🍜Great value food recommendations:
Victory Hotel is an internet-famous restaurant. It was too crowded, so I can't comment on it much, but the photos are quite unique.
I recommend going to Wanshangmian Noodle House, near the wine cellar and Guanjiangyuan.
Super affordable pork ribs and pork liver noodles for only 15 yuan! Very affordable! I recommend the pork liver noodles, they're super delicious.
The chef fries each bowl fresh in a wok, and it's not fishy at all.
It's incredibly fragrant! 😋
Finally, we stopped by the library and cafe at the Granary to enjoy some downtime. ☕️
This weekend is truly relaxing~

Haiyan is a small county town in Jiaxing Chendang is a small ancient town in Haiyan This is the hometown of Mr. Yu Hua, his home, and the place where he writes... - An abandoned barn has been transformed into a gathering place for literary youth after renovation. Conceived geometry has opened a bookstore, coffee shop, and bar here. The three spaces are full of design sense👍🏻The bookstore has a tall wall of books, and the use of lights gives a strong visual impact. - The coffee shop facing the bookstore should be the largest in Jiaxing. Unfortunately, it was close to closing time when I arrived at the store that day and I couldn’t order. I didn’t drink the coffee☕, but I liked a lot of cultural and creative peripherals. Later, I was led to the space where he made special blends and had a simple sip. - 💡Tips 📍Jiaxing Haiyan Chendang Barn 🈺Barn Bookstore 9:00-20:00, Coffee Factory 9:00-18:00 🅿️Free parking🆓 📸Photography and check-in are still very good.

1.5 hours from Shanghai, Jiaxing is a city that many people prefer to visit on weekends. I have been there twice with my children and summarized some experiences to share with you👇🏿 Check-in recommendation 1⃣️Xitang Ancient Town A trip to Jiaxing without visiting Xitang is incomplete. The bluestone road, rowing boats, white walls and black tiles, a thousand years at a glance, the child said he was in ancient times and saw many fairy sisters🧚♀️ (It is very cheap to take ancient costume photos here...) We went there twice and both said it was very fun~ 🎫Tickets: 85 yuan for advance booking and 95 yuan for the day (money-saving tips: book a hotel in the scenic area, it is free to enter the scenic area after 5 pm until you come out at any time the next day🆓) Recommendation index: 🌟🌟🌟🌟 ✔️About the hotel: I have discovered a treasure homestay, and I stayed at her house both times! Super cost-effective👍, only 200+ on weekends and it is in the scenic area, which is really rare! I didn't have high hopes, but I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived. There is a stargazing terrace 🌃, a sky garden 🖼, and the layout is antique ~💯 2⃣️ Haiyan Windmill It's not that there are no windmills in Shanghai, but there is a long and narrow trail under the windmill here. When the weather is fine, it is very pleasant to stroll here. A photo with the windmill is a blockbuster~ Recommendation index: 🌟🌟🌟🌟 3⃣️ Haiyan Tide Viewing Garden It is near the windmill, and children can experience the sea. Recommendation index: 🌟🌟🌟🌟 4⃣️ Shendang Barn Geometry Bookstore Internet celebrity bookstore, you may also meet Mr. Yu Hua by chance. The architectural space design is very interesting, but children may not be interested. It is suitable for literary youths to check in. Recommendation index: 🌟🌟🌟 5⃣️Shen Dang Brewing Brewing Garden Intangible cultural heritage experience, 🏭 In the brewing workshop, you can see the rice wine brewing process from steaming rice, fermentation, raking, frying wine, etc. Children 🉑️ see with their own eyes how grains are turned into mellow wine, which is entertaining and educational. The drying factory is spectacular! Recommendation index: 🌟🌟🌟🌟 6⃣️Happy Sheep Village Near the Xitang Ancient Town, the children's amusement park with the elements of Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf is very photogenic. It is not actually big, but children like to play very much. Recommendation index: 🌟🌟🌟 ✔️About dining: 1⃣️In Xitang Ancient Town, I followed dp to a highly rated Tangxian restaurant. The Tao meal for four people was 200+, delicious😋 and very suitable for children. The large quantity was not finished at all; 2⃣️The Shengli Restaurant in Shendang Ancient Town is also a must-visit Internet celebrity spot, delicious and not expensive! Avoid pits: ❌Don’t go to Dongming Dairy Farm, it is dirty and smelly, and the management is chaotic. Any farm in Huzhou is much better than this for feeding cows! ❌Gofession Chocolate Town may be more interesting if there are activities at night, and it is not worth the ticket at all during the day. ❌If you go to Xitang, you don’t need to go to Yuehe Old Street again. The scenery is very repetitive. ----------------------------------------- Hi👋, I'm Nuantuanzi🍡 An ordinary mother who explores various ways to take her baby out for a walk💃 Follow me🐷, and you'll find fun baby walk guides The homepage has more recommendations for fun places in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai #西塘古镇 #嘉兴旅游
In the spirit of niche film production, I went to Haiyan County during the long vacation. When I arrived, because it was the first stop, there were three or four cars parked in the entire parking lot, and the whole place was reserved [Clap]. When I left, the parking lot was full [CoolGuy] 📍The intersection of Xuejia Road and Yongqing Line in Chendang Town, Haiyan County, Jiaxing City 🎫Free, it used to be really cold for a while, but recently because of Yu Hua's weekend holiday, its popularity has obviously returned. 🌟 It was rebuilt from 13 well-preserved granaries. The landmark building is a vertical cylinder warehouse. At that time, the vertical cylinder warehouse can be said to have greatly increased the grain reserve. 🌟 With the passage of time, these vertical cylinder warehouses were transformed into today's cultural park with bookstores, coffee shops, and children's outdoor non-powered playgrounds as the center. ✅Recommend visiting the Barn Bookstore, who makes us half cultural people [TeaDrinker] ✅Tired, I went to Conceive Geometry to drink a cup of coffee! I only recommend Chendang Latte, which combines coffee and rice wine. It is a bit unique and the taste varies from person to person, but every sip seems to contain the past of Chendang. ✅I personally think that the facilities in the children's playground are relatively simple. #Places that are asked about by friends circle #Where to go on weekends #Good places for leisure #Niche Discovery Club #Have fun with friends
