|It is said to be Altay in Suzhou. Yuyang Mountain, surrounded by lakes on three sides, is a great place to enjoy the scenery of Taihu Lake. I was forced to postpone my trip but couldn’t resist the beautiful pictures on the Internet, so I went into the mountain with my bag and camera. There were not many people on the mountain and the scenery was great. I encountered a group of Samoyeds many times along the way, it was really wonderful! On the road, I also met a girl who came from Shanghai alone. We took some nice photos of each other. It turns out that you can really meet people with the same feelings on the road. Navigate to Suzhou Bank Resort Branch P free The Bat Line is 11 km long. Time for daydreaming and taking a walk: 4h~4.5h Difficulty taste Newbie-friendly Pet friendly Family friendly Intimate tips 1. If you go in the afternoon, it is recommended to start at around 1 o'clock, including clockwise, because it takes about 3 and a half hours to walk clockwise to the road along the lake. You can watch the sunset around 4 to 4:30, which is super beautiful when the weather is good. 2. It is not difficult and the energy consumption is not high. If the weather is cold, it is enough to bring two bottles of water. 3. Pay attention to adding clothes in time. When the temperature is low, it is easy to catch a cold if you sweat and then catch a cold. 4. There is only a toilet in Yuyang Pavilion in the mountain, so you should go to the toilet before going up the mountain. 5. The Bat Line needs to pass through the Yuyangshan Tunnel section, please pay attention to safety About taking photos • The pine forest trail in the mountains is really nice for taking photos in the afternoon • There is a lawn on the top of the mountain, and when visibility is high, you can overlook Taihu Lake • The observation deck is also a great photo spot • The road around the lake is great for taking photos, and you can also camp there • There is a large lawn between the Taihu Lake Highway and the Yuyangshan Tunnel. Many people camped there and took great photos. I would like to thank the friends I met on the road and the "male celebrities" who appeared in the photos. No trace in the mountains, no open flames allowed

Yuyangshan faces the lake and has been a great place to see the beauty of Taihu Lake since ancient times. After re-engineering in 2015, the park has added 30,000 square meters of lawns and more than 800 trees. There is a battery car at the gate of the scenic spot, and there is a cable car in the scenic area. If you don't want to go, you can take the battery car directly to Yuyang Pavilion, where you can overlook the entire Taihu Lake scenery. There is a tea room next to Yuyang Pavilion. The interior is simple and elegant. If you are tired, you can sit here and have a cup of tea. The tea room has a wide view. When the weather is fine and the visibility is high, it is very suitable for leisurely days. The spring of each year is the most beautiful season in Yuyangshan Taoyuan. I was worried that the flowers would not be opened early. Who knows that Wu Zhongxing can see all kinds of flowers every day. The scenery around Taoyuan is beautiful, picturesque and dreamlike. The pink-white peach blossoms are brightly flanked by branches, and the petals of the wind are falling, like flying butterflies, like flying snow, beautiful and lingering.
