2025 Xuyi Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

Huai’An is widely known as the crayfish capital in China and this museum encloses a detailed summary about crayfish & its culture around it. You can also get an idea about the wide variety of recipes made with crayfish, crayfish making competitions and the awards & certifications around here. The outer architecture & the surrounding is influenced around crayfish farming. The area is pretty isolated and very less populated so you can enjoy & get educated at the same time at peace. #crayfish #celebratewithtrip #mytripvlog #summervacation #travel #huaian #awesomepic #travel #urbanexplorer #tripblazers

Baxianshan: Derived from the legend that the Eight Immortals cultivated here. Li Tieguai, Han Zhongli, Zhang Guolao, Lan Caihe, He Xiangu, Lu Dongbin, Han Xiangzi, and Cao Guojiu traveled here and saw the beautiful mountains and clear water, so they built eight platforms for cultivation. Local people saw the rising immortal energy and came to burn incense and worship, praying for blessings. The Eight Immortals punished evil and promoted good, and cured diseases and eliminated disasters. The people were grateful and named the mountain Baxianshan, and the platform Baxiantai.

|The "hometown" of crayfish. As the birthplace of Huaiyang cuisine, Huai'an naturally has a variety of special foods. However, people nowadays prefer a night market snack - Huai'an lobster, or more specifically Xuyi lobster and Jinhu lobster. 🌟Xuyi lobster is a local specialty. It has a bright red body color, tender meat, and plump and full flesh. If you come here and don’t eat crayfish, it’s like going to a treasure mountain but returning empty-handed. 🌟In addition to Xuyi lobsters, Huai'an also has Jinhu County, where crayfish are also a local specialty. It is close to Baima Lake, Baoying Lake and Gaoyou Lake. The excellent water quality makes the crayfish here tender and delicious🉑️ 📅Recommended check-in places: ✅Xia Shen Lobster Headquarters The birthplace of thirteen-spice crayfish, the luxurious lobster set meal at Yu's Catering Xia Shen Lobster Headquarters is definitely not to be missed! The crayfish are super big, carefully selected and served, you can choose your own flavor, six or eight kinds, two people hold one person and beat the gongs and drums to serve the dishes, it's super domineering🙈 🌈The spicy and garlic flavors are the best😋 📍Address: Building 4, Longcheng Xintiandi, No. 8 Huaihe Mingzhu Road, Xucheng Town, Xuyi County - ✅Lobster Plaza The local lobster street is very famous, and the taste of the roadside stalls is also very authentic~ The price is fair and affordable, suitable for travel check-ins, and you can make an appointment with three or five friends to realize lobster freedom💕 ✅Huaxia Hotel The lobster in the hotel tastes very authentic, delicious and chewy, one plate is not enough! 📍Address: Yuanlin Road, Jinhu County, Huai'an City

The breakfast even surpassed the DoubleTree by Hilton Yancheng in northern Jiangsu. The noodle bar is rich, in addition to local specialties, shrimp dumplings are also provided. In addition to coffee and soy milk, there are three kinds of hot drinks made from five grains. There are not many hot dishes in Chinese food, but there are many good ones. Western desserts include egg tarts, waffles, Swiss rolls, mousse, chicken nuggets, etc. The replenishment is also timely. Except for the slightly weak fruit, the overall quality exceeds that of some five-star hotels. Another advantage is that the lobby book bar is very good. After checking out, you can continue to rest here. There is an Apple computer and a regular computer, which can meet simple business needs, and there is no usage fee. Other public area facilities include a self-service laundry room, gym, and a robot to deliver takeout to the floor, which is very convenient. Hampton by Hilton naturally does not have a swimming pool, and the newly opened New Century Grand Hotel does not have one either, so there is still no standard luxury hotel with a swimming pool in the county. The room facilities are standard, the area is acceptable, the hardware is relatively new, there is no bathtub (suites have), no small refrigerator, the highest floor is 12 floors, and some rooms have an outdoor view of Duliang Pavilion. During the Chinese New Year, you can see fireworks set off by others at night. The soundproofing is average, and being integrated with the mall is a double-edged sword. Enjoy the extremely convenient location, and you can also enjoy listening to the sound of the stall downstairs receiving money in the room. If you want to be quieter, you can choose New Century, which is opposite the county government, but it is not as lively as here. If you want to be quieter, stay away from the business district and the Jinling Hotel in Tianquan Lake in the county. These are the three best hotels in Xuyi. Hampton by Hilton naturally belongs to the Hilton system, but this one does not have a piggy treatment. To get the treatment, you have to book on the official website. It costs about 400 even during the Chinese New Year, which is not cheap. But I got the contract price from my cousin, and he arranged everything. By the way, he was promoted again last year, unlike me who still lay flat for a year, and this year will still be the same.

When it comes to Xuyi, people often think of crayfish. As a travel destination, it is really a niche. When introducing Huai'an attractions before, I mentioned Xuyi Xiangshan National Mine Park. This time, I found a more niche redwood forest wetland in Xuyi. As the dividing line between the north and the south, Huai'an, south of the Huai River, is probably the first place to be dyed by autumn colors. The best season for Tianquan Lake starts in mid-November, and in December, the autumn leaves slowly wither. Due to its distance from the city, Tianquan Lake is more suitable for self-driving. In addition to viewing the redwood forest along the boardwalk, you can also take a boat deep into the lake to look for traces of wild animals. Resort ticket 🎫: Free

The First Mountain National Forest Park is located in the county urban area, formerly known as Nanshan. It is embraced by Cuiping Peak on the left, Fengpoling on the right, Qingfeng Mountain on the north, and facing the Changhuai River, surrounded by mountains, with one peak standing out. Mi Fu, a painter and calligrapher of the Northern Song Dynasty, was appointed as the county magistrate of Lianshui. When he traveled south from the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, Bianjing (now Kaifeng), along the Bian River and entered the Huai River, he suddenly saw the unique and beautiful Nanshan, which inspired him to write a poem 'The First Mountain Reminiscing the Past': 'The wind and dust of Jingluo return a thousand miles, the bow of the ship comes out of the Bian River between the green screens. Don't talk about Heng and Huo hitting the stars, it is the first mountain in the southeast', and inscribed the three vigorous characters of 'The First Mountain'. Since then, Nanshan has been renamed 'The First Mountain'. The First Mountain Cliff has left 139 inscriptions by famous people such as Su Shi, with all styles of calligraphy, which are very precious. In 2010, it was rated as a national AAAA level scenic spot, and in 2013, it was promoted to a national cultural relics protection unit and a national key cultural relics protection unit.
