Nanbei Lake 🇨🇳 Zhejiang

A perfect weekend getaway. Nanbei Lake is in Zhejiang, just across the provincial border from Shanghai. The food in the town is delicious and very sweet. There were lots of restaurants and tea houses to visit. Each cluster had its own style and the people in the town were very friendly. When we were there we took the little boat out on the lake and cycled around on the 'chuckle brothers' style tandem. There are lots of hiking trails in the surrounding mountains and new routes were being forged and build in the area. Getting There- from Shanghai we opted to cycle the 130km journey, but a taxi or train and then taxi are options too. This is a spot a little off the beaten track and good opportunity to practice your Chinese #mountainview #lakes

The dike divides the north and south lakes into two, and the south lake and the north lake. Weeping willows, clear water, a few peaks and lakes, a wing pavilion. The roadside met the aunts who sold the fruits of the season and laughed and introduced how sweet the fruit in the basket. The breeze blew the lake, and I stroked my face. I painted this scene, and the breath of life was really in the air. How long has it not returned to life itself in the hustle and bustle of the earth? When the late summer and early autumn, groups of egrets flew in the name of the habitat. There are otters, promenades, flowers and trees in the island, and trees are shaded. There is a belt-shaped inner lake in the center, which has waterfowl and lotus flowers, and is called "Moon Dew Pool". The lake island and the island lake are small and chic. Bailuzhou is the best place to enjoy the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival. The scholars of the literati often come to the continent to enjoy the moon, and have the reputation of Wuhu Qiuyue, which is known as one of the eight scenic spots in Luanchuan.

Qiyuan Garden: Water follows the mountain, and the mountain is alive because of the water.

Qiyuan Garden is located in Wuyuan Town, Haiyan County, and was originally the "Feng Family Garden." Qiyuan Garden is named after "beautiful makeup," and was actually the dowry of Huang Xiu, the second daughter of Qing Dynasty playwright and poet Huang Xieqing, who married Feng Zuan, a wealthy businessman from Haiyan. When we visited, a group of elderly tourists were visiting the garden, and the quiet environment suddenly became noisy. The tour guide was explaining the Sanle Hall (Sanle comes from "Mencius": "Having both parents alive and brothers without cause is one joy. Looking up to the sky without shame and looking down to the earth without shame is the second joy. Having the talents of the world and educating them is the third joy.") We turned to the right rear and saw the owner's study. We went up to the second floor, where there was a wooden ladder and the owner's bedroom. Looking down from the window, the courtyard was green with grass and yellow with trees. On the left rear side were the lady's study and bedroom. The guide gave a special introduction to Feng Zhiliu, a polymer physicist. When introducing the characteristics of the scenic area, the guide said: "Water follows the mountain, and the mountain is alive because of the water." The ancients were sentimental about mountains and rivers, and their gardens always had mountains and water, which was a natural expression of their leisure and elegance. The beauty looks in the mirror, the butterfly comes to drip green, the ancient vine coils around the clouds, the sea moon hides, and the names are beautiful. When tourists look at the scenery, they may feel ordinary. If there is no poetry, no ink, no emotion, and no scenery in the heart, the scenery will eventually enter the circle of friends, but not the heart.

Yu Hua wasn't lying. The most beautiful sunrise can be seen in Haiyan.

🌊 I came to this hidden gem of a seaside town because of Yu Hua's line, "I want to swim until the sea turns blue." I strolled through this ancient town with a history of over 2,000 years, where you can find traces of "To Live" and "Chronicle of a Blood Merchant"... ✅ Must-visit spots 1⃣ Shendang Ancient Town The stone-paved streets of Shendang Ancient Town are lined with ancient Hui-style buildings. Victory Restaurant is a must-visit spot in this ancient town. If you happen to visit at noon, you can also try the stir-fried pork liver and yellow wine. The prototype of "Chronicle of a Blood Merchant" is also here. You can also check in at the entrance of the Xuanhu Hall Cafe and experience the local water town life. 2⃣ Shendang Granary Not far from the ancient town, you'll find a lyric wall check-in point. You can also visit the Geometry Bookstore to read Yu Hua's books and enjoy a cup of coffee. At sunset, when the sun shines in, it's truly amazing. 3⃣ Qiyuan Commercial Street Seafood stir-fry and authentic snacks are an ultimate temptation for your taste buds. 4⃣ Qiyuan The scenic area combines the beauty of Suzhou and Yangzhou, with ancient buildings, winding vines, and gardens featuring trees, mountains, and ponds. Qiyuan is known for its ten scenic spots. 5⃣ Fengyi Scenic Area A new check-in spot in Jiaxing, this place requires no tickets. It's lush and green, with houses hidden deep in the bamboo forest. Stroll along the paths and enjoy the natural air of the fields and tea gardens. 6⃣ South Lake Scenic Area Known as the "Little West Lake," South Lake offers stunning views of the lake and mountains! Take a boat ride on the lake and watch the sunset cast a golden glow on the water. At this moment, time seems to stand still. Don't forget to climb to the top of Yingke Peak for a breathtaking view of the entire scenic area. It's definitely worth the trip!

Jiaxing Fengyi Scenic Area | Life is about taking a break.

🌿A new popular spot in Jiaxing, and a AAA-level scenic village in Zhejiang Province. For Jiaxing, which has no mountains, Fengyi's Moon Lake, flower sea, tea mountain, tea garden, air-raid shelter, and mountain-top viewing platform and walkway are great places to relax and take the kids on weekends. ⏰Travel time: About 4 km in total, 108 m above sea level, loop, 3 hours 🔖Difficulty: ⭐️ 📍Location: Search for "Fengyi Scenic Area" on the map. 🅿️Transportation and parking: Self-driving, parking lot, roadside parking, free. Bus, take K213 from Haiyan Bus Station to "Lihe Bridge" stop, walk 1.3 km. 👣Travel route: Moon Lake Square ➡️ Moon Lake Pit ➡️ Fengshan Viewing Platform ➡️ Mountain Tea House ➡️ Cave Exploration (Mine) ➡️ Flower Sea Walkway ➡️ Moon Lake Square 🌈Travel recommendations ✨Moon Lake Pit Moon Lake, formed by a mine pit, is backed by Fengshan Mountain, with green water and mountains, and is a paradise for birds. Because you can see the moon on the water at night, the villagers gave it an elegant name - Moon Lake Pit. ✨Flower Sea A large flower sea on the roadside is stunningly beautiful! There are pavilions in the flower sea where you can rest. The windmill stands among the flowers and is the best photo spot. ✨Mountain Top Platform You must climb the mountain in Fengyi. Walk up the mountain path and feel the thrill of seeing all the mountains at the top. Watching the sunset here is also a good choice. Climb to the top of the mountain and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Fengyi. ✨Cave Exploration (Air-raid Shelter) There is a military tunnel site halfway up Fengshan Mountain, built in the 1950s. At that time, the army was stationed in Fengyi Village all year round and dug this tunnel on Fengshan Mountain, running from south to north through the entire mountain, with a length of more than 300 meters. You can feel the coolness as soon as you enter the cave, which is more comfortable than indoor air conditioning in the hot summer and a great place to escape the heat. ✨Mountain Tea House (Tea Garden) There is a large tea garden by Moon Lake, with houses and an ancient tea factory. The tea garden offers a tea-picking experience, where you can pick tea in Fengshan Tea Garden and experience the fun of being a tea farmer. ✨Sandbar Egret Watching Many egrets inhabit the small sandbar in Moon Lake, which can be seen from the bridge. ✨Flower Sea Walkway Backed by Fengshan Mountain, the flowers have not yet bloomed! But a walkway through the green ocean is also beautiful. ❤️TIPS: ❗️Pay attention to sun protection, and bring sunscreen hats, clothes, sunscreen, sunglasses, and other items. ❗️The sunset on the mountain is also beautiful. ❗️Wear bright clothes for better photos.

This year, my favorite city for wandering has emerged as |||.

|||. Without Yu Hua's works, I might never have discovered this hidden gem of a coastal town in Zhejiang. With no crowds of tourists, it's perfect for a spontaneous weekend getaway! ·🚏Transportation🚘Self-driving: Approximately 1 hour drive from Hangzhou/Shanghai ·🚶‍♂️Travel Route: Haiyan Observation Deck »» Haiyan Windmill »» Shentang Ancient Town »» Shentang Granary »» Geometry Bookstore »» Nongdang Brewery »» Shenxian Lake ·✔️Must-Visit Attractions 1️⃣Observation Deck: Before heading out, be sure to check the weather forecast for clear skies, otherwise you'll be disappointed. It's recommended to arrive around 5:30 AM, as the sky will be orange-red for half an hour before sunrise, making it the best time for photos. Besides watching the sunrise, you can also go tidepooling after the tide recedes. 2️⃣Windmill: Located near the Observation Deck, the windmills are best viewed after sunrise, as they are most active in the morning. Lie down on the lawn and take photos, feeling like you've stepped into a Hayao Miyazaki anime. Girls are recommended to wear a white dress and straw hat for better photos. 3️⃣Shentang Ancient Town: This ancient town, described by Yu Hua, has a history of over 2,000 years. The streets along the river are lined with traditional Hui-style architecture. The town is small but relaxing. 4️⃣Victory Restaurant: This restaurant became famous due to Yu Hua's novel "Chronicles of a Blood Merchant". "A plate of stir-fried pork liver, two taels of yellow wine, warmed up" has become the standard order for diners here. Ingredients are limited daily, so be sure to queue early and get a number. 5️⃣Shentang Granary: Located near the ancient town, this granary features a wall of lyrics for photo ops. You can also visit the Geometry Bookstore to read Yu Hua's books and enjoy a cup of coffee. 6️⃣Nongdang Brewery: This century-old brewery is a designated intangible cultural heritage site. It boasts impressive layers of soy sauce jars and an underground wine cellar. You can even try white soy sauce ice cream here. 7️⃣Shenxian Lake (Haining): After visiting Shentang, you can head to Shenxian Lake in Haining. This newly developed urban island is actually a lake, not the sea. You might think you're at the beach, but it's actually a lake with cliffs and mountains covered in flowers. It's a secluded island perfect for picnics and camping. ·🏷Travel Tips: 🔸Always check the weather forecast before watching the sunrise! 🔸For sunrise viewing at the Observation Deck, park your car at the north gate of the Observation Deck. At the T-junction, there is a fork in the road to the west of the traffic light, next to the pedestrian crossing. This leads to the free parking lot. Do not park by the bridge, as police may issue fines even in the early morning!

Victory Hotel in Shendang Ancient Town.

I was on a business trip in Haiyan County, Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province. There is an industrial zone for heat transfer and washable labels. I stayed in Shendang Town at night. I passed by an antique area and stopped to take a look. It turned out that this was Shendang Ancient Town. Like other ancient towns in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, this place has also been commercialized. There are coffee bars, milk tea and snacks, but there are no souvenirs. The one that shows the characteristics of Jiaxing is the Wufangzhai Zongzi Shop, which can be visited in an hour. Passing by a Victory Hotel, it turned out to be featured in Mr. Yu Hua's "Xu Sanguan's Blood Seller's Notes". It was already closed when I arrived at the hotel, so I just went in to take a look. The lion's head braised pork liver with straw and meat and old wine was unknown. How about it.

Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai: A Fairy Tale Water Play Vacation with Kids!

Last year, we stayed at the Kaiyuan Senbo with the kids, and now they have opened a new hotel! This time, we went to the Nanbei Lake Kaiyuan Senbo, a one-stop destination for water play and vacation with kids. It's definitely the city's backyard garden, full of relaxation! We decisively took the kids for a trial stay over the weekend! ⭐ Vacation Highlights ⭐ It's less than a 2-hour drive from Shanghai, perfect for a relaxed weekend self-drive trip. Surrounded by panoramic views of mountains, sea, and lake, fully experiencing the baptism of nature and sunshine. A one-stop exclusive play experience to the max! 💙 Make sure to hit the water park while the weather is still good in August and September. There are tons of indoor and outdoor water play projects. Drifting, slides, wave pools, DJ performances... Even in winter, you can play indoors without any pressure. Spend a whole day soaking without any stress. The outdoor park area looks like Sanya in every photo. 🩷 Moms with little babies can head straight to the Children's Fantasy Island. A super large 2300 ㎡ indoor children's playground. The cartoon comic style design is full of childlike fun. Naughty castles, trampolines, supermarket kitchens, dressing rooms, human-powered go-karts, ocean pools. Lots of staff to play with the kids, freeing up parents' hands easily~ 💙 There's also the No. 1 Player Arcade with a cyber street full of technology. Big friends and little friends can experience 20+ interactive games here. 🏠 The rooms are well-equipped for babies, so you can move in with your kids without any hassle. The rooms include water boat houses, slide mushroom houses, and lakeside castle rooms, each with its own characteristics. The main lobby is also super artistic. You can see natural scenery as soon as you open the window. In winter, you can try the private hot springs at Xihe Hot Spring. They are all independent private hot springs. The fatigue of taking care of kids will be swept away here. 🥘 For dining, I personally recommend the Yanlai Xuan Chinese Restaurant. Not only is the food delicious, but it's also visually appealing, with a pure wooden architectural style that instantly transports you to Jiangnan. The flavors are diverse, so there's no pressure in choosing for both the elderly and children. PS: For friends with babies, I recommend the Senling Cave Restaurant. There's a dedicated dining area for babies, nutritious and healthy~ You can also watch the gorgeous Wa ethnic dance performance while eating, making the meal even more enjoyable. The experience is full, and the attention to detail is max! This is one of the reasons I love Senbo so much.

Travel around Wenzhou

Haiyan is indeed a very niche place. I chose Haiyan because the name is interesting, and combined with Yu Hua's buff, I thought of going for a stroll. Although it is in Zhejiang, it is a very niche name that I have never heard of. It is more suitable for people from surrounding cities who have nowhere else to go, but it is not necessary to travel from far away. Take the train to Jiaxing South Station, and then it takes about an hour by car to get to Haiyan. Windmill: After putting down my things, I took a taxi to see the windmill. It is a bit off the beaten path, but it is convenient to take a taxi there. Coming back was a bit difficult, so I paid extra to take a taxi back. It is worth visiting on a sunny day, and you can see the Ferris wheel when you turn your head. Although it was raining, it didn't feel like a waste. Geometry Bookstore: Smaller than expected, some of the floor stickers were worn out, but it is still worth a visit. Seasea: A shop for morning coffee and evening drinks. The location at the entrance is by the river, and it was very pleasant to sit on the chair and listen to the rain for a long time. I really like this shop. Haiyan Museum: Honestly, the sculpture at the entrance is the most beautiful part of the entire museum. I happened to see someone rehearsing Haiyan Opera, which was quite interesting. Haiyan Qiyuan: Just a few steps from the museum. It took a while to find the entrance. It is not a large scenic spot and not worth the ticket price. Shendang Granary: Both the bookstore and the coffee shop are worth a visit. Brewery: Went there to buy soy sauce ice cream, but later found out that it is sold everywhere in the ancient town. There is nothing much to see at the brewery itself. Shendang Ancient Town: Very, very small. Victory Hotel is right at the entrance, and I had dinner there. I sat in the corridor outside by the river, which was very pleasant. The clock shop has moved and is a bit far, so I suggest going there first before heading to Victory Hotel. The exterior of Xuanhutang Cafe is great for photos, but the drinks and desserts are not recommended, very average. The pastry shop was not making pastries the day I went, so I didn't get to buy any, which was a bit disappointing. I think it is a small county town very suitable for visiting on a sunny winter day.

Yu Hua's depiction of the ancient town of Shendang in Haiyan, sitting by the river to feel the charm of the ancient town

❤Recommended reason: Jiaxing's severely underrated ancient town, built around the lake, reflected in the water, like a beautiful ink painting, depicting a completely different, leisurely and artistic feeling, strolling through the picturesque ancient streets at will, with the poetic and smoky atmosphere described by Yu Hua. The world of 'Xu Sanguan', with its simple and rustic scenes like the fireworks of the human world. 🗓Tour route: 1. Xuanhu Hall Coffee 2. Victory Restaurant 3. Shendang Clock Shop 4. Shendang Distillery 5. Shendang Granary. The ancient streets and alleys are interconnected, and you can reach them by walking slowly. 📍Detailed address: Shendang Ancient Town, Haiyan County, Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province Note tips: The Shendang Granary not only retains the original granary but also has modern bookstores and cafes. The granary bookstore also has many works by Mr. Yu Hua. 'The city of literature in the book, the most beautiful Shendang'. You can go and have a look.

Escape Plan from Shanghai | Entering the Haiyan in Yu Hua's Book

🌈Day1: Beida Street Tourism and Culture Area - Chaoyin Pavilion - Haiyan Windmill 🌈Day2: Zhenfangzhai - Qiyuan Pancake - Qiyuan - Xuanhu Tang Coffee - Victory Restaurant (Old Store) - Haiyan Shendang Brewing Co., Ltd. - Concept Geometry Shendang Granary 💬Random Thoughts: Currently, the areas around Shanghai are still quite off the beaten path. It is recommended to drive there as public transportation is not particularly convenient. After visiting Jiaxing last time, I had a very good impression of it. There are few tourists here, and hotel prices do not surge during holidays. Everyone seems very relaxed, and the pace of life is slow. Shendang Ancient Town has a short old street, with ancient alleys paired with traditional architecture, making every casual photo full of charm. Many people come for the Victory Restaurant. I even urgently read 'Chronicle of a Blood Merchant'. Every time Xu Sanguan faced various difficulties and was at his wit's end, he would go to the hospital to sell blood to Li Xuetou. After selling blood, he would definitely go to Victory Restaurant to order a plate of stir-fried pig liver and two liang of yellow wine. Next to it, you can also check in at the Sunny Day Coffee and Dessert Bureau. The desserts are basically sold out by four or five o'clock, and I grabbed the last box. At Shendang Brewing Factory, you can visit the entire process of traditional soy sauce, white wine, and yellow wine brewing, and personally experience the charm of traditional culture. In the Shendang Wine Cellar, there is even wine sealed by Yu Hua. After the tour, buy a soy sauce ice cream at the factory's exhibition hall. According to the introduction, when Mr. Yu Hua came to visit at the end of October last year, he prepared a script to have Yu Hua write it by hand to promote the factory. But Yu Hua said, 'This won't do. I'll just write: Shendang Yellow Wine, don't know how it ferments, don't know how it's brewed, just know it's delicious.' Inexplicably cute, a lazy and relaxed old man with a sweet tooth hhh Shendang Granary, once a grain warehouse, has been transformed into a popular check-in spot, combining a creative bookstore, coffee factory, banquet center, and other diverse businesses, making it particularly suitable for photography. These attractions are very close to each other, and every parking lot is free. However, walking around, stopping, eating, and shopping for an afternoon is enough time.
