Enjoy Xitang with your kids for free! Secrets for a night out and dining

💰Tips for free admission tickets
Go to scenic spots before 8 AM and after 5 PM to enjoy the waterside scenery for free, saving you the ultimate money!

🚗Lazy transportation tips:
If you're driving, simply search for parking near your B&B. Park the car and take your kids for a quick stroll.

Take the high-speed rail to Jiashan South Station, then take a 20-minute taxi. Your kids can even catch up on some sleep in the car! 😴

🍚Dinner surprise:
I was planning to follow a guide, but the restaurant I stumbled into turned out to be a treasure!
If the private rooms were full, I opted for a second-floor river view. My kids stared out the window at the boat lights and clapped their hands.
Highly recommend the abalone and eggplant! 🍆! My kids ate way more than they could chew, even grabbing an extra bowl and still asking for more!
The restaurant offers free costume changes, perfect for photogenic kids 📸
📍Tangxian Garden Restaurant

✨Three essentials for a night out with the kids:
1️⃣ Take a boat ride and watch the swaying lights.
2️⃣ Listen to a few songs while walking by the bar street, with your kids bobbing their heads to the beat (if you're worried about noise, just watch from a distance and capture the atmosphere).
3️⃣ Lanterns strung together along the street create a retro vibe in every photo.

🌶️Soul-stirring late-night snack:
Stinky tofu with sweet and spicy sauce, the kids are scrambling for it;
Wonton soup is so delicious you'll lick the spoon, your little mouths slurping up the wontons like vermicelli noodles;
Snack on small pieces of gorgon fruit cake – soft and chewy without sticking to your teeth;
Shredded radish pancakes are hot right out of the pan, but crispy when cooled. 😋

☀️The perfect breakfast the next day:
The little soy milk and fried dough stick shop near Fang Wenshan's studio, yyds!
The fried dough sticks were so crispy they crumbled, and my child grabbed one in each hand, dipping it in soy milk and eating it like a little cat.

When taking your kids to Xitang, don't just focus on the sights!

The slower pace of the night tour, coupled with a heavy carb diet, made the kids so happy they didn't want to leave!
