Wang Xizhi was right, Lanting is indeed a masterpiece!

🌟First, let's take a look at the ticket prices and opening hours of Lanting Scenic Area! Tickets are CNY 70 per person, but if you can recite the entire "Preface to the Orchid Pavilion," you can get in for free! 😎 The opening hours are from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, so be sure to remember this so you can plan your visit accordingly. 🎈The travel route is amazing: Step through the main entrance of the scenic area, and wow, the rich atmosphere of a Chinese garden hits you like a wave, as if you've instantly traveled back in time to ancient times. 🦢 You must visit the Goose Pond first! The scenery there is picturesque, and there is a stele pavilion with the words "Goose Pond" written by Wang Xizhi and his son Wang Xianzhi. Standing there, you can almost feel the magic of calligraphy flowing through the air. Next, go to the Lanting Stele Pavilion, where the ancient steles stand like old men of history, quietly telling stories of the past. Then, take a stroll to the Winding Water Pavilion, and imagine the ancient scholars drinking and composing poetry here, and experience the elegance of the past. Then, visit the Wang Youjun Temple, where you can learn more about the life of Wang Xizhi. After that, go to the Eighteen Pools, and look at the water tanks, as if you can see the hardships of Wang Xizhi practicing calligraphy, and feel his perseverance. Walk across the Chenghuai Bridge, and stroll along the Lanting Ancient Road, feeling as if you've traveled back to the Wei and Jin Dynasties, it's such a wonderful feeling! 🌟Here's the highlight! The Tianzhang Temple Ruins and the Lanting Calligraphy Museum are not to be missed. The Tianzhang Temple Ruins are quiet and mysterious, and the photos you take there are stunning, each one is sure to go viral on social media. The Lanting Calligraphy Museum is full of calligraphy masterpieces, like a treasure trove of calligraphy art, dazzling to the eyes. The whole trip takes about 4 hours, and if you don't take photos, you can finish it in about 2 hours, so you can plan your time according to your own situation! 🤗
