Zhongshan | A trip to a small town that heals the soul🏮

#中山之旅 I was lost in my busy life, but I was gently healed by this treasure town of Zhongshan! Take advantage of the Spring Festival holiday and come to Zhongshan to experience the leisure and beauty~ 🏮The Spring Festival atmosphere is super strong It’s not even New Year’s Eve yet, but the streets and alleys are already full of the New Year atmosphere. Two weeks in advance, the stalls selling Spring Festival couplets open for business, and the handwritten couplets are full of the fragrance of ink and blessings. Many small shops also close early as everyone is preparing for family reunion. This slow-paced life makes people feel peaceful. Must-visit attractions 1. Zhongshan Museum: The walk-in exhibition hall makes history within reach, as if traveling through time and space, and feeling the daily life of the past, perfect for taking photos and checking in. 2. Xiangshan Commercial Culture Museum: Immerse yourself in Xiangshan commercial culture, learn about the entrepreneurial stories of our ancestors, and gain a deeper understanding of the city’s heritage. 3. Sunwen West Road Cultural Tourism Pedestrian Street: The arcade buildings are very Lingnan style. There are various time-honored shops and special snacks along the way. You can eat while walking around, which is very lively. 4. Zhan Garden: A classical Lingnan garden with pavilions, towers, bridges and flowing water. Here you can appreciate the beauty of traditional architecture and enjoy a quiet time. Zhongshan on the tip of your tongue 1. Harbour City: The "top stream" in the morning tea world, shrimp dumplings, siu mai, rice rolls and other dim sum are exquisite and delicious, but there are many people and you need to queue up in advance, and the price is slightly higher. 2. He Ji: Pork kidney and chicken noodles are the signature dish. The rich ginger flavor warms the body and stomach. Various ingredients can be matched at will, and the price-performance ratio is very high. 3. Shiqi Lao: Authentic Zhongshan cuisine, the signature squab has crispy skin and tender meat, juicy when you take a bite, and the special clay pot rice is also worth a try. Good place for leisure Qijiang Park: The "green lung" of the city. Stroll along the river and enjoy the scenery on both sides of the river. You can also see families having picnics and couples taking walks. Find a lawn to sit down, bask in the sun, and feel the breeze. It is extremely comfortable. Zhongshan is such a city full of surprises. Whether it is its history and culture, delicious food, or leisurely pace of life, it is fascinating. This Spring Festival, come to Zhongshan and start a healing journey!

Sunwen Xilu, 孙文西路, is a short but pleasant pedestrian street in Zhongshan, Guangdong. It is similar to other late Qing-Republic of China towns or streets such as Daliang in Shunde. There are plenty of qilou and other period buildings, and they've been quite well preserved (the façades, anyhow). It probably looks broadly the same as when Sun Yat-sen himself walked along this street a century ago. There are many places to get a snack or a drink along the street, as well as a few places for a more substantial meal. I opted for liangpi, 凉皮, and passionfruit iced tea from neighbouring shops on the small square midway along Sunwenxilu. It can get quite busy there around meal times but was pretty quiet around 11 on a Sunday morning. Besides eating you can shop, mostly for knock-off clothes, or visit the neighbouring park, which is home to a famous pagoda. Afterwards take a stroll along the riverside or a ride on Zhongshan's imposing ferris wheel. #tripfoodie #urbanexplorer #lightthecity #qingmingtravel #weekend #staycation #foodieheaven #streetfood #tea #zhongshan #guangdong #sunyatsen #sunzhongshan #qilou
