[Yangzhou·Slender West Lake] Relaxed heart, swaying willows, slow steps, gentle warm breeze

🦢We arrived at Slender West Lake at 3:30 pm, but because we wasted quite a bit of time watching the black swans, we didn't manage to explore the entire attraction.

⏳Slender West Lake is much larger than I expected. If you have enough time, it's best to plan a half-day visit.

🌱I look forward to exploring the entire Slender West Lake when I return to Yangzhou next March.

💥Slender West Lake, formerly known as Baozhuang Lake, is a national AAAAA-level tourist attraction. It is part of the Yangzhou section of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal and a tributary of the canal. It is located at 28 Dahongqiao Road, Hanjiang District, Yangzhou City, Jiangsu Province, and covers an area of ​​700 mu.

💥Slender West Lake was formed by the ancient Grand Canal system of the Sui and Tang Dynasties and the moats built during the Sui, Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties. Its basic structure was established during the Kangxi and Qianlong periods of the Qing Dynasty. It is a typical small shallow lake, fed by the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal.

💥On June 22, 2014, Slender West Lake, a site along the Grand Canal of China, was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List, becoming China's 32nd World Cultural Heritage.
