The warm spring breeze has drifted into the ancient alleyways—exploring Jiaoxi Ancient Town

Hey everyone! I recently embarked on a poetic journey to Jiaoxi Ancient Town in Changzhou and stayed at the fantastic Wärtsilä Hotel. Come along with me to experience this unique charm! Stepping into Jiaoxi Ancient Town felt like entering a long-sealed dream. Gone were the bustling commercial streets—only ancient houses with gray bricks and tiles stood quietly. Every brick and tile bore the marks of time, whispering stories of the past. The winding cobblestone paths led me deeper into the town. Along the way, quaint homes with small bridges and flowing water dotted the landscape. The clear stream gurgled melodiously, as if the town itself were humming a gentle tune. Willow branches swayed by the water's edge, their reflections dancing like a living painting. The ancient bridge, covered in moss, added to the rustic charm. I couldn’t help but pause to capture every picturesque moment with my camera. After exploring the town, I returned to the Wärtsilä Hotel with a heart full of joy. The spacious, bright lobby and elegant decor immediately caught my eye. The front desk staff greeted me with warm smiles, handling check-in swiftly and professionally while kindly introducing the hotel’s amenities. The room was a testament to thoughtful details. The bedding was luxuriously soft, wrapping me like a cloud—pure comfort. Multiple pillow options catered to all preferences, whether you like them firm or plush. Conveniently placed bedside outlets, including USB ports, made charging devices effortless. The complimentary amenities were a delightful surprise. Beyond the usual bottled water, there were carefully curated snacks—perfect for recharging after a long day. The bathroom featured premium-brand toiletries, plush towels, and a shower with steady temperature control and adjustable pressure, offering a rejuvenating experience. The breakfast area was cozy and immaculate, offering a spread of Western options like bread, ham, and milk, alongside Chinese classics such as congee, steamed buns, and fried dough sticks. Local Changzhou specialties like sesame cakes and silver-thread noodles stole the show—the cakes fragrant and crispy, the noodles smooth in a savory broth. Every dish was fresh and meticulously prepared. This trip to Changzhou let me savor the beauty of history in Jiaoxi Ancient Town and the impeccable care at Wärtsilä Hotel. Highly recommended, folks! #JiaoxiAncientTown #WärtsiläHotel #AncientTownVibes #HotelExperience
