Yanguan Travel Guide|Unlock the Relaxed Vacation Mode

🚗 A 1-2 hour self-drive from Shanghai, just a press on the accelerator to reach Yanguan. No need for planning, no rushing schedules, this is a spontaneous "laid-back holiday": 🌅 Wake up in the early morning to the sound of the Qiantang River tide, with the river breeze slipping through the window cracks; 🚶 In the afternoon, stroll on the ancient city’s stone-paved streets, the calls from old shops mixed with faint music, rest on the stone steps when tired, watching the sunlight flicker along the walls; 🎶 In the evening, follow the music drifting from the alleys, your steps naturally slowing down. 🏨 First night at Xuande Gate Hotel The room is stocked with washed fruits, toys for kids, and a thoughtfully prepared free minibar in the fridge; tickets for the scenic area, the tide-watching park, and free shuttle bus are all arranged, plus a 40% discount at the Music House, so you don’t have to worry about anything. 🏨 Second night switch to the Lead Singer Hotel, which includes tickets to the Music House Museum. After all, this is Yanguan Ancient City - the City of Tide Music, created by the Wuzhen operation team, where the musical atmosphere flows from street to alley. 🌃 When night falls, the ancient city lights up one by one, and the music becomes clearer—maybe a street corner artist’s singing and playing, or melodies drifting from a tavern. As you wander, your heart quiets. Yanguan is perfect for "wasting" 24 hours ⏳: 🌊 Watch the tide come in the morning, standing and daydreaming for a while; ☀️ In the afternoon, bask in the sun by the ancient city wall, watching people pass by with smiles; 🎤 At night, go to the square for an open-air concert, kids nodding their heads to the rhythm, adults humming along—there’s no better way to start a child’s holiday with music; 🏠 Returning to the hotel, the sound of the tide and river breeze drift through the window, becoming the most soothing background sound for sleep. No competing for attractions, no rushing schedules—come to Yanguan, where the holiday exists only for happiness and relaxation.
