    The Slender West Lake, as a gem of the south of the Yangtze River, is intoxicating in its beauty. It not only has picturesque lakes and mountains, but also has deep cultural heritage and historical accumulation. The water source of the Slender West Lake comes from the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, forming a unique small shallow lake landscape. In the Kangqian period of the Qing Dynasty, the basic pattern of the garden of the Slender West Lake has been formed, and its unique garden landscape and humanistic atmosphere have attracted countless literati and ink guests to praise. There are many attractions here, each with its unique cultural connotation and historical background. For example, the 24th Bridge is one of the iconic attractions of the Slender West Lake. The bridge is twisted and twisted. The bridge has a viewing building and railings. The distant view is like a rainbow hanging high. It looks like a jade belt. In addition, Wuting Bridge and Baita are also unique and make people linger. Slender West Lake is also known as one of the largest gardens in Jiangnan, and the gardens here are in the world. During the tour, tourists can feel the rich cultural atmosphere and historical heritage, as if returning to the ancient Jiangnan water town through time and space. In general, Slender West Lake is a tourist attraction integrating natural scenery, garden art, history and cultural and human landscape. Whether it is a couple outing, family trip or friends gathering, Slender West Lake is a great choice.

    They all said that the spring of the south of the Yangtze River in March is really beautiful and delicious. The Slender West Lake is not big, but it is exquisite. It is a change of scenery. During the day, people are swimming in the middle of the painting. At night, the story of literati and saucy guests is told by the light! Story everywhere

    The second time I went to the Slender West Lake, the scenery was beautiful, although it was large, but it was carefully walked down, every place was unique, it was worth savoring, but the tickets were indeed a bit expensive.

    Fireworks in March to Yangzhou is true, all people are not fake... After more than ten years, the Slender West Lake is still beautiful, people linger~📌 You must take a boat to Yangzhou, the scenery is so beautiful! From the Royal Wharf, choose the line on the right of the picture three to go directly to Xuyuan in the Slender West Lake Scenic Area. The boat journey is about 40 minutes, and it will be full (6 people/boat, business hours : 8:00-17:00). Because it is directly to the scenic area, you must buy tickets for Slender West Lake! (Buying tickets one day in advance online can be 5 yuan cheaper, there is no discount on the day) 📌 Way to the bonsai garden, free tickets! If you are interested, you can take a look (not in the Slender West Lake scenic spot). 📌 There is free mineral water on the boat. 📌 Electric boats can be rented in the Slender West Lake Scenic Area, 200/hour (5 people can sit)...One person is too uneconomical, or forget it~📌 Wenchuang Ice Cream (Figure 1), milk taste, as long as 18! Cheaper than Jinshan Temple and Chengdu Panda Base, and delicious! 📌 Picture 10, Picture 11 are 24 bridges, and they are also iconic attractions of Slender West Lake! Picture 11, the second floor, feels that you should be able to see the panoramic view of Slender West Lake, but it is transformed into a tea house, 80/person. You can't go upstairs without tea...📌 Picture 12 is the Yangpai bonsai museum, which is full of long bonsai (green plants), there is a special person to take care of, no flowers...📌 I came to the Slender West Lake 3 times (2 times are fireworks March (including this time), 1 big winter, quite bleak), The first time I insisted on entering and leaving from the south gate (the Slender West Lake is headed north and south, and most of the attractions are close to the south gate), there are still surprises! For example, the dining English villa, such as the water system miniature landscape garden, there are many sets of flowers~📌 Qionghua (Figure 5, Figure 6) has been a little thankful, it will be better sooner! 📌 There are some pits in the scenic sightseeing car. It is 20 people when you go up, not just sitting on the same day.

    Night tour Slender West Lake can experience a completely different scenery from the daytime, there are about 10 chapters of small attractions (performances), from the south gate all the way to the west gate, you can visit in order, each small performance time is not long, but the overall is still more wonderful. Several performances are circular performances, and several are time-based. It is recommended to arrange time. You can experience all the performance chapters in about two hours. In addition, the scenery of the Slender West Lake at night is also beautiful.

    It is recommended to buy a day and night package. At two or three in the afternoon, enter from the west gate to the north gate. From the north gate, make a battery car or cruise ship to the 24th bridge. It is better to watch the sunset on the Wukong Bridge and Diaoyutai side. There are snacks under the white tower. Solve the dinner problem at night, and then go from the Wukong Bridge to the south gate. It was almost dark at the south gate, and then went back according to the night tour route. The night view was super beautiful. In the evening, a staff member sent out the guide, and the service was in place 😀

    Yangzhou in March of fireworks, there are really many people. I deliberately rushed to go after the Qingming holiday. One is to think that some tourists can be digested during the Qingming holiday, and the other is to catch up with the best lunar March. I didn't expect the heat to still be high. I like this city very much, and I have to go again in the off-season.

    The Slender West Lake is beautiful and worth visiting. It is best to go in from the south gate, you can walk or take a boat. This time I came with friends and family, and there are free tickets for over 70 years old. It is recommended to take public transportation or taxi, because there are many people near the attractions and there are many cars, not very good parking.
