Su Dongpo wasn't lying when he said that Yixing is a great place for a vacation.

Yaohu Town, a poetic place for the soul As you step into the town, you will see white walls and black tiles, and flying eaves that resemble the tails of swallows, sketching the old dreams of Jiangnan in the blue sky. The stone path winds into the deep alleys, with moss creeping up the walls on both sides, telling stories of the past. The clear Yaohu Lake is like a mirror, reflecting the sky and clouds. When the wind blows, ripples form and whisper to the green willows on the shore. The teahouse on the street corner is filled with the fragrance of fresh tea. Old men sit and play chess, the sound of the pieces falling echoing in the quiet of time. In the traditional handicraft workshop, craftsmen rub the clay and weave bamboo strips with their fingers, inheriting ancient skills and awakening simple nostalgia. As night falls, lanterns reflect on the lake, and the windows of the homestay emit a warm light. You can fall asleep to the moonlight and the croaking of frogs, as if you were living in a Chinese ink painting. Yaohu Town is a gentle place where busy souls can find peace, waiting for every traveler to return.
