Compared to Jiming Temple, I prefer this free and less-crowded cherry blossom viewing spot!

🌸 The cherry blossoms at Yangshan Park have been meticulously cultivated in recent years. Over 800 cherry trees are planted along Yangshan Lake Road, creating a sea of pink in spring. 🌳 Cherry blossom petals fall like rain along the Cherry Blossom Avenue, creating a romantic atmosphere. Strolling along the lake, the cherry blossoms reflected in the water create a picturesque scene. The visual impact is truly stunning! The cherry blossoms bloom by the water, as brilliant as snow, transforming the entire road into a fairyland. 🌿 Besides cherry blossoms, Yangshan Lake Park also boasts a vast lawn, perfect for running, playing, and especially for kids. You can even bring a net to catch small fish and shrimp in the stream. 📍 Address: Yangshan Park, at the intersection of Huanyuan Road and Jiuxiang Hexi Road, Qixia District, Nanjing 🚌 Transportation: Direct access via Subway Line 2 🎫 Tickets: Free; Parking: Available on the roadside.
