Suining, this small city in central Sichuan, is truly perfect for a short weekend trip! As Sichuan's "eastern gateway," Suining combines natural scenery, culture, and delicious food 👏.

Plus, the attractions are super close to each other, so you can have a great time without rushing around~ 🌟Must-Visit Attractions: 📍Guangde Temple (Guangde Road, Chuanshan District, Suining City): This thousand-year-old ancient temple has incredibly strong incense, and the crape myrtle flower sea inside is breathtakingly beautiful! It's recommended to set off at 8 AM to avoid crowds and get good photos 📸. 📍Lingquan Temple (Lingquan Road, Chuanshan District, Suining City): A 15-minute climb offers panoramic city views, and the Guanyin Pavilion at the summit is incredibly efficacious! Remember to bring coins for making wishes~ 📍Shenglian Island (Binjiang Road, Chuanshan District, Suining City): A river island perfect for cycling, with the sunset reflecting on the Fujiang River creating a super romantic scene! There's also an Instagram-worthy cafe on the island ☕. 📍Longfeng Ancient Town (Longfeng Town, Chuanshan District, Suining City): A well-preserved Ming and Qing dynasty architectural complex, with bluestone paths and red lanterns creating a wonderful atmosphere~ It's recommended to go in the evening for the stunning night view! 😋Food Guide: ✅"Shede Hotpot" (Desheng East Road, Chuanshan District): A butter hotpot place where even locals queue up to eat; tripe and duck blood are must-orders! ✅"Wangji Beef Noodles" (Nanjin North Road, Chuanshan District): A 30-year-old establishment with broth so rich you'll want to lick the bowl 🍜. ✅Xu Laosan Dried Tofu (Available in major supermarkets): A specialty of Suining, both the spicy and five-spice flavors are excellent! 💡Practical Tips: 1. Most attractions in Suining are directly accessible by bus, and taxi fares start at just 5 yuan, which is super cost-effective! 2. Guangde Temple and Lingquan Temple can be visited on the same day, as they are only 3 kilometers apart 🚕. 3. For Shenglian Island, it's recommended to rent a shared bicycle to cycle around the island (2 yuan/hour). 4. Be sure to try Suining's specialty "Guanyin Su Mahua" (vegetarian fried dough twists), sold at the entrances of temples. 🏨Accommodation Recommendation: It's recommended to stay in the center of Chuanshan District; "Suining Marriott Hotel" is a good choice, as you can walk to Binjiang Park to enjoy the night view 🌃. Such a weekend trip to Suining is both relaxing and fulfilling, and most importantly, it's less crowded and prices are low! Quickly save this nanny-level guide and embark on a spontaneous trip ✈️.
