Santaishan National Forest Park Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)
The mini train in Santai Mountain Park leisurely enjoys the summer heat
☀☀☀ The scorching sun of June heats everything up, and the air is also hot and steamy. Don't want to waste the weekend, come and see the summer Santai Mountain.
🎈🎈🎈 Take good sun protection measures, using sun protection clothing, hats, and umbrellas, but still feel it's hard to walk, then experience the mini train. Twenty yuan for stops at three attractions, can only go around once. Leisurely enjoy the summer breeze.
🌈🌈🌈 Everyone suffers from the summer heat, but I love the long summer days. Since we're here, let's settle in. The three stops are Tianhe Tower, Jinghu Lake, and Nadian Flower Sea, finally returning to the West Gate.
👍👍👍 Jinghu Lake reflects the blue sky and white clouds, the lake merges with the sky, and the water is as clear as a mirror. Sweet and lovely sleep, the reeds sway in the wind, refreshing the eyes. 😄
💔💔💔 Disappointed with Nadian Flower Sea, the best time is in May and October, now it's hot and bare, with some yellow flowers scattered in the distance.
👌🏻 The parking lot is at the West Gate, with plenty of parking spaces, five yuan each time. You can rent bicycles, and currently, there is no time limit for college entrance examination students. The gift shop has various local products to take home.
Jiangsu's Little Sanya, taking you to summer in advance.
Jiangsu is a city with ancient cultural charm, boasting a long history and the tenderness of the south of the Yangtze River. In this precious land of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, I discovered a little-known niche city with few people but beautiful scenery.
🍃 What attracts me more is that here, not only can you find cultural history, but also 'sea' beaches and mountains full of blooming flowers.

Visit the Santai Mountain National Forest Park to enjoy the pear blossoms and February orchids
"Santai Mountain National Forest Park, you really had a blooming good time"
Spring steps lightly into the Santai Mountain National Forest Park, and with a heart full of anticipation, I enter this ocean of flowers.
Pear blossoms are like snow, pure and flawless. They bloom on the branches, like a group of pure fairies, light and elegant. A breeze blows, and the pear blossoms fall like snow, forming a beautiful flower rain that intoxicates.
The February orchids spread like purple clouds among the woods. They complement the pear blossoms, forming a colorful tapestry. The flowers of the February orchid are small and exquisite, emitting a faint fragrance, bringing a sense of tranquility and beauty.
I wander through this sea of flowers, as if I am in a fairyland. The white of the pear blossoms and the purple of the February orchids intertwine, making the world before my eyes especially dreamy.
Upon closer observation, I find that each flower has its unique posture. Some pear blossoms are budding, while others display their beauty fully; the February orchids are like a group of lively sprites, dancing cheerfully in the breeze.
In this world of flowers, I feel the charm and warmth of nature. They do not need words, yet they convey endless beauty and hope.
I take out my camera, wanting to capture these beautiful moments forever. Each photo is like a work of art, recording the beauty and mystery of this sea of flowers.
When I leave the Santai Mountain National Forest Park, my heart is filled with longing and reluctance for this sea of flowers.

The Ancestral Home of Xiang Wang Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)
The first time I wore a Chu suit, I shot it in the scenic spot of Suqian Xiangwangs hometown.
Xing Yu and Yu Ji of the childhood sweetheart, still obey each other after adulthood. In the troubled times, Xiang Yu only guarded Yu Ji. For the trepidation of the army, Yu Ji did not hesitate to pull the sword.
Some love, too thick and too thick, people dare not to bear, but also quietly yearning for.
In the years to come, I hope that there will always be someone who loves everyday life, bones and blood, and soul.
Before you, love yourself.
Aspiring to be a hero in life, and a legend in death
Even now, I think of Xiang Yu, who refused to cross the river east.
Through the poetry of the female poet Li Qingzhao, we enter Suqian City in Jiangsu Province. It is the youngest among the 13 prefecture-level cities in Jiangsu, but its profound cultural heritage is by no means inferior to the other 12 'big brothers'.

It is also one of the oldest historical and cultural districts in Suqian, exuding a scholarly atmosphere and becoming a popular spot for internet celebrities.
Xinsheng Street: Established during the Ming Dynasty, it has a history of over 400 years and is also a historical and cultural district in the old city area. After restoration, Xinsheng Street's green bricks and tiles, and the courtyard alleys seem to take you back to the 1980s. Its name means 'prosperity and thriving'. With Ming and Qing architectural styles, simple and elegant, it has witnessed the historical changes of Suqian and carries the memory of the city.
Yanghe Distillery Cultural Tourism Area: Also a famous 4A scenic area in Suqian, it introduces the ancient methods of brewing white liquor and the production of modern workshops. Supported by the underground water of Mei Ren Quan, it is able to brew an exceptional drink. Each step showcases the superb skills of the craftsmen, and Yanghe has achieved national leadership in balancing commerce with craftsmanship. During the visit, you can taste the liquor, and I also saw the private wine collection of the head of JD.com (accessible by bus🚌910).
Yuanjia Village. Suqian Impression. Zhuwaji: (accessible by bus🚌Tour 5) It's actually a market. Walking in, the road is lined with shops on both sides, but they sell Shaanxi specialties such as: rolled noodles, biangbiang noodles, steamed sponge cake, etc. The first phase has just been completed, with the second and third phases still under construction and much anticipated.

Beach Park of Luoma Lake Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)
Discover Jiangsu's 'Little Sanya' – Luoma Lake Beach Park
Recommended for: beach sunsets, exquisite sand sculptures, and nighttime sand sculpture views.
Recommended itinerary: Enter the park around 16:30 to admire the sand sculptures and play by the lakeside beach → Watch the sunset around 18:00 → Enjoy the nighttime sand sculpture views around 19:00.
Luoma Lake is a border lake between Xuzhou and Suqian, and the Suqian Beach Park is located on the east side of the lake, hence the beautiful sunset can be observed in the evening. The park's beach is made of white sand, which is soft in texture, and combined with the vast lake surface, it truly feels like being by the sea.
Don't rush to leave the park after sunset; the sand sculpture park will turn on landscape lighting after dark, which is worth seeing.
The scale of the sand sculptures in the park is quite large, with themes of aerospace, including Shenzhou 9, the Three-Body sand sculpture theme, as well as children's favorites like Ultraman and Transformers themes. Personally, I find the giant astronaut sand sculpture to be the most beautiful.
During weekdays, some stalls and facilities in the park are not fully operational, and there is a lack of commercial activity near the scenic area, with only a few small vendors near the main entrance selling grilled sausages, stir-fried noodles, ice jelly, cold drinks, beach toys, etc.
Luoma Lake anecdotes:
Historically, Luoma Lake was also known as Lema Lake, Loma Lake, and Male Lake. The 'History of the Song Dynasty' records that in the fifth year of the Shaoxing era (1131), Jin troops crossed the Huai River and camped at Lema Lake in Suqian County. The 'Huai'an Prefecture Records' state that it was originally called Lama Lake, which received the waters from the Yimeng Mountains and formed a vast expanse. 'Luoma' is a homophone for 'le' (joy) and 'luo' (fall), named after the ancient Jin soldiers who once camped here.
Jiangsu's Little Sanya! Went to the lakeside to watch the sunset
Friends thought I went to Sanya, but no, this is the Luoma Lake Beach Park in Suqian, Jiangsu. Love yourself well, be brave to just go, and contemplate in the sunset, marveling at the wonderful world of nature.
There's a super large beach, with sand sculpture art pieces, and a huge lake that sets off the sunset beautifully. If you didn't know, you'd really think I went on a beach vacation...
Entrance fee is 30. Free parking is available by the roadside, and currently, there are few people around, not much to eat nearby, but it's especially good for taking photos.
Ladies, you must wait until four or five o'clock to take pictures with the carousel, it's absolutely amazing, don't hesitate, let's get moving, charge!
The white carousel at sunset is simply too romantic
📍Address: Luoma Lake Beach Park, Suqian City
🅿️Parking: There is a free parking lot outside
🎫Admission: 30/person, free for children
⏰Business Hours:
09:00-20:00【Peak Season: April 30th - October 7th】09:00-17:30【Off Season: October 8th - April 29th】
🏜Luoma Lake Beach Park:
The beach park is located in the Luoma Lake Tourist Resort, and the long beach line is divided into 3 major areas: leisure area, sports area, and Shuiwan beach. The sand here is very soft, and it feels comfortable to step on it with bare feet.
🎠The white carousel, wild beach motorcycles, and the rope net tribe that children love to play with are the amusement park's chargeable items. Yachts can also be experienced by paying an additional 10 yuan when purchasing a ticket, but queuing is required.
Jiangsu Little Sanya|Go to the lakeside to watch the sunset
|Go to the lakeside to watch the sunset. It's good to come around six-thirty, just in time to see the sunset, it's super beautiful! Although it's not by the sea, it's comparable to the seaside, there are very few people, the lake doesn't have as big waves as the sea, it's very safe
If you want to take a speedboat, it's recommended to arrive before six, the speedboat ends at six, you can enjoy air conditioning in the visitor center
It's really hot when the sun hasn't set, it's so beautiful at sunset, it's a very hidden scenic spot
