## Itinerary
### Day 1 (depart from Hangzhou, arrive at 13:30)
- **Route planning**: Wuxi Station → Hotel (put down your luggage, take a short break, get ready to start the tour) → Sanyang Square (Cha Yan Yue Se) → Chong'an Temple → Xiaolou Lane → Xuntang Ancient Town → Lihu Light 100-meter High Spray (watch the sunset) → Nanchang Street Pedestrian Street (night tour) → Qingming Bridge Ancient Canal (night tour) → Lakeside Commercial Food Street (eat supper) → Hotel
- **Attractions introduction**:
1. **Sanyang Plaza**: The Cha Yan Yue Se here is extremely popular, and there are so many people lining up. We had lunch nearby first and waited for a while before trying this internet-famous drink. While waiting, you can also feel the lively atmosphere around the square, watching people coming and going, as if you can touch the pulse of the city.
2. **Chong'an Temple**: Be sure to check in at the camera position of classmates from ancient times to the present. Standing there and taking pictures, it seems as if you can travel through time and space. There is also a snack pedestrian street next to it, with a wide variety of delicious food that will make you salivate. You can taste the local specialties while feeling the bustling atmosphere of this city.
3. **Xiaolou Lane**: Different from bustling places, this place is less crowded and quiet, like a piece of pure land in the city. Walk slowly along the alley and you will see a temple of the God of Wealth at the end. You may want to go in and make a wish, which may bring some good luck to your journey.
4. **Xuntang Ancient Town**: This is a small ancient town in the south of the Yangtze River with a unique charm. The ancient town has quaint architectural style and the river flows gently. Taking photos here is simply amazing! Every photo can make you feel the gentleness and tranquility of the Jiangnan water town.
5. **Lihu Light - 100-meter High Spray**: This is a great place to watch the sunset! When the afterglow of the setting sun shines on the lake, the waves sparkle and the beauty is intoxicating. If you come in winter, you can also see flocks of seagulls flying over the lake. They sometimes fly high and sometimes dive, as if they are playing with you, adding a different kind of fun to your journey.
6. **Nanchang Street Pedestrian Street**: There are many snacks and delicacies here, making it a paradise for foodies. I bought a bottle of Cha Yan Yue Se here, drank the milk tea while walking around the shops on the street, and felt the lively atmosphere at night. There are also some very unique shops here where you can slowly pick out some souvenirs to keep as beautiful memories of this trip.
7. **Qingming Bridge Ancient Canal**: It is adjacent to Nanchang Street and has a magnificent night view. Strolling along the canal, admiring the lights and ancient buildings on both sides, it seems as if you can hear the voice of history. The breeze blows, bringing a hint of coolness, making people feel relaxed and happy.
8. **Hubin Commercial Food Street**: Located near the Qingming Bridge, it gathers a variety of Wuxi local snacks. We went to eat Xuyi lobster
🦞, the thirteen spices and garlic flavors are must-order. The shrimp meat is tender and juicy, with a rich flavor. It's really delicious! In addition, there is a barbecue
🍖, oysters
🦪, home-cooked dishes, small seafood, etc. There are also large and small private rooms on the second floor, which are very suitable for family and friends to dine together. Everyone sits together, enjoying delicious food and sharing the fun of the day's trip. This is the meaning of travel.
### the next day
- **Route planning**: Hotel → Nanchan Temple → Nanchan Temple Pedestrian Street → Huishan Ancient Town (Jichang Garden, Xihui Park) → Wuxi Station
- **Attractions introduction**:
1. **Nanchan Temple**: Opening hours are 7:00 - 16:45. Although the temple is not big, it has a unique and peaceful atmosphere. There is a vegetarian restaurant inside. If you are interested in vegetarian food, you can try it and experience the vegetarian culture in the temple.
2. **Nanchan Temple Pedestrian Street**: I bought Cha Yan Yue Se here
🧋, and also ate the delicious food of Xishengyuan. Xishengyuan’s wontons, braised pork ribs and steamed dumplings are all very famous. The wontons have thin skin, large fillings and delicious soup; the braised pork ribs are bright red in color and tender in texture; the steamed dumplings have thin skin, high juice and sweet taste. Each one is very memorable.
3. **Huishan Ancient Town**: You can enter without a ticket. There are a wide variety of snacks inside, such as highland barley baked buns, Xinwanxin, plum blossom cakes, etc. Each one is worth a try. Jichang Garden and Xihui Park are inside the ancient town and tickets are required. These two scenic spots are large in area and take a lot of time to visit, so you should arrange your time reasonably and slowly enjoy the beautiful scenery.
## Food Recommendations
In addition to the delicacies mentioned above, Wuxi has many other delicious foods worth trying. For example, the Xuyi lobster has chewy and elastic meat with a rich flavor; the noodles at Xin Wanxin Silver Thread Noodle House are as thin as hair and have a smooth taste; the drinks at Cha Yan Yue Se are both beautiful and delicious; the magnolia cake at Mao Hua Gourmet is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the hot and sour soup has a unique flavor; the fried wontons, braised pork ribs and dumplings at Xishengyuan are rave-worthy; the Lao Fatou plum blossom cake is soft, glutinous and sweet; the Cao Zhang chicken pancake is crispy and delicious; and the highland barley baked bun has a faint aroma of highland barley. Each one can immerse your taste buds in the food world of Wuxi.
## Tips
- Free storage at the customer service center at the subway station
🛅Luggage, so you can travel light when you travel without worrying about luggage issues.
- Cha Yan Yue Se is very popular in shopping malls and subway stations, and you usually have to wait in line for a long time. If you don’t want to waste too much time queuing, there will be fewer people at the Nanchang Street and Nanchan Temple stores, so you can choose to buy at these two places.
I hope this guide can help you spend a pleasant two days and one night in Kushi! Let’s start your trip to Wuxi!
