Jiangsu Wuxi | Two-Day, One-Night Cherry Blossom Viewing Guide for Qingming Festival

|Two-day, one-night cherry blossom viewing guide for the Qingming Festival. The flowers are blooming🌸, and it's time to travel again! Wuxi during the Qingming Festival holiday is like a dreamy flower city, filled with the romantic atmosphere of spring. As one of the "world's top three cherry blossom viewing spots," Yuantouzhu is in full bloom with 30,000 cherry trees covering the sky like pink clouds. Late-blooming varieties such as "Guanshan" and "Songyue" bloom in early April, following early and mid-blooming varieties, decorating scenic spots such as Cherry Blossom Valley and Changchun Bridge like a dream. Wuxi is about to usher in the cherry blossom viewing season, coinciding with the Qingming Festival holiday. Save this two-day, one-night guide now! Day 1⃣️: ✅Morning: Tai Hu Yuantouzhu Scenic Spot The cherry blossom season is crowded, so it is recommended to enter the park early. Enjoy the cherry blossoms along Cherry Blossom Valley to Changchun Bridge, and take a boat to Taihu Fairy Island to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Taihu Lake. ✅Afternoon: Li Garden (near Yuantouzhu) Pavilions, rockeries, and small bridges create an antique charm. This is one of the five major gardens in Wuxi. ✅Evening: Nanchang Street Historic and Cultural District One of the sub-venues for the Spring Festival Gala in Wuxi. Walk to Qingming Bridge, opposite the Spring Festival Gala stage. The night view is dazzling with lights and yachts. Wear a Hanfu and take photos for a stunning effect✨. Day 2⃣️: ✅Morning: Lingshan Grand Buddha + Nianhua Bay Visit the Nine Dragons Bathing Shakyamuni, Brahma Palace, Five Seals Mandala, and touch the Buddha's feet. 🏡Nianhua Bay is a small, fresh town with an ancient style, perfect for photos. ✅Afternoon: Huishan Ancient Town + Jichang Garden Another sub-venue for the Spring Festival Gala in Wuxi. Enter through the Renjie Diling Archway. The flower lanterns along the river are worth seeing, as are the numerous ancestral halls and ancient buildings. 🚶After visiting the ancient town, take a stroll in Jichang Garden, with its towering ancient trees and quiet elegance. It is one of the four major gardens in Jiangnan. 🍧Food Recommendations: Wuxi has many famous snacks. If you can't try them all in two days, consider ordering takeout to sample everything you want. 📝Here are a few of my personal favorites👇: ✅Xiaolongbao: Xishengyuan, Guxianglou (Qindexing), Xiaolaixi, Dingfuji, and Chaowangji are good choices. ✅Magnolia Cake: I think Tianfuyuan is the best, followed by Maohua. ✅Hot and Sour Soup: Heping Beef Skewers, Dingdingniu In addition, you can also order some takeout🛍 at noon in the scenic area to try our local Wuxi cuisine. Having a picnic with family and friends is easy and enjoyable! 🚊Transportation Recommendations: ✅Wuxi has convenient transportation. You can travel between scenic spots by subway🚇, bus🚌, or taxi🚗. ✅Visitors from other cities can take the high-speed train🚄 to Wuxi Station, and then take the subway🚇 or bus🚌 to the scenic spots. 🏨Accommodation Recommendations: ✅Near Taihu Lake: During the cherry blossom season, you can stay at the Cherry Blossom Villa in Yuantouzhu to take photos📷 in the park early in the morning without crowds. ✅Downtown: Around Sanyang Square and Nanchang Street, convenient for transportation and dining.
