Yangzhou Spring Citywalk｜Slender West Lake×Tianning Temple Pagoda! My spring outing!

｜Slender West Lake×Tianning Temple Pagoda! My spring outing! . Yangzhou in spring is what Du Mu described as "Ten miles of Yangzhou Road in spring breeze" and what Xu Ning described as "One third of the world is on moonlit nights, and two thirds of the scoundrels are in Yangzhou." Taking advantage of the beautiful spring weather, I took a spring city walk around Slender West Lake and Tianning Temple Pagoda. I compiled a super detailed one-day tour guide, save it now! 🌸Slender West Lake: Encountering the romantic peach blossoms "There's a peach tree every three steps and a willow tree every five steps." The Suzhou West Lake in spring is awakened by peach blossoms. Strolling along the long embankment with willows in spring, the peach blossoms on the lakeside are in full bloom. The breeze blows, and the petals fall onto the lake. They contrast beautifully with the Wuting Bridge and the White Pagoda in the distance, like a beautiful painting of the Jiangnan region, so beautiful that it leaves you speechless! The peach blossoms in Taohuawu are particularly brilliant, with numerous flowers and rich fragrance. 🎫Tickets: 100 yuan ⏰Opening hours: 06:00 - 22:00 (night tour 18:30 - 22:00) Tips for taking photos: 1. Enter the park before 7 a.m. to enjoy soft light, less crowds and beautiful scenery. You can also catch the stunning sunrise over the Wuting Bridge. 2. Taohuawu is crowded, so you might as well go to the lakeside and find a small corner to take close-up photos to maximize the atmosphere. 3. Wearing light-colored Hanfu will complement the romantic peach blossoms and the success rate of photos is super high. 🏯Tianning Temple Pagoda: Listen to the Buddhist sounds of history After coming out of Slender West Lake, you can take bus No. 30, No. 60 night air-conditioned bus or tourist bus, get off at Shigong Temple, walk 200 meters along Fengle Shangjie, and you will reach Tianning Temple Pagoda.
