May is the perfect time to travel, with the spring waning and the summer heat not yet arrived, bringing a sense of leisure. Coupled with the holidays, if you don't want to be crammed with crowds, you can find a less popular city nearby for a private travel experience. Zhangjiagang, located on the southern bank of the lower Yangtze River, is less than a two-hour drive from Shanghai. In Zhangjiagang, you can head out leisurely and wander at a relaxed pace! More importantly, there aren't too many people during the holidays! Today, I'll recommend a few attractions in Zhangjiagang for you to visit, so remember to save this list! 🌹【Shangang Village】: The coffee here is fragrant with flowers~ Looking at these lovely flower fields, don't you feel your dopamine levels rising? This time, I encountered the Flower Space Cafe amidst the floral sea, true to its name, a coffee shop nestled among the flowers. Enjoy the view of the flower sea while sipping afternoon tea, indulging in a moment soaked in floral fragrance. 🌊【Zhangjiagang Bay】: The new landmark of the harbor city I've seen this metallic fish basket-shaped structure countless times, and finally, I have the chance to get up close and personal with it~ Zhangjiagang Bay is the last bay where the Yangtze River flows into the sea. The mighty Yangtze rushes into the ocean, creating a uniquely beautiful riverscape. PS: There are many attractions inside, so it's recommended to take the shuttle bus for convenience, and you can spend the whole day here. 🏠【Ming and Qing Garden】: Not far from Zhangjiagang Bay, accompanied by the river, there is a magnificent group of Hui-style architecture—Ming and Qing Garden. Hidden among the woods and surrounded by green waters, Ming and Qing Garden has a history of hundreds of years. Ancient buildings, wood carvings, brick carvings, and stone inscriptions from the Ming and Qing dynasties have been preserved and passed down to this day. People who love to drink might have heard of Shazhou Youhuang, a century-old famous brand and a local brand of Zhangjiagang. 🍷【Zhangjiagang Shazhou Youhuang Wine Culture Park】: Centered around Suzhou-style yellow wine culture, the entire culture park features a library, amusement park, yellow wine town, aged wine cellar, museum, and more, offering a full day's worth of exploration. The culture park has no admission fee, but to enter the museum, wine cellar, and other places for tours and fun, you need to purchase tickets. The attractions inside are definitely worth the ticket price. For example, at the Shazhou Youhuang Museum, not only can you learn about Chinese wine culture, but you can also see various wine vessels, broadening your knowledge. At the same time, the dreamy space created with mirrors and bead curtains is perfect for taking amazing photos. The aged wine cellar and underground wine cellar, with tens of thousands of wine jars on display, are quite spectacular, and the strong aroma of wine gets you tipsy before you even drink. In the handcraft brewing workshop, you can also learn about the brewing process of Shazhou Youhuang, where the rigorous and systematic procedure is eye-opening. In the yellow wine town, you can taste various delicious foods, such as drag-stove cakes, yellow wine milk tea, yellow wine coffee, and more, all of which are not to be missed~ No. 300, Chengdong Road, Houcang Sub-district, Zhangjiagang City Accommodation recommendation: Huazhu.Qixi Homestay The landlady is very nice~~~ The rooms are large.
