Places around Nanjing where you can stay for a whole day without spending money!

😭Departing from Nanjing for a trip This time I went to Yancheng for a micro-vacation It really exceeded my expectations! Sharing my one-day tour: In the morning, egg pancakes, fish soup noodles, and rice pancake wrapped around youtiao are essential After eating, spend the morning at the China Sea Salt Museum In the afternoon and evening, experience the beauty of ancient charm at Yanzhen Water Street~ . ✅China Sea Salt Museum (🎫Free, closed on Mondays 9:00-17:00) It's close to Yancheng Station, a place that fully showcases the charm of Yancheng culture, the museum records the history of sea salt, you can listen to explanations and look around, the architecture is very characteristic, the main building is composed of 'sea salt crystals', and it's really photogenic There's a small courtyard 🏡 next to the first floor where you can borrow books 📖 After visiting, sit on a chair and read a book 📚 It's really quite comfortable~ 🕹There are 3 free stamps (1 museum stamp + 2 Chinese character stamps, available at the information desk on the right side of the entrance) . ✅Yanzhen Water Street (🎫Free, lighting time around 18:00-22:00) Just a few steps across from the Sea Salt Museum! The night view here is quite nice, and there are performances to watch, with regular opera performances every night from 7:00-9:00. It's a great place to take photos with traditional Chinese style, with pavilions and towers standing by the water, and there are various food snacks and cultural and creative markets to browse, and you can take a boat ride at the Water Street boat dock 🛶 Enjoy the evening breeze, so chill~ There's also a landmark of Yancheng at the dock for a photo op! This one is really photogenic! . ✅Other recommended attractions to visit: Dutch Flower Sea, Dayang Bay, Chinese Milu Deer Park, Red-crowned Crane Wetland Ecotourism Area, Yellow Sea Forest Park, Zhuxi Ancient Town...
