Impressions of Wuxi: the ancient charm of Nanchan, the night scene of Nanchang, and the rainy mood of Hui Mountain

Impressions of Wuxi: the ancient charm of Nanchan, the night scene of Nanchang, and the rainy mood of Hui Mountain. 🌞Wuxi Trip: Encounter the tranquility of Nanchan, indulge in the night scene of Nanchang, and stroll in the rain of Hui Mountain🌧️ In this early summer season, I embarked on a journey to Wuxi, filled with infinite longing for this Jiangnan water town. At noon on the 18th, with the sun shining brightly, I arrived in this gentle city. The distance from the high-speed rail station to the hotel was just a stone's throw away, convenient and comfortable. The hotel was elegant and affordable, with a chain quality for about 160 yuan, making me feel warm and cozy. What's more delightful is that it's located right in the embrace of Nanchan Temple and Nanchang Street, as if it was a resting place tailor-made for my trip. 🏞️After dropping off my luggage, I couldn't wait to step into this ancient and charming world. Despite the high sun, the enthusiasm of the visitors was undiminished, and the solemnity of Nanchan Temple and the prosperity of Nanchang Street intertwined into a vivid picture. I wandered among them, feeling the historical charm emanating from every brick and tile. As night fell and the lights came on, the night scene of Nanchang Street was even more breathtaking. Compared with Nanjing and Suzhou, it had a unique flavor that made people linger and forget to return. Sitting alone under the bridge, avoiding the scorching sun, and enjoying the pleasant breeze on my face, at that moment, time seemed to stand still, and my soul found unprecedented peace. 🌧️However, the weather in Jiangnan is always changeable. That night, a light rain continued, heralding the arrival of the plum rain season. Although the rain was not heavy, it added a bit of poetry to my trip to Hui Mountain the next day. I bought tickets in advance and stepped into this ancient town with a long history. Hui Mountain Ancient Town, like many other Jiangnan ancient towns, is filled with a strong commercial atmosphere, but its simplicity and tranquility still intoxicate. The Suzhou-style gardens in the rain appeared even more gentle, with each raindrop seeming to tell a thousand-year-old story. Regrettably, due to the slippery roads in the rain, I was unable to climb to the top of Hui Mountain, but this regret also became a thought for a future revisit. 💡Here, I would like to remind friends who are about to embark on a journey during the Jiangnan plum rain season to check the weather forecast before setting out and to make rainproof preparations. A pair of waterproof shoe covers might make your journey more relaxed and enjoyable. At the same time, please also pay attention to safety and enjoy every intimate encounter with nature. My trip to Wuxi not only allowed me to experience the tranquility of Nanchan and the night scene of Nanchang but also let me find a spiritual home in the rain of Hui Mountain. This city, in its unique way, tells the story of Jiangnan, waiting for every traveler to listen and comprehend.
