Taizhou Spring Festival Lantern Festival Climb the "First Tower in Jianghuai" Wanghai Tower

✨There are many famous towers in our country, such as the Yellow Crane Tower in Wuhan, the Yuejiang Tower in Nanjing, the Yueyang Tower in Yueyang, the Stork Tower in Yongji, etc. The trip to Taizhou that just ended was during which we went to the Wanghai Tower in the Fengcheng River Scenic Area. ▪️【About Wanghai Tower】 Wanghai Tower was first built in the Southern Song Dynasty. It is over 30 meters high and has the architectural style of the Song Dynasty. The exterior has a three-story circular corridor and the main colors are red, yellow and white. It is simple and elegant, and has the reputation of being the "No. 1 Tower in Jianghuai". The "Wang Hai" in the name does not actually mean looking at the sea, but refers to having lofty ambitions, wandering in the muddy road but with one's heart in the ocean. Since ancient times, many celebrities have visited this building. Now ordinary people can also go up to the building and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the river. (There is an elevator in the building, and it is recommended to come at sunset) ▪️【About Fan Zhongyan】 When Fan Zhongyan was 33 years old, he came to Taizhou and met a group of like-minded young people. They often recited poems and sang together in Wenhui Hall. And this Wenhui Hall is on the west side of the scenic area. In addition, Mr. Fan Jingyi, the 28th generation grandson of Fan Zhongyan, wrote an article entitled "Records of the Reconstruction of Wanghai Tower" for the rebuilt "Wanghai Tower", which is also presented in detail inside the tower. ▪️【Holiday limited】 During the Spring Festival, the scenic area is decorated with colorful lanterns. Especially after turning on the lights at night, the New Year atmosphere is instantly created. This year, there are lanterns in the shape of dragons, gods of wealth, rabbits, pandas, and carp leaping over the dragon gate. You can also see lanterns in the shapes of hot dried bean curd, jade siu mai, fish soup noodles, and Huangqiao sesame cakes, which are local signature dishes. ▪️【My game episode】 We originally planned to enjoy the lanterns on the night of the Lantern Festival, but because it snowed heavily the night before and it was rainy and snowy the next day, the road was slippery due to the accumulated snow, and many scenic spots in the city were temporarily closed. Fortunately, the weather cleared up the next day and the scenic spot resumed business immediately. I arrived here near sunset and missed the lighting and drone show. 📍No. 10, Southeast Park, Taizhou City, Jiangsu Province 🚇Bus No. 168, No. 1, etc. ⏱️8:30-17:30 (except special holidays) 💰From 27 yuan
