Discover the best small towns in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai for water activities with fewer people and beautiful scenery, making you super happy

🌈 The summer vacation is coming to an end, and traditionally it's time to get back to routine, so there are fewer tourists recently, making for a better experience~ There aren't many opportunities left to take kids for outdoor water activities. I've been seeing various fish scale dams for water play and have been wanting to go for a long time🌱 This time in Tonglu, I finally found a fish scale dam with fewer people, beautiful scenery, and plenty of water, and had a great time 🌈 Tonglu is similar to Anji, with various attractions far apart, making self-driving more convenient~ It takes about 3 hours to drive from Nanjing. Recently, it's good to have some vacuum-packed marinated eggs and chicken legs in the car, full of protein, tasty, and filling😋 Also, bring along some outdoor water play items, individually packaged for convenience~ ✅ Fish Scale Dam Location: Lianmeng Village, Baijiang Town, Tonglu The water volume here is large, with beautiful scenery backed by green mountains, and convenient roadside parking. There are many small fish in the water, so it's recommended to bring a small bucket and net, and remember to put them back in the water after playing. There are also small stalls selling water play tools nearby, so no worries if you forget to bring them~ ✅ Nearby Hidden Gem Homestay Recommendation: Guchi·Qingqiu Mountain Wild Homestay ✨ The fish scale dam was recommended by the homestay manager, and it's less than a 5-minute drive away. Besides the fish scale dam, you can spend a whole day relaxing and playing with kids at this homestay. The scenery outside the homestay is excellent, with vast green wheat fields and blue mountains, occasionally dotted with egrets, making you feel like you're in a natural painting~ ✨ The homestay's swimming pool faces the wheat fields, making it fun and photogenic. You can also watch outdoor movies while soaking in the pool at night. The quality matches the price, with a small fridge and Dyson hairdryer, and the food is delicious~ It's worth mentioning that the service is also quite good. As soon as we parked, the manager came to help with the luggage, and they responded promptly to various issues via WeChat. There's also an independent café next door, making it a great place to relax and unwind~ 🌱 It's about 50km from Qiandao Lake, so if you have enough time, consider spending an extra day there. Wishing you a happy trip
