Yangzhou Slow Life|Just returned from Yangzhou, and the afterglow is still lingering...

🌸 My First Impression of Yangzhou Strolling through the streets, gardens and poetry scrolls feel like "scattered rice paper fragments" blown by the wind 🧩 The grand screen at the Canal Museum rolls in with the essence of the Sui and Tang dynasties, "brushing past your face," While a boat ride on Slender West Lake sways beneath the Twenty-Four Bridges, where moonlight "waltzes on ripples" 🌙 Cupping a handful of water, half a verse of "Jiangnan love poetry" slips through your fingers. 🏡【24 Hours in Yangzhou's Hotel Forest】 Never expected to be "completely smitten" by this manor: ▫️ Morning runs through acres of black pine forests, with nature's oxygen bar "certified by scent" 🌲 ▫️ A ¥90 million estate featuring panoramic gyms and Waldorf Astoria-grade mattresses—a "triple delight" for loungers 😴 ▫️ A rare 500-acre hydrangea sea in the Jiangzhehu region, "heart-stoppingly beautiful," with effortless Instagram-worthy shots 📸 ▫️ Kids picking tea leaves or digging bamboo shoots "lost in play," while moms lift weights with "uninterrupted forest views" 🏋️♀️ ▫️ Just 15 minutes from Yangzhou Station, seamless transfers "worthy of tipping the driver" 🚗 ▫️ Watching dogs romp through pine woods, instantly "scheduling a return trip" for furry friends 🐾 Tap below 🎨【Exclusive Hidden Gems】 1️⃣ Slender West Lake Night Cruise ✨: Painted boats shatter starlight; Hanfu and lanterns are "keys to unlocking the night." 2️⃣ Fushengji Bookstore 📚: A café-bookshop next to Zhu Ziqing’s home, where biscuit crumbs blend with coffee stains, "adding drama to pages." 3️⃣ Pinecone Hunter 🎁: Morning runs yield pocketfuls of pinecones, crafted into "breathing travel souvenirs." 4️⃣ Canal Mystery Game 🕵️: Kids become "history detectives," piecing together "millennia-old stories" from artifact clues. 5️⃣ Caiyi Street Night Feast 🍲: Follow locals to crispy pork trotters, slurp shrimp roe dumpling noodles, then "lick your fingers clean." 🌿【Pro Tips】 June transforms the manor into a "hydrangea ocean" 🌸 Book a stay for free farm-picking vouchers 🍅 Compared to crowded attractions, it’s like gifting yourself "spring sealed in a glass jar" 🌿

Woke up at 5 AM for a bite of morning tea, but ended up drunk by the Slender West Lake until dusk!
