Shuhe Ancient Town, 📍Lijiang
Embracing the culture of Lijiang and visiting “Shuhe Ancient Town” was one of the most inspirational cultural towns I have visited in Yunnan 🤩
The town is located 30 mins away from Lijiang Train Station and has various hotels and home stays located within the town the brings the ambience together. 🤩
Walking around the streets, you’ll come across various cultural shops selling yunnan inspired gifts, there are various restaurants that serve authentic yunnan food and trust me the lamb skewers are absolutely delicious.. They are a lot of coffee shops along the river stream and bars where you can sit down and have a decent drink while people watching.. 🤩🤩🤩
If your in Lijiang, visit this ancient town and trust me you wouldn’t be disappointed 🤩🤩

WeDo Coffee and Bar - Ningbo
#createwithtrip
Living in Ningbo, I’ve come to realise how ideal it is to spend free time over in coffee shops. I’m not a huge coffee drinker but finding little places like this WeDo Coffee and Bar makes it worth visiting. This cafe is located in Yinzhou, down a side street but did appear very popular with the locals on this wet Sunday afternoon.
The cafe switches to a bar later on in the evening but during the day you can enjoy various tea/coffee/juice drinks made in front of you. I tried the coconut latte which only comes cold for 30RMB. So tasty!
The cafe has an outdoor area, downstairs and upstairs and the staff are friendly and like to keep the place clean and tidy.

Graduate Art Exhibition, 📍Ningbo
An inspirational graduate art exhibition being held at Ningbo Museum of Art is one of the most refreshing exhibitions that i have visited in a long time.. 😃
The exhibition consists on 3 floors, packed with alot of art work, sculptures, installations produced by graduate students of Ningbo University students.. 😍
The layout and aesthetic of this exhibition is great for art teachers as it gives you concepts to work around within your own class projects. The work is absolutely amazing and alot of effort and time has been put into each artwork which is reflected throughout the exhibition hall 🤩
On top of this, they have a room dedicated just to make your instagram stories, “Insta Room” which is worth spending your time in for amazing content 😀
📍Ningbo Museum of Art
🕰 10:00 am - 16:00 pm (Mondays closed)

Art Exhibition by Chase Cha
Ningbo is home to many expats, but unknown to most of us here, talent is flowing through the expat community. Chase Cha created these pieces of art to display in Heqi Art Gallery and has even put them up for sale.
The exhibit closes on June 6th and at the weekend you can see Chase working on new pieces of art outside the gallery. It’s currently a working cultural space where the work is displayed.
Entry is 19.8RMB and it doesn’t take too long to visit all of the pieces of art, tour guides are available and staff will potentially follow you to take photos.

Modern, Clean, Comfortable w/ Asian-Style
Asia international Hotel offers a wide variety of convenient amenities for its guest, both on site and offsite. I explored the on-site dining options and had a good experience. The breakfast buffet was interesting and offered a variety of Chinese and Cantonese cuisine items that I enjoyed trying, especially the infamous dim sum. Although I expected more of a western style options, like most other hotels I’ve stayed at here in China, I was still able to enjoy my experience. The staff was amazing and very friendly. The hotel is conveniently located and I enjoyed exploring the hotel facilities.

Visit all world famous landmarks in Shenzhen
Be right back. Visiting Paris 🇫🇷 for a bit 😉
Actually, not really, your girl is still in China😂. I visited one of Shenzhen’s tourist sites: “The Window of the World”. It is a theme park located in Nanshan district. This 48 hectares theme park boasts of 130 reproductions of some of the world’s most famous tourist attractions. Some which include: A 108 metre tall Eiffel, the Pyramids, Taj Mahal, the leaning Pisa tower, the colosseum, Niagara Falls, Kenya’s Maasai Mara, the Louvre etc.
I didn’t get to see all of the 130 reproductions as the sun beat my ass that day (I’m not good with heat lol) but I did enjoy a very beautiful 50 minutes long dance show of different ethnic groups (including an African acrobatics) towards the evening time: videos of which I would post up later.
Also swipe to see photo bombs from Chinese locals😂

Great Wall: Mutianyu
My family and I decided at the last minute to visit the Great Wall during Chinese New Year 2023! It was so incredibly cold in Beijing, but we enjoyed our experience. There were basically no other visitors on this section of the wall so we were really able to enjoy the scenic spot without the crowds. During this activity we used the shuttle, and cable car available. The temperature was about 3 degrees Celsius 🥶. Overall, we had a wonderful time but I would love to go during warmer weather months as well!#greatwall #mutianyu #expatinchina #family #cny2023
