| A Guide to Spring Outings and Flower Viewing Near the Shi Kefa Memorial Hall!.
When spring arrives, Yangzhou becomes as beautiful as Guangling 🌆 This season is perfect for spring outings and flower viewing in Yangzhou. Today, I'd like to share my visit to the Shi Kefa Memorial Hall and recommend some super beautiful places to visit nearby~
🏛️ Shi Kefa Memorial Hall
Stepping into the Shi Kefa Memorial Hall is like traveling back to that tragic and stirring period of history. The hall is surrounded by ancient trees 🌳 and a serene environment. Shi Kefa's cenotaph stands quietly, inspiring reverence. The rich historical materials in the exhibition hall vividly display Shi Kefa's life story and noble character. Those interested in history and culture shouldn't miss it.
🌸 Recommended Flower Viewing Spots Nearby
1️⃣ Plum Blossom Ridge: Located within the Shi Kefa Memorial Hall, it gets its name from the plum blossoms planted all over. In spring, the plum blossoms bloom, red like fire, pink like clouds, and white like snow ❄️ Strolling through them, the fragrance of plum blossoms fills the air, refreshing the heart. Every photo you take here is a masterpiece.
2️⃣ Slender West Lake: Not far from the memorial hall, it can be quickly reached by bus or taxi. In spring, peach blossoms, apricot blossoms, and winter jasmine bloom in turn at Slender West Lake. The weeping willows by the lake sway gently, and the lake shimmers. The beautiful scenery of "two embankments of flowers and willows leaning on the water, a road of pavilions and terraces reaching the mountain" is perfectly displayed here.
🍜 Food Recommendations
1️⃣ Gong He Chun: When you're tired from sightseeing, go to Gong He Chun for Yangzhou morning tea. Their signature shrimp roe noodles are chewy, with a fresh and savory shrimp roe flavor. Pair it with a basket of crab roe soup dumplings for a truly satisfying experience.
2️⃣ Jiangjiaqiao Dumpling and Noodle Restaurant: You must try the pot stickers here! The skin is crispy, and the filling is juicy. Have a bowl of wontons with them, and you'll be in culinary heaven.
🚗 Transportation Guide
