Taste the ancient charm of Yancheng, Jiangsu, and enjoy the good times in the water street!

🌟Yancheng Town Water Street in Yancheng, Jiangsu, is located on the east side of the Yellow Sea. Naturally, there is no lack of water here. Among the ancient buildings, it is full of local folk customs. The water street is naturally also known as the 'dream ink land of Jiangsu'. 👍The water street prospered because of the salt merchants and salt people. It has preserved traditional landscapes with salt transportation culture and the historical memory of old Yancheng, such as the salt merchant guild hall, salt ancestral hall, tourist boat dock, and floating boat opera garden. The buildings in the street are quiet and beautiful with the charm of the south of the Yangtze River in the green bricks and brown tiles, which contrasts sharply with the flying eaves of the landmark building Shuiyun Pavilion. Looking up, the Shuiyun Pavilion is high and vertical into the clouds, which is particularly eye-catching. ❤Yancheng Water Street is divided into three major areas: Dazhai Gate, Tianshui Square, and Yishui Restaurant. Centered on the Shuiyun Pavilion, a characteristic block for eating, drinking, and having fun has formed around it. The mighty dragon lantern is coiled on the building, and the roadside is a uniquely shaped flower lantern. During the day, it is impossible to see the clues. In the evening, when the lights are on, it is bright and beautiful, and it is another different scene. ✅The Lunar New Year is coming soon, and the water street is naturally a scene full of New Year's flavor. Starting from the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, it will become lively here. From the first day of the first lunar month (February 10) to the eighth day (February 17), the 'Blessed Dragon Has Spirit' New Year temple fair event will be held here (appreciating dragon lanterns, four major fireworks food markets, Zen + folk performances, 'Jumping Dragon Year, Lucky Year' dragon year interactive games). 📍Water Street Address: No. 1 Middle Kaifang Avenue, Yancheng City.
