Help! I stayed in an ancient Ming and Qing dynasty hotel in Ningbo that you can only reach by boat!

The Kaiyuan Guantang brings the Jiangnan water village directly into reality. Behind the door is an ancient Ming and Qing dynasty house that was dismantled and rebuilt. You can take a boat through the Yao River to get to your room. It's not enough time to play with my bestie!

🏯 Real experience:
▫️ Take a boat from Yangming Ancient Town for 40 minutes through the rice fields. The butler rows the boat, creating a sense of the "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" painting.
▫️ Open the creaky wooden door and travel back to ancient times in a second! The guest rooms are Qing dynasty mansions that have been moved in their entirety, and even the swallow nests on the beams have been preserved.
▫️ The rice field train runs along the sunset (CNY 38/person! Feeding alpacas + picking oranges is super de-stressing)
▫️ Follow the intangible cultural heritage master to paint oil-paper umbrellas, and the handmade fish lanterns were praised as "more exquisite than those in the museum!"

✔️ CNY 700 million was spent to replicate 3 ancient Ming and Qing buildings (Gengdu Hall/Sixi Hall/Chengqing Hall)
✔️ Rice field train + cute pet park + frog playground (CNY 20 per person, you won’t want to leave)
✔️ Intangible cultural heritage experience day: Fish lantern/oil-paper umbrella/group fan handmade (only open on weekends!)
✔️ Hanfu experience + ancient sachet making (the hotel lends clothes and helps with makeup!)

🚢 Transportation guide:
Take the high-speed train to Yuyao North Station for 20 minutes → take a taxi to Yangming Ancient Town Pier → take a boat for 40 minutes to the hotel

❗️ Key reminder: The rice field train stops running at 4pm! If you want to take pictures of the sunset and chase the train, get there early!

⚠️ Lessons learned from blood and tears:
Don't wear white shoes when taking pictures in the rice fields! You need to buy special feed to feed the cute pets in the park (CNY 10/bag)
It is recommended to choose Ming-style Hanfu for the Hanfu experience! Handmade fish lanterns can be taken away, but they are super important to express!
