Things to do in Qidong

I went on August 2nd. There were no Dragon Ball activities, but the Dragon King would appear on the beach around 10 am. It was too hot, so I could only watch them head to the beach and didn't get to experience it myself. The photos were taken in May of this year; the weather was perfect, and the haul was good. If you're bringing children, I recommend wearing beachcombing gear.

Bihai Yinsha is an artificial beach with fine sand. The scenery on sunny days is very soothing and perfect for taking photos. The infinity pool is under construction, so I don't know its current status. It's suitable for family leisure, and playing in the sand and water is very relaxing. The downsides are that it's an artificial sea area, not the natural ocean; and it's located in the suburbs of Qidong, so transportation is inconvenient and requires a car. If you're staying at the Evergrande Venice Hotel, you might want to check it out.

There weren't many visitors; in just over two hours, I saw fewer than 100 tourists. The only performance was a lantern parade; the performance areas were empty, just lights and props, no performances, no tourists. Perhaps there will be more performances during the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day holidays when there are more people!

Yuantuojiao Scenic Area is located in the southeast corner of Yinyang Town, Qidong District, Nantong City, Jiangsu Province, marking the easternmost point of Jiangsu Province. • Geographical Location: Sunrise can be seen here at 5:00 AM, about an hour earlier than other places, hence the name "Yinyang." From Yuantuojiao, the vast Yangtze River meets the sea, and the East China Sea and Yellow Sea also separate here, creating a spectacular confluence of three waters. • Historical Evolution: The scenic area was established in 1998. In November 2013, the Nantong Municipal People's Government approved the establishment of the Qidong Yuantuojiao Municipal Tourism Resort, with a planned area of ​​33 square kilometers. • Key Attractions: The Yangtze River Merges into the Sea Monument, built in 1998, is shaped like a ship, symbolizing the Yangtze River's journey from its source to the sea. There's also China's largest stone statue of Yu the Great, standing 19.99 meters tall, located in the central part of the scenic area. Yinyang Tower, located outside the seawall in the northeast corner of the scenic area, offers stunning views of the sunrise over the sea and the sunset over the Yangtze River. • Tourist Attractions: This area is a renowned sunrise viewing spot in the Yangtze River Delta region. The newly built 360-degree panoramic glass viewing platform offers visitors a panoramic view of the magnificent confluence of the river and the sea. The scenic area also boasts a 3-kilometer-long golden sandy beach, with newly introduced activities like beach volleyball and kite surfing, and evening bonfire parties. • Ecological Environment: The scenic area includes a 2,000-acre wetland park, traversed by a 5-kilometer-long wooden boardwalk, where visitors can spot flocks of egrets and herons foraging on the mudflats. The scenic area has also established a bird monitoring station, which has recorded 186 bird species so far, including 28 nationally protected bird species.

Overall it's good. When we went there, four of the five countries were open, and the kids were a little disappointed 😔 There are many fallen leaves in the hot springs, and the precipitated dust is not cleaned up in time Each children's play pool is supervised by staff, which is worthy of praise In addition, the food is not expensive but the variety is a little less Finally, I would like to comment on technician No. 88, the massage is so comfortable I will probably go again, after all, it's very close to Shanghai!

It's a great place for a leisurely stroll, where you can discover new species at your own pace. It's perfect for those who love breathing in the fresh air of a forest, enjoy the plants, and are pet lovers. There are also amusement areas, though they're a bit "retro." There's even a marriage registration office and a wedding lawn 😂. Personally, I think if you just want to relax and unwind without leaving Shanghai, you could stay at a hotel across from the park for two days, wake up naturally, and then stroll through the park.

The Bund in Shanghai is a must-visit spot. On one side are centuries-old buildings from around the world, with the Customs House and clock tower creating a particularly atmospheric ambiance at night. Across the river are the iconic Lujiazui skyline. It's recommended to visit in the evening to first enjoy the river view during the blue hour, and then admire the dazzling night view once the lights come on. Cruise ships glide slowly across the river, creating beautiful reflections of light on the water. You can also stroll along the riverside promenade, easily capturing stunning photos of the Lujiazui skyline across the water.

The park was packed with tourists during the autumn outing, but this VIP package allowed us to enjoy all the attractions at our own pace. We also had complete freedom to watch the fireworks and parades, with excellent views, and we could enter the park early with a dedicated entrance. It was a great deal and very convenient.

This was a lovely way to start our trip in China. Our first city to visit was Shanghai, and we knew we would be tired from our evening arrival. We decided to opt for the Taste of China lunch. We knew this would help us to get moving the next day, enjoy excellent food, and provide us with additional details regarding the food experience in China’s various regions. My husband and I were seated next to two ladies traveling from Korea, and we had the opportunity to get to know them as well, and are now in contact bby social media (and added benefit we hadn’t expected). We enjoyed the food, the show, and the pacing. This is a wonderful place for kids and families, and something that can be enjoyed without tons of walking on the day of arrival or next morning.
