Hey guys, if you don't know where to go during the Year of the Snake 🐍, check this out! I recommend Yixing Yangxian Ecotourism Resort 📍, where you can enjoy the festive atmosphere and have a great time in just 2 days and 1 night!
✅Day 1:
☀Morning: Yixing Bamboo Forest 🎋
You must take the new cable car 🚠 with a 360° panoramic sunroof to the highest peak in southern Jiangsu! The bamboo forest coffee cup holder is a must-have for the Lunar New Year, and it's perfect for taking photos and sharing on social media.
🎊There are also special events from the first to the fifth day of the Lunar New Year:
🎭Qing Bai Snake NPCs will be doing flash tours in the bamboo forest
🧨The God of Wealth will be handing out gold ingot chocolates
🎁The Year of the Snake-themed cultural and creative shop has many great items for you to choose from
🚴Afternoon: National Forest Park 🌳
The red lantern forest tunnel is full of atmosphere 🏮, and the giant rabbit-themed lanterns are super cute! At the ancient-style market, you can try cutting bamboo leaf window flowers and get free Spring Festival couplets!
🎯Hidden activity: Drive 10 minutes to Longchi Mountain Bicycle Park, rent a rainbow bike, and ride through the tea fields. You might even meet a tea-picking NPC wearing a bamboo hat, which is super fun!
🎆Night: Xishan Town
It's best to arrive before 18:00 and visit the Dongpo Pavilion Poetry Lantern Gallery to experience the poetic atmosphere. There will be a romantic fireworks show at 19:00 on the first and fifth day of the Lunar New Year 🎇. The tea field viewing platform is the best place to watch!
✅Day 2: Shanjuan Cave
Three must-see wonders during the Lunar New Year:
🌌The underground Milky Way waterfall cable car, where you can take photos in Hanfu, is stunning and ethereal 🧚♀️
🎭The stalactite blind box projection show starts on the hour and is super impressive
🦭The sea lion ball-tossing New Year theater is cute and fun
If you have time, you can visit Dajue Temple & Yunhu in the afternoon for a Zen experience:
🆓Free double attraction activities:
🕝14:00 Attend the New Year blessing ceremony and receive a lotus lantern
🕔16:00 Take photos of the "Buddha's light reflection" on the Yunhu plank road, which is very artistic
🕕17:30 Attend the lantern lighting ceremony and feel the lively atmosphere
This Lunar New Year, come to Yangxian to experience the bamboo forest cable car, the thousand-year-old cave, the Zen lantern festival, and the romantic fireworks all at once!
