The Water Forest in Yangzhou, severely underrated【With Guide】

The Water Forest in Yangzhou, severely underrated【With Guide】

❤️Yangzhou actually has such a photogenic spot! It's like Yangzhou's own version of the Emerald City, the greenery is just too beautiful. ❤️Yangzhou's water forest🌳 is covered with duckweed, which at first glance might be mistaken for a lawn. If you want to take photos, it's best to go in the morning when there are fewer people. The photos will also look better. 📍Address: Yangzhou Luoyang Lake Wetland Park 🚃Transportation🚌: Take bus No. 219, get off at Luoyang Lake Tourist Service Center Station 🚕It is recommended to drive🚗 there, as it is quite far from the city center of Yangzhou ⏰️Opening hours: 8:00~17:30 🚏Free admission⬛Boating: 50 yuan for a wooden boat (40 minutes) 🚏An additional 10 yuan is required to walk on the boardwalk above ✅Recommended reasons: 1⃣️This is a water forest where you can enter by boat or wooden boardwalk. The scattered Metasequoia forest has a kind of cool feeling, and the morning light adds a bit of serene beauty. 2⃣️The shadows of the Metasequoia trees are elongated by the light into the depths of the lake, casting on the green algae, creating a shadowy effect. Some people row through every part of the water under the Metasequoia forest, while others lie lazily in the boat, letting it drift and spin. The boat's movement causes ripples, pushing the green algae aside, which is very healing. 📷Photo tips: ✅Best shooting time: 7:00-8:30 in the morning, 16:00-17:00 in the afternoon when the light is beautiful and you can capture the mottled sunlight. ✅Clothing: Solid-colored clothes are more photogenic, black and white clothes give a different feel. ✅In summer, be mindful of sun protection and mosquitoes near the lake, and make sure to use insect repellent. ✅In May and June, the water is covered with a large amount of bright green duckweed. This place is also a paradise for birds and animals. Among the more than 70 species of birds, more than 10 are nationally protected animals.

Potala Palace—A World Cultural Heritage from the Snowy Region

Potala Palace—A World Cultural Heritage from the Snowy Region

Xianglong  Spring Prelude Chapter Eight Potala Palace—A World Cultural Heritage from the Snowy Region 🐬 The majestic Potala Palace, built on Red Hill in Lhasa at an altitude of 3,700 meters, with the main building, the Red Palace, reaching a height of 113 meters, is indeed another level higher on the snowy plateau. It was originally constructed in the 7th century by the Tibetan king Songtsen Gampo specifically to welcome Princess Wencheng of the Tang Dynasty. It was destroyed by war in the 9th century and rebuilt by the 5th Dalai Lama in the 17th century, after which it underwent several expansions. 🐬 In Tibet, where Tibetan Buddhism is prevalent, great importance is placed on religious faith activities, which are integrated into daily life. The various exquisite artifacts stored in the Potala Palace show that the royal nobility at the time made extensive use of gold carvings and inlaid gems, not only for religious ceremonial items but even for common objects such as water pots and wine vessels, which featured intricate metal carvings. The image of the dragon is also commonly seen on these objects, either coiled around the handle, forming the spout, or on the body of the vessel. 🐬 Thangkas are the most characteristic art pieces, and the ones displayed this time mainly depict Buddhist figures and teachings. The exquisite silk and satin create vivid and three-dimensional images with bright colors. 🐬 Special thanks to: China Grand Canal Museum, Tibet Autonomous Region Potala Palace Administration 🇨🇳 Experience the five thousand years of Huaxia, inheriting Chinese civilization

Geyuan Garden in Yangzhou: Different charms by day and night

Geyuan Garden in Yangzhou: Different charms by day and night

Having visited Yangzhou many times, I discovered on this occasion that Geyuan Garden possesses its own unique charm. Within this garden, dense bamboo groves are interspersed with winding paths leading to secluded spots, while the Four Seasons rockeries, representing spring, summer, autumn, and winter, embellish the garden of less than fifty acres with a view at every step. Its ingenious design is a rare example in Chinese gardens. At this moment, the lotus flowers are in full bloom, and many beautiful ladies in ancient costumes are taking photos together in the garden. In the afternoon, a sudden downpour occurred. Although there are many buildings to take shelter in, listening to the rain in the bamboo forest evokes a surge of emotions from the depths of the human heart. Although Geyuan Garden requires careful appreciation, I prefer to visit it at night. With the solitary moon overhead, various colored lights reflect between the bamboo sea and upon the old walls and artificial rocks, creating an even more wondrous feeling when immersed in it. Interestingly, the ladies in Geyuan Garden are indeed quite beautiful, with an exceptionally attractive staff member working in a cultural and creative shop in the south courtyard. During the night visit, there are many performances, and in the south courtyard, there is a lady in a deep blue cheongsam with an excellent temperament. Her new lyrics and tunes make the courtyard fall silent, all listening to her melodious voice. Perhaps such a temperament is precisely the essence of Geyuan Garden's historical heritage. It is the past that time has gently flowed through.

China Grand Canal Museum | World Heritage from the Snowy Plateau

The Potala Palace: World Heritage from the Snowy Plateau Feb 6–May 19, 2024 Organizers: China Grand Canal Museum The Potala Palace, Xizang Autonomous Region Exhibition Venue: Exhibition Halls 11 and 12, China Grand Canal Museum The exhibition is divided into five parts: Preface Hall, Majestic for Millennia, All Things Within, Heavenly Road and Divine Workmanship, and End Hall. The white paint on the outer walls of the Potala Palace is made from white lime, milk, white sugar, rock sugar, and other ingredients. The red paint is made from brown sugar, honey, saffron, and other ingredients. These paints are known for their freshness and high viscosity. In addition to the Potala Palace, many temples in Tibet also use these sweet-smelling paints. Every September in the Tibetan calendar, the Potala Palace undergoes its annual wall painting project, which is a routine "new look" for the palace. During the painting season, pilgrims and tourists from all over the world spontaneously join in the painting work. Bema grass, also known as bianma grass, is made from tamarisk branches. It is a shrub that grows in the deep mountains of high-altitude areas. It grows slowly, is hard, and its branches are not easily forked. Through long-term building practice, the Tibetan people have cleverly applied bema grass to buildings due to its characteristics of being unbendable and resistant to decay. It has become a unique building decoration material in Tibet. Using bema grass as a wall material can reduce the weight of the wall and create a unique decorative effect. China Grand Canal Museum

Life advice: Visit Ge Garden before leaving Yangzhou

Life advice: Visit Ge Garden before leaving Yangzhou

Li Bai wrote, 'In the misty rain of March, I went down to Yangzhou'; Du Mu reminisced, 'A ten-year dream of Yangzhou'; I say, this is the Yangzhou that Emperor Qianlong visited every time he came to the south of the Yangtze River! Of course, you can't miss the various gardens in Yangzhou, After several comparisons, I chose Ge Garden on Dongguan Street. Ge Garden was built during the Ming Dynasty and is the oldest and best-preserved salt merchant's garden in Yangzhou, famous for its delicately stacked rockeries. The garden's owner, Huang Zhiyun, was originally from Hangzhou, and choosing to visit Ge Garden is also to see the mansion of a fellow townsman. 📍 Address: No. 10 Yanfu East Road, Guangling District, Yangzhou City 🚘 Transportation: About 20 yuan by taxi from Yangzhou East Station 🎫 Ticket: 30 yuan per person during the off-season daytime, 45 yuan per person during the peak season, 55 yuan per person at night (including performance) 👉🏻 Tour route: North Gate → Wanzhu Garden → Bamboo West Residence → Congshu Building → Southern Residence → Spring Mountain → Yiyu Pavilion → Summer Mountain → Baoshan Building → Autumn Mountain → Winter Mountain → South Gate 🌱 Ge Garden has three views ❷ View of bamboo: The garden owner has a nature of loving bamboo, and the three leaves of the bamboo resemble the character '个', which is why the garden is named. There are more than 60 varieties of bamboo with nearly 20,000 poles in the garden. ❷ View of rockeries: Spring Mountain uses bamboo-shaped stones to symbolize bamboo shoots after the rain; Summer Mountain uses Taihu stones to simulate summer clouds; Autumn Mountain uses yellow stones to set off the rich autumn colors; Winter Mountain uses Xuan stones to create a snowy scene. ❸ View of the mansion: In addition to the southern residential area, there are also performances such as Qing tunes, ballad singing, dance, and puppet shows during the recent night tours, offering an immersive experience of the exquisite life of the wealthy families in Yangzhou, without fear of sunburn or heat! ❣️ Touring Tips ♡ There are many plants and waterside pavilions in the garden, so be prepared for mosquitoes. ♡ Wearing Hanfu or modern Chinese-style clothing, you can take very stunning photos! ♡ The South Gate is Dongguan Street, which is very lively at night, and you can complete a one-stop experience of eating, drinking, and having fun.
