Great Places to Visit Around Shanghai | Enjoy a One-Stop Parent-Child Outing in the Immortal Town of Jiangnan

🍃Just after the Qingming holiday, I took the kids to Jintan, Changzhou. Dongfang Salt Lake City of Maoshan, you can really have a blast! In this magical Immortal Town, we encountered a spring-limited pink sea of flowers, pouring down like a waterfall, as if we were in a realm of mountains and flowers. Especially the main scene 'Mountain and Sea Flower Waterfall', whether following the official must-photograph spots or just snapping away, it's truly beautiful no matter how you take the picture. 📸First, some photography tips: 🔸Priority should be given to Hanfu or modern Chinese-style clothing; or you can go with pink or bright colors; 🔹Under the Xiquan Pavilion's 'Mountain and Sea Flower Waterfall', there are five popular photo spots: Colorful Stones, Gold Touching Stairs, Xiquan Branches, Water Secret Realm, Kun and Peng; this is also the performance venue for 'Legends of Mountains and Seas', and after the show, the beautiful girls and handsome boys will come down to interact and take photos with tourists, and they are all very enthusiastic. 🔸The streets, shops, and boats of the fairy town are adorned with colorful flowers, all of which can capture the bustling beauty of spring; ▪︎From the morning bells and evening drums to the night's carefree fireworks show, a variety of performances are staged at scheduled times throughout the town; ▪︎Wandering around the town, you can interact with NPCs without fear; during the Mulan show at noon, you might get chosen to experience being an extra, immersively participating in the show; ▪︎In Dongfang Salt Lake City, you don't have to worry about being hungry, with a wide selection from snacks to stir-fries, from barbecues to desserts; ▪︎We also tried the intangible cultural heritage lacquer fan, enjoyed boating at the dock in the water park, and had fun splashing in the water; 👨‍👧‍👦If you're coming from a nearby city like us, be sure to stay overnight. There are many hotels in the scenic area, and you can choose one that suits you. The key is that staying in a hotel includes the admission ticket to the scenic area, so you can enjoy two days of fun. We stayed at the Laurel Building in Songgui Li, which has an ancient charm. There is a shuttle service from the accommodation center to the hotel and for check-out, and there are Hanfu available for selection in the guest rooms and hotel lobby, as well as DIY handcraft experiences. 🌺Spring is overflowing, and the spirit of spring is in the air.
