2025 Trip.com Travelers' Choice Awards: Yancheng Trip

I was honored to attend the 2025 Trip.com Travelers' Choice Awards ceremony. The event was well-organized and rich in content. The awards ceremony was grand and lively, filled with laughter and joy. There was even a calligraphy-writing robot, which was quite interesting. Trip.com arranged our stay at the DoubleTree by Hilton Yancheng Oceanbay. The hotel boasts a beautiful environment, integrated with the Dayang Bay Scenic Area. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, equipped with large bathtubs. The breakfast was delicious and offered a wide variety of dishes. The hotel's Qingya Chinese Restaurant, also arranged by Trip.com, is top-notch. Every meal we enjoyed there was exquisite, with many dishes leaving a lasting impression. During the two-day trip, we also visited several attractions. The night tour of Dayang Bay Scenic Area was stunning. The evening drone light show was both trendy and heartwarming. Coinciding with the cherry blossom season, we were also able to admire the night cherry blossoms. At the Yandu Ancient Town, we were immersed in a historical drama depicting the town's development and changes. The production was excellent, with dedicated actors and state-of-the-art lighting effects. It was a captivating performance that left a lasting impression. Yancheng is also famous for its red-crowned cranes. I finally had the opportunity to see them up close and learn about wetland ecology and various bird species. It was both fun and educational. The entire event was impeccably organized and unforgettable.
