Because of Li Bai's sentence "Fireworks under Yangzhou in March"
I traveled thousands of miles to experience the spring scenery of Jiangnan🌸
During the Qingming Festival holiday, I didn't spend money to enter the scenic spot, so I took the niche attraction route~

🔸Grand Canal Museum
Be sure to make an appointment in advance! Reserve at least 4 hours of time for the tour. It's very large inside, very enjoyable and interactive (must check-in in Halls 1-3!) After the tour, arrange a classic camera spot to take pictures of the sunset here (📷 Shooting on the arch bridge next to 📍Rainbow Cuisine)
🔸Pishi Street
I went there at night and during the day, and the streets and alleys that make people feel very casual when walking have different flavors. If you want to take a picture of the "Yangzhou" wall, remember to come during the day~
🔸Yechun Garden
Compared to the crowded skinny West Lake, here is really very niche, less people and good photography ~ especially suitable for like ancient style and do not want to spend money to buy tickets into the crowded sisters ~ morning trip is centered on this 3-5 minutes walking distance can reach ~
🔸Caiyi Street
Local old street alley, along here you can walk to the Four Viewing Pavilion, in the alley next to Yiyuan you can take pictures of the same camera ~
🔸Wenchang Pavilion
It is located in the middle of the main road around the island, and is very close to the Four Lookout Pavilion
🔸Kantong Street
This is the old city of Yangzhou, the more characteristic photography is in this Hansen Bear Market, up the 2nd floor of the observation deck overlooking, you can take pictures of the lively market and 🏮 lantern night view ~ remember to come in blues time, the mood will be better ~
🔸Song Jiacheng Park
Near the east gate of Slim West Lake, this is a park where local residents come. It is now in the flowering period of February orchids. The purple orchids are as beautiful as a painting with the colorful flowers and willow trees on the lake
🔸Reclusive Slim West Lake
Sitting on the garden lakeside that is only one lake away from the Slim West Lake Scenic Area, without forcing into the scenic area, you can sit on the lake and have an afternoon tea. It's really too chill~ I instantly understood that Li Bai's recommendation was indeed not fake~
🔸Sprinkle golden peaches
The four-color peach, known as the king of Yangzhou flowers by netizens, is really stunning. For it, I got up at 5 o'clock ~ The unique appearance is like an umbrella, a tree of four-color flowers, growing on the side of the road, do not have to fly to hit the card.

Although the time is a bit rushed, Yangzhou Slow did handle me~
This time I was a bit regretful not to see the willow at its best, will definitely come again next time~
