:00-11:00 am and 2:00-4:00 pm. Tips to Avoid Pitfalls: Avoid peak hours at popular attractions: Yuantouzhu during cherry blossom season and Huishan Ancient Town's night tours during holidays are extremely crowded. It is recommended to book tickets in advance and plan your itinerary accordingly. Pay attention to weather changes: Wuxi is rainy in spring, hot in summer, cool in autumn, and cold in winter. Check the weather forecast before traveling and take appropriate precautions. Beware of tourist traps: When shopping or dining around scenic areas, check the prices carefully to avoid being overcharged. Formal scenic areas and well-known restaurants are relatively more reliable. Food Recommendations: Yuantouzhu: Hengyun Restaurant and Taihu Renjia Dim Sum Shop are located within the scenic area, where you can taste local specialties such as Taihu Sanbai (three white delicacies from Taihu Lake) and sugared taro. Huishan Ancient Town: Huishan's special snacks include xiaolongbao, wontons, and sugared lotus root, which can be enjoyed at snack stalls or restaurants in the ancient town. Nianhuawan: The scenic area offers a variety of vegetarian dishes and special snacks, such as Zen tea and vegetarian noodles, perfect for replenishing energy during your visit. Pre-trip Preparations: ID: Bring your ID card, as some scenic areas allow entry with an ID card. Clothing: Prepare appropriate clothing according to the season. The temperature difference between spring and autumn is large, so it is recommended to bring a light jacket. Sunscreen: Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and other sun protection items when traveling in summer. Camera or phone: To record beautiful moments, it is recommended to bring a power bank. Lessons Learned: Plan your itinerary reasonably: Don't schedule too many attractions to avoid exhaustion. It is recommended to allow enough time for each attraction to fully experience it. Pay attention to safety: Follow the rules within the scenic area, especially when playing by Taihu Lake, be careful and prevent drowning. Respect local culture: Respect local customs and protect cultural relics in cultural attractions such as Huishan Ancient Town. In Wuxi during March-April, Yuantouzhu takes center stage, but the Zen of Lingshan, the charm of Huishan, and the peach blossoms of Liyuan are equally captivating. Follow this order, and you're guaranteed to eat well, have fun, and take great photos!

Playing for a day costs less than 300 per person~ Wuxi One-Day Tour Route Hangzhou - Huishan Ancient Town - Yuantouzhu - Return 1First stop: Visit Huishan Ancient Town and enjoy the autumn historical and cultural district There are many gingko trees in bloom in the ancestral halls in the ancient town. The two trees in front of the Gu Kejiu Temple and the Zhang Zhongcheng Temple are particularly photo-worthy. Against the backdrop of the ancient streets and alleys, the golden ginkgo leaves covering the ground are particularly eye-catching. ■At the entrance of the scenic area, there are also commemorative handicraft experiences such as limited edition autumn leaves and Wuxi check-in stamps. Cultural Heritage Area (70) ■The most popular 600-year-old ginkgo tree is inside Huishan Temple. It is easier to take photos if you go there in the morning when there are fewer people. ■ In addition to ginkgo trees, red maples are another must-see in autumn at Huishan Ancient Town. Jichang Garden, one of the four famous gardens in the south of the Yangtze River, not only allows you to experience the beauty and elegance of classical Jiangnan gardens, but the red maple trees beside the Qixing Bridge are also quite charming. 2 Second stop: Yuantouzhu ferry cruise to watch the sunset and feed seagulls Navigate to the ticket office at the Chongshan Gate. After entering the gate and walking for about ten minutes, you will see a Metasequoia forest. The Metasequoia turns red in autumn. You can take photos and then take a bus at the scenic area bus stop. The fare is 5 per person for a round trip, which saves time. Those who don't want to walk can take the yellow sightseeing bus, which has 20 people per trip. S You can be sent directly from the entrance of the scenic area to the cruise ship terminal. Photography Tips To watch the sunset, it is recommended to take a boat after 15:30 in the afternoon. We took the Taihu Heart Seagull Watching Special Line which departs at 16:00 every weekend and a trip takes about an hour. We watched the sunset directly on the boat without getting off the boat to go to the island and returned directly. Gull Watching Special Line Ticket Price: 128 people Prepare some steamed buns in advance to feed the seagulls, and they will circle around you. There are more seagulls flying around the stern of the ship, and it is easier to take photos. Time to watch seagulls: November to February of the following year

Yuantouju, a AAAAA-class tourist destination in China and a world-class tourist destination, is a huge tourist destination known as one of the world's top 3 cherry blossom spots! It is adjacent to Taihu Lake and is said to be larger than a typical Korean village. It is said that it was named Yuandujiu because its terrain resembles a turtle's head. Although I went a little later than when it was in full bloom, there were still many in bloom, and when I climbed up to the pavilion in the cherry blossom valley, I was able to see a wonderful view! Many people were taking pictures there :-) The entrance fee is 90 yuan, and although it is quite a distance to walk from the main gate, it is also nice to walk up slowly as if taking a stroll! The surrounding scenery is also a beautiful place like a well-decorated park! It will be around April soon, so when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, I plan to visit again :-) #Yuantouju #Yuandujiu #ChinaTravel

It located in Taihu lake. Up to you that uisng battery car inside or not. A bit crowded in weekend. I went on November. The weather is not comfortable. There have raining and cloudy. The scenic is so so. The most month that people visit is March. Because the garden is full of cherry blossoms.

Here’s a super detailed hiking and flower viewing guide, be sure to save it! 🕙 Time your visit to catch the blooming season Early cherry blossoms make their debut from late February to early March, mostly single- or semi-double-petal varieties, concentrated in the Water Scenery Garden, Caowan, and Cherry Blossom Valley. Mid-season cherry blossoms bloom spectacularly in mid-to-late March, with Somei Yoshino cherries in full bloom, transforming Changchun Bridge, the Cherry Blossom Viewing Tower, and Cherry Blossom Valley into a pink ocean. Late-season cherry blossoms make a gorgeous finale in early April, with double-petal varieties such as Prunus lannesiana 'Sekiyama' and Prunus serrulata 'Kanzan' continuing the romance of spring. 🚪 Choose Dushan Gate for entry Dushan Gate is closest to the core cherry blossom viewing area, saving you time on your hike.

The cherry trees at the entrance and the Jiangxuexuan complement each other well, and it really has the flavor of Chinese architecture. · ✅Sakura Valley This is the place with the most Somei Yoshino cherry trees. I heard that there are more than 30,000 cherry trees and over a hundred varieties. After arriving here, I found that it really lives up to its name, it is simply a sea of ​​​​cherry blossoms.
