Discover the Hidden Gem of Zhejiang: 3-Day 2-Night Self-Driving Tour to Ningbo Ninghai

🚗Where to go during the May Day holiday? Recommend Ningbo Ninghai, just a 3-hour drive from Shanghai✨ 🌿Mountains, sea, and cultural ancient towns - follow Xu Xiake's travel notes to explore Ninghai~ 📕No traffic jams throughout the journey, truly a comfortable small city with great food and places to visit👍 · 🌈【Ninghai 3-Day 2-Night Itinerary】 D1 3-hour drive from Shanghai->Guangde Temple->Sheraton Ninghai D2 Qiantong Ancient Town->Oriental Art Museum->Ninghai Forest Hot Spring Scenic Area D3 Qiangjiang Town->Return journey . ✅Guangde Temple Known as "Ningbo's Little Kyoto," it combines Tang-Song and Ming-Qing architectural styles, full of zen atmosphere. The dry landscape courtyard makes every photo look amazing📸 Easy parking, few people for better photos, though limited activities. Worth a visit if you're driving by✔ . ✅Qiantong Ancient Town A 700-year-old authentic Jiangnan ancient town where many villagers still live, and you can see grandmas washing clothes at their doorsteps~ Streams flow between white walls and black tiles. Taste Qiantong's three treasures with wheat cakes, and watch shadow puppetry at the old theater - very interesting❗ . ✅Oriental Art Museum Red lacquered wooden bridge➕koi pond, very zen-like. The gold-colored lacquer intangible cultural heritage exhibition and wooden Buddha statues are worth seeing~ The courtyard also has cute cat sculptures and an artistic bookstore📕 . ✅Qiangjiang Town Known as "Ningbo's Little Jeju Island"😂When the weather is nice, the sea is very blue and distant islands are clearly visible. There are several artistic seaside cafes here~ Even more surprising are the delicious three-flavor noodles and seafood fried rice cakes at Xiangshan Noodle House😋 . 🙋Accommodation|Sheraton Ninghai Hotel 🔸A newly opened high-standard hotel under Marriott! From the lake-view room balcony, you can see the entire Tianming Lake Park~ 🔸The lobby has an expansive view, with palm trees planted in the garden, complemented by tropical vegetation, giving a strong vacation vibe💚 🔸Super large indoor heated swimming pool✅Outdoor children's play area✅Perfect for kids to burn energy~ 🔸Tried the seasonal picnic basket at Yunyun's strong request, and chose the Chinese restaurant for dinner. Both taste and presentation were excellent😋 . Don't go to popular cities during holidays to see crowds of people📌 Instead, follow my route for reverse tourism~ Continue to explore cities around Shanghai with kids‼
