Summer in Yangzhou: A Refreshing and Beautiful Encounter

Part 1: Early Summer, Enveloped in the Gentle Embrace of Jiangnan 🍵 "Morning skin wrapped in water, evening water wrapped in skin"—the lifestyle of Yangzhou locals is truly enviable! The beauty of Yangzhou isn’t just in March; each season has its own romance. Wearing Hanfu, I wandered through ancient alleys, and every casual snapshot turned into a vintage masterpiece, effortlessly stealing the spotlight on social media ✨! Taking the kids on a paddleboat ride across Slender West Lake, when passing by the Twenty-Four Bridges, my little one suddenly recited, "The moonlit night at Twenty-Four Bridges," instantly transforming into a "tiny poetry scholar" 📖~ At a time-honored teahouse on Dongguan Street, we savored morning tea, and with one bite of the crab roe soup dumplings, our family’s delicious journey began! Part 2: The Ultimate Kid-Friendly Gem — Runde Phil Hotel in Yangzhou This hotel, built with an investment of 90 million, is surrounded by thousands of acres of black pine forests and features all-wooden loft rooms. Open the window, and you’re greeted by a sea of blooming flowers 🌸—no words can express how much I wish I’d discovered it sooner! ✅ The vast black pine forest acts like a natural oxygen bar, perfect for summer escapes, fishing, and water fun. The flower fields are incredibly photogenic, and the variety of activities keeps kids entertained until dusk. Families from Shanghai, Hangzhou, and beyond can blindly choose this spot for their summer vacation—it’s a no-brainer! ✅ Just a 15-minute drive from Yangzhou Station, it’s hassle-free for those with luggage or pets. Rumor has it that 30% of guests bring their furry friends along—how pet-friendly is that? 👉 Click below to discover more! Part 3: Locals’ Secret Spots Revealed—All Tested and Super Fun 🐈🌿 At dawn, cycle leisurely along Jianzhen Road, feeling the gentle breeze. In the evening, head to a café on Pishi Street to "pet cats and watch the sunset," effortlessly scoring Instagram-worthy shots. Get up close with sika deer at Zhuyu Bay, instantly boosting the family fun! Play hide-and-seek among the rockeries in Ge Garden, savor lotus root starch balls on Dongguan Street, then immerse yourself in the Grand Canal Museum’s 3D canal experience—a feast for the senses. The Slender West Lake Hot Spring Resort even has a kids’ pool, and after playing, sink into a Waldorf-style mattress—so comfy you won’t want to move! Part 4: Reasons to Pack Your Bags—All Thought Out for You 🚄 High-speed rail makes travel a breeze, with easy access from Shanghai, Hangzhou, and beyond—no need to stress over expensive flights. No ideas for weekend fun with the kids? Enjoy two days and one night at this sprawling hotel, with summer escapes and water activities all in one. Worried about pet travel hassles? Fear not—even dog bowls are provided, so your furry pals can join the fun! Folks, for a refreshing summer getaway, Yangzhou is the place to be—it won’t disappoint!
