Who understands?! After finishing watching "Northbound," I immediately rushed to Hua'an Flower Street. The cobblestone streets hold 600 years of canal transport history, and the street food smelled so good I couldn't resist. This trip was absolutely worth it! 😭 🍜 Must-Try Food List (in order of priority) 1. Soft-shelled Eel Noodles: The heartthrob breakfast of Hua'an! Stir-fried eel is placed on alkaline noodles; the aroma wafts across half the street the moment it's mixed. So fresh it'll make your eyebrows fall off – this is the ultimate romance of carbs. 2. Wenlou Soup Dumplings: Served like little lanterns, the skin is so thin you can see the soup sloshing around. Take a small bite to sip the soup before eating the meat; it's so fresh you'll want to stomp your feet! Be careful, it's hot, but you just can't stop eating it. 3. Street Fried Radish Dumplings: Auntie's freshly fried radish dumplings, the outer skin is so crispy it crumbles, the filling is juicy and tender. Two for 5 yuan – such great value it'll make you cry. 4. Puyuan Sweet Soup: After a long day of shopping, pop into this little shop for a bowl of traditional sweet soup. Enjoy it with old photos on the wall, and you'll instantly feel transported back to old Qingjiangpu. The tiger-skin chicken feet are especially delicious. 5. Yuejia Tea Fried Dough Sticks: Golden and crispy, piled high like a small mountain. They're crunchy on their own, but even better when soaked in soup. Pack them as a souvenir, and your elders will surely praise them. 📸 Photo Spots - North Entrance of Huajie Street: The cobblestone streets and antique architecture make for stunning retro photos. - Liyun Riverbank: Best time to visit is 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM. Enjoy the shimmering light and shadow on the Guoshi Pagoda and the pleasant evening breeze. - Huajie Mini Bookstore: The creative cultural products on the wooden shelves are beautifully designed. Xu Zechen's novels are neatly arranged, exuding an artistic vibe. - Intangible Cultural Heritage Sugar Painting Stall: The master craftsman's handmade sugar threads dance gracefully, creating a perfect atmosphere for videos. ✨ Shopping Tips 1. We recommend going after 3 PM. Enjoy the snacks first, then browse the shops. A stroll along the canal in the evening is incredibly pleasant. 2. For souvenirs, choose the tea snacks or the cultural and creative products at Weishuju. They're unique and won't disappoint. 3. The "five yuan in Huajie, twenty yuan in Huai'an" meme from TV dramas really comes to mind here! Huajie isn't long, but every step is a surprise. It offers both traditional flavors loved by Emperor Qianlong and trendy new Chinese-style shops popular with young people. Don't just know Huaiyang cuisine when you come to Huai'an; this old street along the canal is the real treasure! #Huai'anTourism #FilmingLocationOf"Northward #HuajieGuide #CanalFood #WeekendGetaway

It's truly a hidden gem! ❗Huai'an, you'd be foolish not to promote this place [Facepalm]. With 2,500 years of history, the bluestone pavements, flowing water, and Hui-style architecture weave together a living painting of Jiangnan. [Tiptop] Even more surprising is that the ancient town is free to enter, yet it's home to cultural landmarks like the Zhuangyuan Mansion and Wu Cheng'en's former residence.
