I'm hiding in Taizhou this autumn🌿, I didn't expect that this small town in Suzhong hides so many surprises! Three days and two nights slow tour guide, take you to unlock the charm of Water City ~
[Day 1 · The ancient rhyme is long]
📍Phoenix River Scenic Area
It is recommended to come in the evening! Stroll along the 6.7km loop around the river, the sea-viewing building at the beginning of the lanterns has a special video📸 Next door is the Mei Lanfang Memorial Hall, the costume exhibition hall amazed me!
🚌Address: Drum Tower South Road, Hailing District
🕘Opening hours: 8:00-17:30
📍Taizhou Old Street
There are many intangible cultural heritage shops hidden in the Ming and Qing buildings with green bricks and black tiles. Must try: Jingjiang Crab Yellow Soup Pack (will burst with juice!), Huangqiao Grilled Cake (the freshly baked sesame is delicious)
🍜 Highlights: The hot dried silk from Zer Zhe Ju (east entrance of Old Street), 10 dollars a big plate!
[Day 2 · Cultural Tour]
📍Qintong Ancient Town
Sit through the water alley in a rocking boat and listen to the boat lady singing a minor tune at the academician's old residence. The Green Tree Zen Temple in the core area of the ancient town has 800-year-old tea trees, and the courtyard is filled with the fragrance of osmanthus in autumn
🅿️ Parking tips: North parking lot is closest to the attraction
🎫Joint ticket 80 dollars including 6 exhibition halls
📍Taizhou Museum
Shocked by the Song Dynasty "Hailing Cang" copper seal! The salt tax cultural exhibition on the second floor is especially suitable for taking children to popularize science. Remember to make an appointment for a free explanation
⏰ Closed on Monday | ID card exchange
[Day 3 · Natural Healing]
📍Lizhong Water Forest
October layer forest is dyed! Crossing the secret land of water fir on a bamboo raft, white herons skimming overhead, it is recommended to rush the fog and morning light before 9 am
💡 Hidden gameplay: The suspension bridge in the forest is super suitable for movie forest series blockbusters
🍂 Private Experience:
➤ Breakfast tea at Jindongmen Old Street, recommend Gu Yuet Lou’s fish soup noodles + crab roe bun three-piece set
➤ Remember to bring a jacket on a night trip to the Phoenix River, the bow viewing spot to grab!
➤ Chen Kee Restaurant (People's West Road Branch) is in season with Jiangyan Lake Crab in season
【Traffic TIPS】
🚄High-speed rail to Taizhou Station, the attractions take a taxi basically within 20 dollars
🚲 Old town area is recommended to ride shared electric bicycles, narrow alleys do not park
