Chángshú City Wall Chrysanthemum Exhibition|Wear an Autumn Oil Painting on Your Body, Chic and Elegant

The chrysanthemum exhibition at Chángshú City Wall truly welds the "Autumn Backyard Garden" into the scenic area. Stroll along the blue brick road with a cup of coffee in hand, every step feels like stepping into an oil painting✨ 🌼 Highlights: A 100% photogenic autumn secret spot 1. "Little Great Wall of Jiangnan" Chrysanthemum Charm: Over 1,500 pots of more than ten varieties of exquisite chrysanthemums are staggered along the city wall. The pink ones are delicate, the yellow ones bright, colliding with the mottled bricks to create a vintage feel. Leaning casually against the battlements, you can easily take French-style artistic photos. ​ 2. Layered Surprising Scenes: Each layer of the city wall has a different themed setup, paired with rustic scenes of drying corn and pumpkins, mixed with classical architecture, creating a fully chic atmosphere. ​ 3. The Painting Studio Hidden in the Chrysanthemum Garden: The exhibition hall displays autumn-themed artworks. When tired of walking, step inside quietly to enjoy the exhibition; every casual shot is an artistic nine-grid photo. ​ 📍 Must-know Basic Information - Exhibition Period: October 18 - November 18 (Miss it and wait a whole year!) ​ - Address: Ticket Office at West City Pavilion, West Gate Street, Yushan Subdistrict, Chángshú City (opposite No.1 Middle School) ​ - Opening Hours: 8:15 AM - 4:15 PM (last entry at 4:00 PM; recommended to visit before 9 AM or after 3 PM for soft lighting perfect for photos) ​ - Admission: 30 RMB/person (includes city wall + Sword Gate + Baoyan joint ticket), free with tourism annual card. 🅿️ Transportation & Parking Tips - For self-driving, navigate directly to "Yushan City Wall Parking Lot" (Beimen Street). ​ - Recommended to park at Shanqianfang Cultural Tourism Street, a 5-minute walk to the site. ​ - Public Transport: Take the bus to "West Gate Street" stop, then a 3-minute walk to the scenic entrance. ✨ Chic Check-in Tips 1. Outfit Formula: Light khaki, off-white, and caramel colors have the highest compatibility. Pair with a straw hat or rattan bag for a perfect match with the autumn chrysanthemum scenery; wearing Hanfu makes photos even better. In previous years, there were free Hanfu admission events (follow the scenic area’s announcements in advance). ​ 2. Props Bonus: Bring a cup of latte or Americano; holding it in photos doubles the atmosphere. Nearby coffee shops are convenient for purchase. ​ 3. Light and Shadow Secret: After 3 PM, the sunlight slants on the city wall, giving chrysanthemums a golden edge filter. Side-face backlit photos are stunningly beautiful. The romance of this autumn is brought by the chrysanthemums of Chángshú City Wall! Quickly invite your besties to this autumn date~
