[Core experience in-depth recommendation] 1️⃣ The starting point of the Three Su Temple to tour the thousand-year cultural heritage. Front hall: statues of the three Su brothers, feel the "three poets from one family" Qixian Hall: the ancestral hall of the Su family, dedicated to Su Xu (Su Shi's grandfather) Laifengxuan: where Su Shi studied as a teenager, and the place of inspiration for "When will the bright moon be there" Wooden Rockery Hall: the source of Su Xun's "Wooden Rockery Notes", a symbol of tenacity Danli Ancient Well: the ancient well of the Su family. Legend has it that when Su Shi was born, red lychees bloomed in the well. The Three Su Temple was first built in the Northern Song Dynasty and the existing one was rebuilt in the Qing Dynasty. It is the best-preserved Su family ancestral hall in China. 2️⃣ Experience being a "literati" for a day at a Song-style gathering. At the Three Su Temple Cultural Experience Hall, personally participate in three daily activities of Song Dynasty literati: Project Content Gains Calligraphy copying Copy an excerpt from Su Shi's "Cold Food Postscript" Feel the unrestrained style of the "stone-pressed toad" font Song-style tea-making Learn the "Seven-Soup Tea-making Method" to make foam Experience the same tea art as "Dream of the Red Chamber" Rubbing skills Copy the inscriptions of Su Shi's poems and lyrics Take away the exclusive "Dongpo Calligraphy" Shooting suggestions: Wear Hanfu and take close-ups when the light and shadow are soft, which is very literary! 3️⃣ Dongpo Family Banquet: The Taste of a Literary Master on Your Tongue Recommended restaurant: Meizhou Dongpo Restaurant (Meishan Branch) or Suci Old Flavor Must-Order Dishes: Dongpo Elbow: Fatty but not greasy, slow-cooked over low heat, inspired by Su Shi's "Poem on Eating Pork" Longan Pastry: shaped like longan, crispy, sweet and glutinous, a dim sum for Su's guests Meishan Pickles: Su Dongpo said, "If I don't eat for three days, my taste will be bland," an intangible cultural heritage Dongpo Tofu: light and elegant, a representative of literati vegetarianism 4️⃣ Ancient-style Photography, capture the "literati temperament" of blockbusters Best time: before 9:00 in the morning or after 17:30 in the evening (soft light) Must-Shoot Scenes: Red Wall Bamboo Shadow: Holding a round fan, looking back sideways Ancient Well Danli: Low-angle shot of the well platform reflection Stele Forest Corridor: Holding a rice paper rubbing, in a contemplative state Night Light Lantern: Photographing the red wall + warm light lanterns, full of artistic conception [Travel Tips] Best Seasons: March–May (warm spring, blooming flowers), September–November (brisk autumn). Clothing Tips: Wear light clothing during the day, and layer a T-shirt under your Hanfu. Avoid dark clothing during the tea-making/calligraphy experience (to prevent ink stains). Tips: Ask the Hanfu rental staff about the return time (usually 4 hours). Cultural experiences require advance reservations (book via the "Three Su Temple" official account). Do not touch the ancient stele; the rubbing experience will be guided by staff. Family-Friendly: Children can participate in rubbings and calligraphy, creating a fun and educational experience. The Three Su Temple's expansive gardens are perfect for strolls and guided tours. In short: A day at the Three Su Temple is no longer just a tourist; you've stepped into a study thousands of years ago, copying the "Cold Food Postscript," brewing tea while listening to the wind sing. Beneath the red lychee trees, you almost hear Su Dongpo's smiling voice as he said, "The best things in life are simple joys." This is the warmth of culture. This is the poetic beauty of Meishan.

【Must-Visit Attractions · A Perfect Blend of Culture and Nature】 1. Sansu Shrine: The absolute highlight of the itinerary. This is the former residence of Su Xun, Su Shi, and Su Zhe, surrounded by red walls and green waters, with towering ancient trees and elegant pavilions and towers.

Take the cable car to the summit, wander through the original fir forest, encounter Tibetan macaques and red pandas, overlook the magnificent sea of clouds, and experience the grandeur of "standing atop Wawu Mountain, overlooking all smaller peaks." 3. Liujiang Ancient Town: Not just "Liujiang," but "Misty Rain Liujiang." The ancient town nestles by the mountains and water, marked by ancient banyan trees and stilted buildings.

It makes a great souvenir. · Bowl of Lamb Soup: The locals’ breakfast favorite. The steaming hot lamb soup is fresh and flavorful; pour it over rice for a heartwarming and stomach-warming meal. When night falls, don’t forget to visit Meishan Dongpo Water Street (Great Song Never Sleeps City), where dazzling lights, pavilions, and waterside terraces make you feel instantly transported to the bustling night market of the Song Dynasty. Perfect for photos, food, and fun, offering an excellent experience. 【Itinerary Suggestions】 · One-Day Cultural Tour: Deeply explore Sansu Shrine in the morning, then stroll through Dongpo Wetland Park or head to Water Street to feel the Song Dynasty charm in the afternoon. · Two-Day In-Depth Tour: · Day 1: Morning at Sansu Shrine, afternoon visit to Liujiang Ancient Town, overnight in Liujiang to enjoy the ancient town’s night scenery. · Day 2: Head to Wawu Mountain and spend the whole day embracing nature and breathing fresh air. 【Transportation Tips】 Meishan is conveniently accessible.
