Early in the morning, I took a bus from downtown Xinyi to the scenic area. I walked and visited Wuhua Peak, the highest peak of Maling Mountain, which offers a panoramic view of the entire scenic area. Then, I walked to Sanxian Cave, admiring the peculiar pines and rocks along the way.

This day trip not only allowed me to appreciate the wonders of nature but also immersed me in the profound history and culture, making it a truly rewarding experience.

I champion for Yaowan Ancient Town!!! Before going, I saw many negative reviews and hesitated whether to go or not, I'm so glad I came!! I really love it! I've been to many ancient towns, and this one is no worse than any I've visited! Yaowan Ancient Town is not overly commercialized, not crowded, with not many shops open, it's not suitable to be treated as a food street, but it has everything you need, 1 Sen, Hu Shang, seven-point T-shirts and so on. Yaowan Ancient Town has the most toilets I've ever seen in a scenic area, which is very considerate. You can see a toilet every few steps, and they are very clean! You can feel their efforts, many places are still under renovation, and it feels very good. The security aunties in the scenic area are all very enthusiastic and gentle!! Yaowan Ancient Town is really super beautiful! There's also a huge sea of flowers, which was a pleasant surprise! Many small storefronts, once you enter, reveal a whole new world! It's really big, I arrived at three in the afternoon, watched the performances, and left after 9 pm, the 40 yuan ticket is really worth it!! I can't believe some people don't think it's worth it! The scenic area is already very beautiful and charming, very conscientious, with some nice performances! Am I asking too little or is everyone else's expectations too high... The only strange thing is that the matching parking lot actually charges a fee, but it's very cheap, only ten yuan. I highly recommend everyone to go!!! Even someone like me who doesn't like taking photos, had my partner take photos of me all day!! I feel like Yaowan Ancient Town will get better and better!!

🍵Everyone has a fondness for ancient towns in their heart. Take advantage of the beautiful spring weather to bring your family and friends to Yaowan Ancient Town during this May Day holiday to experience the charm of Xuzhou's number one ancient town on the Grand Canal. Find a quiet spot to slowly savor the fragrance of tea and enjoy the slow pace of life. 🏠The beauty of Yaowan's architecture lies in its integration of southern and northern features, which is closely related to its geographical location. The Grand Canal connects the south and the north, and as an important node, Yaowan is where southern and northern cultures collide and blend. Therefore, the architectural style of the ancient town is both delicate like the south and bold like the north. 1️⃣Wu Family Courtyard: A typical northern architecture, but with high and small windows, tight courtyards, and thick walls, it has the function of protecting against typhoons and heavy rain, hence it also has the architectural legacy of the Fujian coastal area. 2️⃣Suzhenyang Guild Hall: Built during the Qing Dynasty's Kangxi era by merchants from Suzhou, Zhenjiang, and Yangzhou, hence named Suzhenyang Guild Hall. The backyard is now the 'Suzhenyang Inn', integrating accommodation, dining, and conferences. With pavilions, terraces, bridges over flowing water, it is full of poetic and scholarly charm, highlighting the style of Jiangnan gardens. 3️⃣Sanjin Courtyard: After the 'Opening of the Canal for Transportation', Shanxi merchants came to Yaowan to do business, where they set up banks and pawnshops and built the Shanxi Guild Hall. The Sanjin Courtyard, as the backyard of the Shanxi Guild Hall, is now a Shanxi-themed inn. The architecture with its bracket sets, flying eaves, colorful decorations, and majestic atmosphere, and elements such as wood carvings, brick carvings, stone carvings, and lacquerware, all exude the splendid brilliance of Shanxi culture. 4️⃣Catholic Church: Originally built in 1909, it was rebuilt on the original site in June 2011. It features European Gothic architectural style, with twin towers reaching 40.6 meters high. The towering spires and colorful stained glass showcase the mysterious and sublime artistic charm. 😋Yaowan Boat Cuisine: 'Fresh, blended, healthy, refreshing', with a rich variety of dishes, traditional dishes are integrated with innovative ones to meet the needs of different diners!
