Where to go for the National Day! In the mansion of the Qing Dynasty's wealthy businessman, the scenery is beautiful and there are few people
Do you know that in the bustling city of Ningbo, there is such a mansion of the Ming and Qing Dynasties' wealthy businessmen, a small popular Jiangnan secret?
Ming and Qing ancient lanes, blue bricks and black tiles, ancestral halls and mansions, shaking boats...
Entering the mansion, the corridors and pavilions in front of you are solemn and solemn, feeling the style of the past~
Escaping the impetuousness of the city, we set off from Shanghai for more than 3 hours by car and came here again, with beautiful scenery and few people, and lived a slow life for two days!
This time we still stayed in the "Seventeen Rooms Kaiyuan Guantang", the hotel and the scenic area (Zheng's Seventeen Rooms) are combined into one, all of which are preserved are the Ming and Qing Chinese courtyard buildings, quiet and leisurely, soaking for a whole day will not be boring!
And all the facilities are very suitable for bringing children to play, full of elegant holiday feeling!
The hotel is divided into two phases, the first phase is the characteristic old Siheyuan, antique, retaining the unique charm of the ancient villages in the south of the Yangtze River!
The second phase is the Ming and Qing courtyard themed villa, the overall interior decoration is a new Chinese style!
Because we stayed in the first phase before, so this time we specifically chose to stay in the second phase!
You can call a shuttle bus here, which is considerate and convenient. The buffet of the hotel and the taste of "Zhengjia Xiaochu" are also very good, recommended to try~
Travel tips
The entertainment activities in the scenic area are super rich! Handmade DIY hall, teahouse, tie-dyeing workshop, catching crayfish, stage performance, shaking boat around the stove iced tea... and the water park that children love, you can play non-stop from morning to night, completely away from the city hustle and bustle, come to a healing journey of Jiangnan ancient charm...
If you are lucky, you may also have the chance to encounter an immersive night tour performance.
There is a scene at every step in the scenic area, and you can take pictures as you walk, with a 100% rate of film production.
The "Ming and Qing Street" in the scenic area is both a commercial street and the old shop of the wealthy family. The past and present life of "Lao Fengxiang" is displayed here.
When the sun sets, the afterglow of the setting sun is also the most colorful moment of the day. You can also order a small wine here, watching the shaking boat in the lake slowly shaking, and the bluestone bridge in the distance and the pavilion in the lake form a whole picture of Jiangnan ancient charm. It's really beautiful!!
Avoid the crowd, come here to avoid the world for a few days... Why not be happy in the Jiangnan tune?

Outside the group wall, the wall river surrounds the city, with green water and drooping willows, every family has a port, there are bridges around, there are streets in the house, and there are markets in the streets.
