"Recommend a Lesser-Known, Fun Jiangnan Town"

🌿As the misty season of Jiangnan blurs the folds of the bluestone slabs, I encountered the gentlest spring in "Yaohu Town"—this is not a crowded, popular spot, but a "secret realm woven from pottery and tea smoke" hidden in the Yixing landscape.

✨【Why choose here?】
There is no commercial hustle and bustle, only the slow-cooked time in a purple clay teapot. The Longteng Water Show fireworks dance with the lakeside boardwalk, and the flower-sea path leads to the old tiles with the temperature of pottery. Even the wind is filled with the clear and moist Yangxian Snow Bud tea. Want to escape the crowds? Come here and adjust the rhythm to "Suzhou-style slow."

📸【Immersive Gameplay Guide】
❶ Cloud Train · Dual Time and Space Experience

- Morning Mist Special: In the early morning, take the small train surrounded by flowers into the valley. When the mist has not yet cleared, it feels like breaking into Hayao Miyazaki's fairy tale.

- Night Shift Train: At night, take the cyberpunk-style "Water Show Fireworks Special Train." The light and shadow on the lake surface flicker at the same frequency as the starry sky, and the romantic value explodes!

❷ Realm of Flowers · Valley Breathing Guide
Hydrangea waves surge into the sea, wisteria waterfalls hang over the shoulders, and stone slab roads connect the entire flower valley. It is recommended to wear a light-colored long dress and take snapshots at the corners of the flower path. Every frame is the gentleness in Monet's oil painting.

❸ Lakeside Boardwalk · Write Yourself into a Poem
The green waves of Yangxian Lake are a natural canvas, and the boardwalk trembles like a piano string. Pick a cloudy afternoon, watch the mountain shadows overlap into the clouds, and the oars cut through the reflection. A casual shot is the artistic conception of "people traveling in a painting."

❹ Mingling Street · Decoding Suzhou-Style Slow Life

- Intangible Cultural Heritage Handmade: Follow the craftsmen to learn how to make bamboo ware, and touch the temperature of old craftsmanship with your fingertips;

- Leisure in the Tea House: Order a pot of Yangxian Snow Bud tea, watch the tea leaves stretch in the purple clay teapot, and listen to the Pingtan sound spreading over the green tiles;

- Pottery Time: Make exclusive pottery in the workshop and let the wind of Jiangnan be engraved into the lines of your palm.

❺ Yaohu Bamboo Rat Water Park · Limited Coolness in May
Avoid the summer crowds, the water temperature in May is just right to "wave"! Families with children can unlock cute pet interactions, and young people can just scream and decompress in water projects~

🚗【Traffic Guide】
📍Address: Yaohu Town, Yixing, Wuxi, Jiangsu
🚄High-speed rail: 30 minutes by taxi from Yixing Station
🚗Self-driving: Navigate to "Yixing Yaohu Town", there is plenty of parking

💡【Private Tips】
① It is recommended to go on off-peak weekends/weekdays, the light and shadow in the morning and evening are the best;
② You can rent electric cars in the town, and lazy people can easily visit all the check-in spots;
③ Wear comfortable shoes, stone slab roads and flower paths are more suitable for "strolling" slowly~

🌧️If Jiangnan is an unfinished poem, Yaohu is a glimpse hidden in the rhyme. Here, time is a vessel kneaded from pottery clay, and the wind and moon turn into curling tea smoke. All you need to do is bring a sense of relaxation and fall into this spring dream of "few people and beautiful scenery."
