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

Experience Wuxi with a city walk
Get up early and rush to Huishan Ancient Town. Huishan Ancient Town is suitable for slow strolling and leisurely appreciation. The history of the ancient town can be traced back to the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and it was the fief of Huang Xie, the son of Chu in the Warring States Period. Different from other Jiangnan towns, it not only has the gentleness of Jiangnan water towns, but also accumulates the aesthetics of Chinese classical gardens, and even adds some mystery. No wonder Kangxi and Qianlong loved it here, they visited Jiangnan six times, Huishan seven times, and Qinyuan eight times. We also experienced clay sculpture in the ancient town, and we won't show it if it's too ugly. 😢
Leaving Huishan Ancient Town, we went to Ah Bing's former residence. The white walls and black tiles, the mottled and dilapidated wooden door half open, the small square table next to it with different benches, the low cabinet stacked with several old boxes full of dust, a small bed only one person long and one person wide, with a gray gauze curtain similar to a mosquito net hanging on it, the shaky lampshade, the shaky wall skin, it's hard to imagine this is the house where a master lived.
Stepping out of Ah Bing's world, the nearby Bell Tower Library is also a landmark of Wuxi city. Sitting by the window, flipping through a favorite book, the view outside the window is unique to this season. By the way, there is also a chocolate museum nearby, where you can check in and take photos. 😏
After lunch, we went to the film and television base in Wuxi, strolled around, and rushed to watch birds at Turtle Head Isle. Thinking of having a romantic shot with the cute red-billed gulls and the orange sunset, it's simply too photogenic, but unfortunately we didn't catch the sunset. 😧 If you come to Turtle Head Isle, you must check the weather in advance. The best viewing period is from mid-November to February of the following year, which is also a winter romance exclusive to Wuxi.
The old house in the ancient town, the courtyard in the south of the Yangtze River, the clouds hide in the east, and the famous family a hundred years ago
The Mo House hidden in the clouds in the east - built in the Ming Dynasty, is a 500-year-old house. In history, the Mo family has produced two scholars, which can be said to be a real famous family. The Cloud Hidden East is a completely hidden world designed and operated by the famous domestic designer Mr. Lv Shaocang and his wife. The structure of the old house is still the original appearance of the wealthy family's mansion, with a total of three entrances and three courtyards. Walking in from the main entrance, there is a courtyard and a landscape.
Rooms
The Mo House hidden in the clouds in the east has 18 rooms, each of which is individually designed and named after the local cultural tourist place names such as 'Ten Mile Fragrant Path', 'Turtle Islet Spring Wave', and 'Two Springs Reflecting the Moon'. In short, each room has its own characteristics. The entire room is bright and open, mainly divided into five spaces: cloakroom, bedroom, tea room, bathroom, and viewing terrace. In terms of facilities, high-star quality standards, Sealy silk products, Belong bathroom, BOSE audio, Colongne Absolue bath products, etc., as well as central heating and cooling, whole house floor heating, creating a very luxurious living space.
Meals
Breakfast is the main food plus self-service, many homestays are like this now, the main food is different every day. I must highly recommend their homemade Yangchun noodles, the taste is absolutely unique, the soup is made by the chef himself, it looks clear and watery, but the essence is all in the soup, I ate two bowls by myself, other self-service is small pickles, yogurt, milk, toast, fruit and other common foods, it can be considered a combination of Chinese and Western, anyway, it is also very rich.
Surroundings
Pushing the door out is Nanchang Street, within walking distance to Qingming Bridge, Nanchan Temple, bustling and quiet. One out and one in, in the Mo House.
Experience
In the entire courtyard, whether it is the lobby or the courtyard to the corridor, the guest room, it is full of strong ancient poetry, especially the corridor gives me a special surprise, the tea scent, in the meantime, walking in it, refreshing, I especially like it.
Make a winter date to experience the unique romance of Turtle Head Isle
Wuxi | Early winter, don't miss the Metasequoia in Turtle Head Isle
Wuxi has finished the season of ginkgo and maple leaves, don't forget there is Metasequoia! Walking in early winter in Wuxi, wherever there is lake water, there are these clusters of huge 'torches', passionate and beautiful. The Metasequoia in the water landscape garden of Turtle Head Isle is particularly enchanting red, perfectly integrated with the lake surface. These eyes of yellow and red, clearly still have a lingering affection for autumn, quietly probing at the edge of winter. The colder the winter day, the more eager to try such a Turtle Head Isle. Trees grow in the water, boats pass through the forest, a family of black swans swim leisurely in the lake. Two people walking in the painting scroll, a pool of water and a forest look like a color palette of red, orange, yellow and green.
