A Day Trip to Wuxi

Nanjing university students visited Wuxi on a scorching hot day, and it was insanely hot. 1⃣️ Got up at 6:30 in the morning to catch the high-speed train 🚅 from Nanjing South at around 8:00 (really sleepy, could hardly open my eyes, you guys don't need to get up so early because it might not take that long). 2⃣️ After arriving in Wuxi, you can store your luggage first (here directly at the subway 🚇 station for free, don't look for luggage lockers, they are really unreliable). The subway staff will have you register your name and phone number, and give you a number tag, just come back to collect it when you're done, the guys and girls are really enthusiastic! 3⃣️ The first stop was Donglin Academy, directly accessible by subway, 500m walk from Donglin Square Station Exit 1 to the east entrance of Donglin Academy. If you want to check in at the main gate, remember to walk out of the south exit! The fountain inside Donglin Academy is really beautiful and worth taking photos of 📸. 4⃣️ Then, you can take a bus from Donglin Academy to Nanchan Temple, just two stops and two yuan (it's best to have coins ready, I couldn't open Alipay at the time, luckily I brought coins with me, it was super embarrassing 😳). There are many people offering incense at Nanchan Temple, and if you're interested, you can buy some at the entrance! Although it's not expensive, remember to shop around. 5⃣️ At Tianning Temple, we ordered the Overlord Tea Ji, which was a new product called Wanli Magnolia, ordered two cups, and got a badge blind bag, in which I pulled out a treasure ship 🚢. The new product is really the taste of Assam milk tea, those who like Assam can give it a try, the tea flavor is quite strong. 6⃣️ Then we walked to Nanchang Street, not far, but it was really hot in the scorching sun, almost killed me!!! The Xinwanxin on Nanchang Street is really delicious, Wuxi's special silver thread noodles hahaha, I had the chicken soup base, the red soup base is also very good, served with sweet and sour ribs, really fragrant, worth a try, and not expensive, a bowl of noodles is only 10 yuan, plus some side dishes, the average cost per person is just over 50. 7⃣️ After lunch, we took a taxi to the Wuxi Museum (it's quite far, if you don't want to ride a shared bike 🚲 or a shared electric scooter 🛵, just choose to take a taxi, it's not expensive, Didi is only about ten yuan). Wuxi Museum is quite large, if you look carefully, it will take a long time to visit. 8⃣️ The last stop was Sanyang Plaza, needless to say, Sanyang Plaza is really Wuxi's small Xinjiekou, very large, takes a long time to explore, we also went to Xiaolou Lane, but because it was too hot, we didn't stay long and just wandered in the mall until the end. Today's expense was 150↔️, discovered another city suitable for budget travel, hahahaha (maybe not suitable for budget travel, it's just that I'm rather poor).
