Address:
Lianghu Road
Recommended sightseeing time:
2-3 hours
I stayed in Wuxi for two days and really didn't want to go home
Wuxi seems like a huge energy field...
I would like to call it the INFP city!
-
Day1: Huishan Ancient Town - Jichang Garden - Xihui Park - Nanchang Street (Night View)
Day2: Nanchan Temple - coffee walk - Light of Li Lake (Sunset)
·
🏨Accommodation recommendation:
Since I was traveling alone, I chose the ROCASE apartment hotel opposite Nanchang Street, which really has a high cost performance! A one-bedroom suite is also very suitable for couples or families with children, with a gym and a swimming pool, and breakfast is self-service. The restaurant also offers ordering service, and honestly, the food feels even better than eating outside~ The most important thing is that it's really convenient
-
🍃Attraction recommendation:
✔️Huishan Ancient Town: A ticket-free scenic area, it's very comfortable to walk around and eat, and after the rain, the mist in the mountains is so spiritual!
✔️Jichang Garden: The most worthwhile place! It feels like a huge energy field! And it really heals you as much as any other garden
✔️Nanchang Street: You can come to take night photos, of course, it also feels very good during the day, with quite a few coffee shops
✔️Nanchan Temple: I found that the same type of prayer beads as in Yonghe Temple is only 1/3 of the price! It's really a bit outrageous, and it's so beautiful to walk on the bridge and take photos~
✔️Light of Li Lake: The Light of Li Lake is so beautiful before sunset! Worthy of being called the little Sanya of Wuxi! It's also very comfortable to ride a bike here~

Lihu Lake Wuxi, China 无锡, 中国
Welcome to Lihu Lake in Wuxi, Jiangsu, China. It is without a doubt one of the most beautiful pedestrian slake areas in the country.
The Lihu Scenic Lake area is extremely walkable and connected by roads and or by pathway through and around the large area. Often, one can see the boats peddling around on the water as people lag and giggle. As you walk around the lake you will also see fisherman working on their next catch to sell or cook.
Be sure to take a walk around the lake area and see the sunrise and/or sunset because the look of the water waving around with the sun rising or setting in the background is rather relaxing.
Definitely worth a visit. Strong recommendation.

Attractions:
1. Watch the red-billed gulls at the light of Lihu Lake [Cute][Cute]
(Navigate to the 100-meter high spray and walk a few steps) We arrived at around 9 o'clock in the morning. The red-billed gulls were basically flying in the middle. Then we took a small boat. The boat was for 4 people (including children, 120 yuan per boat) and 6 people. I didn't ask the price [Chin][Chin] We went quite early, and there was no time limit. There may be a time limit later. After we played for several rounds, there was already a long queue when we came up to cruise the lake and watch the seagulls.
2. Xihui Park (cable car ride) [Yeah][Yeah]
The entrance fee to the park is now 5/person. I heard from the aunt at the stall that it was 10/person before.
Take the cable car (children under 1 meter are free, 1-1.5m are half price, round trip seems to be 30). The round trip adult ticket is 60/person.
Once you sit on it, no matter whether you have bought a return ticket or not, you have to get off and queue up again for the return trip. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :

Free seagull feeding at Bogong Island, Wuxi
👉 Bogong Island/Lihu Light
📍 Navigation: Bogong Island Ground Parking Lot (you can see the Bogong Island stone sign at a glance)
➡️ You can walk to the left at the stone entrance and walk along the lake. The scenery is beautiful, and you can see seagulls. It's a great place to take a leisurely stroll.
➡️ Keep walking forward, and you can reach Lihu Light along the lake, where there is a viewing platform for watching the sunset fountain.
📝 Tips:
✔️ Seagulls are easily fed in the afternoon, so it is recommended to go in the morning.
✔️ Bring more bread, but not too hard.
✔️ There are many people on weekends, so try to go on weekdays.
✔️ The wind on the lake is strong, so keep warm.
✔️ There are more seagulls from mid-to-late November to mid-to-late February of the following year. You can usually see them from sunrise to one hour before sunset.

In Wuxi, see the black-headed gulls at Lihu Light
Winter romance is half black-headed gulls
Black-headed gulls in various forms
Hovering in the air
Go see each one is cute
The sunset is even more beautiful
There are many places to see black-headed gulls
You can see the 100-meter-high spray of Lihu Light
More black-headed gulls
Hovering beside the boat
It's beautiful at the stern at sunset
Take a picture of the opposite boat passing by,
The scene of black-headed gulls hovering nearby is even more beautiful
In addition to black-headed gulls,
There are also beautiful metasequoia in this season,
Basically, they are all red and very beautiful
The disadvantage is that there are too many people,
You have to choose a good location for portraits
Choose a good angle
To take portraits, you have to avoid peak periods
It takes about a day
Lihu Light 100-meter-high spray
If you only look at black-headed gulls,
Here is also a very good small bread, just throw it away,
The black-headed gulls will fly over
You can also look more carefully at the shape and appearance
After a lot, it feels like flying in groups,
I dare not raise my head too high
Take a single photo of a black-headed gull,
Portraits are still pretty good
The sunset is also very beautiful,
There is a feeling of "autumn water and the sky are the same color"
If you encounter a weekend high spray, it will be even more beautiful
If you just want to see black-headed gulls,
In fact, Lihu is enough,
No tickets are required
If you put your heart into everything, you will gain something

Who hasn't been to Wuxi to see the free seagulls?
Every winter, a group of visitors from afar arrives at Taihu Lake. They travel thousands of miles from Siberia, overcoming hardships, and finally reach this warm water. These lively black-headed gulls are like winter elves 🧚♂️, adding a touch of vitality to the bleak season.
📍 Check-in location: Lihu Light
🎫 Ticket information: No reservation required, free entry 🆓
🕙 Opening hours: Open all day
🚗 Self-driving: We recommend the Shuijingfang Ground Parking Lot, with a fee of CNY 8/4 hours
🐦 Feeding interaction:
- Seagulls have a varied diet, and small dried fish is one of their favorite foods. Please prepare a proper amount of food to avoid waste.
- Boldly stretch out your arm and try to let the seagulls snatch food from your hand. Feel the wonder of close contact with nature, but please note that the number of brave seagulls is limited, so you need to be patient.
- To reduce pollution to the lake environment, try to throw food into the air and let the seagulls catch it in the air.
Tips: It's best to go in the morning when the seagulls are more approachable.

The Wuxi Lake Loop Double-decker Bus is next level!
If you're bored and don't know where to take your kids, head to Wuxi and take a ride on the double-decker bus around the lake!
🚉Transportation Guide:
Drive to Meiyuan Bus Terminal, where there is a large parking lot. After parking, walk a little further to the bus stop for the lake loop bus.
[Lake Loop Bus Guide]
1. Buy your ticket in advance on the "Zizaiqu Wuxi" WeChat account and select the Lihu Sightseeing Line.
2. Tickets are available for CNY 20, CNY 68 (including Chinese tea and snacks), and CNY 58 (including a snack package). The CNY 58 and CNY 68 tickets allow you to reserve the best seats in the first row on the second floor.
3. Scenic views along the way. The bus passes through MixC and Lihu Light. The Lihu Light fountain only runs twice a day, and we were lucky enough to catch it.
4. The whole ride takes about 40-50 minutes, which is a great way to pass the time with kids.
After the bus ride, we went to Che Coffee to watch the sunset.
This is a great place to watch the sunset, but the road is narrow and there is no parking lot, so you have to park on the side of the road.
There are many motorcyclists here.
The coffee shop has a swing, and there is a restaurant next door that is similar to a farmhouse.

I prefer this "Little Sanya" in Wuxi to Turtle Head Isle.
A few years ago, Wuxi built this place on the shore of Li Lake, which is proudly called "Little Sanya" by the locals. Although it is not large, it really has a bit of the flavor of Little Sanya with the help of the large area of water in Li Lake. Therefore, there are many tourists taking photos here. There are also many families setting up tents on the lawn next to it, enjoying their leisure time. The scene is really warm.
🎈There are various large stones by the lake. Children climb up and down on them and are very happy. Looking at their innocent smiles, I feel that the troubles in life have disappeared instantly.
🚗The transportation here is also very convenient. If you don't drive, you can also take a bus directly. Whether you drive or take public transportation, you can easily reach this beautiful place.

Jiangsu Wuxi Lihu Lake Light - Southern Jiangsu Xiaosanya.
The Lihu Lake Light, commonly known as "Wuxi Xiaosanya", is said to have been named after Fan Li, who once lived in seclusion here.
Grass, breeze, palm trees, coconut trees, lake water, and sunset form a beautiful landscape.
Several rows of coconut trees 🌴 are located by the lake, and the breeze is coming, giving a feeling of being in Sanya.
Of course, there is the 100-meter-high spray of Lihu Lake Light. Under the sunset, you can pose and take a few photos, which are absolutely beautiful!
Stroll around and enjoy this leisurely time.
🧭 Navigation location: Lihu Lake Light
💸 Free, you can park on the roadside.
⏰ Sunset time: around 18:00, it is recommended to arrive 20 minutes in advance

It's hard to park around here, you can park in a nearby parking lot and walk there.
2 Guanshe Villa: The viewing angle is slightly inferior to Jinyuan Road, but it has convenient transportation and the parking lot is close to the viewing point.
Light of Lihu Lake: The view is wide and facing the fireworks. There is a viewing platform, but it is far from the fireworks. It is suitable for photography enthusiasts with professional equipment.
4 Taihu Star Ferris Wheel: Suitable for young couples! Get on the Ferris wheel at the exact time of the fireworks (around 8:20) and watch the fireworks bloom in the air without blind spots🎉
5 Mixc: The view is somewhat blocked and the distance from the fireworks is relatively far. It is suitable for friends who are not so eager to watch the fireworks. You can also eat and go shopping after watching.

How beautiful is the spring in Wuxi | Coffee by the Li Lake
🌸 The spring of Li Lake's Light in Wuxi is full of flowers and beauty. Experience it by the Li Lake.
☕️ Outside the tent, under the late cherry blossoms, have a cup of coffee, enjoy an afternoon tea, and let the gentle breeze of Tai Lake caress your face~~
🎫 Free

I thought Suzhou was beautiful enough until I went to
Strongly recommend that those visiting Suzhou
Take a day off to go to Wuxi
It's really a hidden gem...
1️⃣ Hui Shan Ancient Town
It's so chill, you can find a riverside teahouse to have a cup of tea and sit quietly for an afternoon
2️⃣ Li Lake's Light
The most beautiful place to watch the sunset in Wuxi, with good weather you might encounter a huge 'salted egg yolk' sunset, it's so beautiful 😭
3️⃣ Dangkou Ancient Town
A severely underrated little town in the south of the Yangtze River, with free admission, small bridges and flowing water, truly the essence of the south
4️⃣ Lingshan Grand Buddha
A must-visit sacred place, as you wish
5️⃣ Nan Chang Street
Equivalent to Suzhou's Shantang Street, very crowded, with beautiful night scenes
6️⃣ Turtle Head Isle
Turtle Head Isle is beautiful even without cherry blossoms, with lake and mountain views, a feast for the eyes

's not that Turtle Head Isle isn't worth visiting, but rather that the free seagulls offer better value for money
Recently, Wuxi has been extraordinarily lively🎉, with crowds flocking to Turtle Head Isle to see the black-headed gulls. But now, the Light of Li Lake is also very much worth everyone's affection😍—fewer people, beautiful scenery, and you can also watch the black-headed gulls for free!
Yesterday, Xiao Nan also took a trip to the Light of Li Lake and personally experienced the black-headed gulls🕊 here. Now, let me share some tips with you🎯.
📍Location: East Gate of the Light of Li Lake or Shuijingfang
🚇Transport: The nearest subway station is the Sports Center Station on Line 4, 1.9 kilometers away from the destination🛣. Nearby there are buses 53, 106, 67, 36, etc., or you can take a taxi🚗.
⏰Viewing time: 10:00-15:00 is when there are more black-headed gulls, and going in the morning allows for more feeding time
🐦Feeding: There is no place in the Light of Li Lake scenic area that specifically sells food, so it's recommended to bring some bread🥯
The Light of Li Lake is a great place for a family outing🎪, where you can plan to spend half a day👨👩👧👦. In addition to watching Siberian black-headed gulls, you can also take a walk around the lake🚶♂️ and enjoy the natural scenery. The lakeside is windy, so remember to keep warm~
