Here I come, Haining Leather City

Arrived Saturday night and stayed at Atour in Guanxiang, very distinctive. Behind it is the ancient town, and just across a bridge is the silk factory. At night, there were very few people on the ancient town street, and not many shops were open. During the day, I went to the silk factory (seems like many shops don’t open on weekends, they open after 10:30. I went too early and missed many small accessory shops). At noon, I drove to Yanguan to watch the tide rise (although the tide isn’t very big this season). I was very lucky; as soon as I arrived at the parking lot, the staff told me to hurry up and run a bit, and I saw the amazing Qiantang River tidal bore haha. The river is so wide and impressive, no wonder it’s the place of Nezha’s sea turmoil 😏 I visited Chaole City, the ancient town inside is quite well made, the small bridges are beautiful. There’s not much food, drink, or entertainment inside, so I suggest eating beforehand. Many areas are still under construction. Personally, I think the 60 yuan ticket is a bit expensive. The 30 yuan Tide Watching Park is more cost-effective for me. In the afternoon, I went to Leather City. Buses full of elderly people were arriving one after another, very lively! But the prices were sky-high, starting at 680 yuan, bargaining down to 150 yuan, all require negotiation, so be careful (I’m not good at bargaining). There were many nice styles, but I didn’t buy anything in the end because I’m not yet at the age to wear mink coats 🤣
