Yixing's little secret, a small town in the south of the Yangtze River that even Su Dongpo fell for

🌸 Dear friends, I'm here to share a super beautiful little secret with you! Do you know Yixing? The hometown of the purple clay teapot, but besides the teapot, there is a place here that even the great literary master Mr. Su Dongpo longed for! 😍 📍Yangxianxi Mountain Town is hidden on the banks of Yangxian Lake in Yixing City, Wuxi, and it's completely free! 🎉 🏞️ The town is not big, but it exudes an ancient charm that hits you in the face, as if you've traveled back to those misty and rainy ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River. 🏮 Walking along the cobblestone paths, you will feel as if you have merged into a painting. 🌅 The best part is, just navigate to 'Dongpo Pavilion', and in just fifteen minutes of climbing, you can overlook the entire beauty of Yangxian Lake! Imagine standing on Dongpo Pavilion, looking out over the lake and mountains, the feeling is simply too wonderful! 🌄 And at night, Dongpo Pavilion is even more breathtakingly beautiful! ✨ 🌉 Also, don't forget to check in at the 'Qianyuan Lang Bridge'! There, you can capture the stunning view of the lake, bridge, and Dongpo Pavilion all in one frame! 📸 🎋 And there's more, 'Yixing Bamboo Sea' is also a must-visit! As one of the top ten scenic spots in Yixing, it's super close to the town, and you must go to experience the bamboo scenery there! 🍃 🏨 Lastly, I highly recommend staying at the 'Longyinxi Mountain' hotel! The environment here is simply too good, with southern gardens, covered bridges, peach groves, and streams, everything you could want! And from the hotel room, you can even have a distant view of 'Dongfang Pavilion'! 🏞️ Their restaurant is also exceptional, with delicious meals that will amaze you! 🍲 💖 In short, this small town in the south of the Yangtze River, Yixing, is really a treasure! Come here and, together with the great literary master Su Dongpo, experience that unique charm of the south of the Yangtze River! 🏞️💕
