[Zhenjiang Travel Guide] A thousand-year-old city intertwined with poetry and the aroma of vinegar ✨
📍 Itinerary Highlights
1️⃣ Xijindu
The ancient street connects the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties. Lanterns sway in the night. It is recommended to try a bowl of "Guogai Noodles" and check out the "A Glimpse of a Thousand Years" site.
2️⃣ Jinshan Temple
The origin of the Legend of the White Snake. Climb the Cishou Pagoda to overlook the Yangtze River. The Zen atmosphere is far-reaching between the yellow walls and black tiles (Ticket price: CNY 60).
3️⃣ Beigushan
"Beigu Tower with a full view of the scenery" in Xin Qiji's writings. Ganlu Temple, where Liu Bei recruited his bride, is hidden here. The river breeze blows through the relics of the Three Kingdoms.
4️⃣ Zhenjiang Vinegar Culture Museum
Unveiling the brewing process of fragrant vinegar, fun DIY experience, remember to buy a bottle of "Hengshun" as a souvenir!
🍜 Must-Eat Food
