Slender West Lake can choose to take the small car at the entrance, 40 per person, you can tour most scenic spots, the 24 bridge needs to walk, for me this lazy person is very friendly. Special: I saw a potted plant display area on the way to the car. If you like it, you can choose to walk. It is a pity that I didn't take much pictures.
It is an unforgettable experience to visit the Slender West Lake by boat. The boat was slowly driving in the lake, and I felt the gentleness of the water waves. The boat passed through the bridge hole, and I seemed to cross time and space and return to the misty and rainy Jiangnan water town. Standing at the bow, I looked at the mountains in the distance and the trees in the distance, and I felt an unspeakable touch

Came on April 24, 2024. Slender West Lake is the most well-known scenic spot in Yangzhou. There is no need to describe how beautiful there is. I want to share some sightseeing experiences for your reference. 1. Don't miss the Li Bai statue outside the south gate. The poem fairy's sentence "fireworks in March down Yangzhou" brought Yangzhou to the fire for thousands of years, and not far from the south gate of the Slender West Lake Scenic Area, there is a statue of Li Bai to sing poetry, especially suitable for taking pictures and punching in. The specific location of the statue is near Yechun (Dahongqiao Road Store), and a small bridge is the south gate of the scenic spot. 2. After entering the south gate, you can consider taking a cruise. The Slender West Lake Scenic Area is very large, and all tours are very physical. Fortunately, there is a cruise ship as soon as you enter the south gate. The end of this cruise ship is at Xichuntai by the 24th bridge. It is almost the center of the entire scenic spot. It is close in all directions, and the scenery along the way from the south gate to Xichuntai is very good. You can see it first. It is time and physical strength to visit again. 3. Lianzhu Bridge (Wuting Bridge) The best shooting spots are in Xinzhuang and Diaoyutai. There is no doubt that Lianzhu Bridge is the most representative attraction of the Slender West Lake. The scale of the entire bridge is very large, so there are many tourists, and it is difficult to take ideal tourists photos. After real testing, we found two places, one is on the pile of stones near the Lianzhu Bridge in the northwest corner of Xinzhuang. The place where you can stand here is relatively small. Everyone should pay attention to safety. Diaoyutai can take the effect of "group fan painting" with the perspective of the door hole, and many strategies have also been introduced. 4. Don't miss the luxury self-driving boat. The luxury self-driving boat is on both sides of the bank near the village. The water surface allowed by self-driving boats in the scenic area is very large. You can visit many major attractions from the waterway. More importantly, you can take many unique and clean photos from many angles on the water. And don't worry about other tourists around you. By boat can also be used as a means of rest, two strokes at a time. The cost is 200 yuan/hour + deposit of 400 yuan, and renting an hour is basically enough. Finally, summarize the tour road I recommend: Li Bai Statue (Dahongqiao Road) - enter from the south gate, take the boat - take the boat to visit the scenery along the way (including: Changdi Chunliu, Xuyuan, Xiaojinshan, Lianzhu Bridge, Baita, Linglong Flower World, etc.), go to Xichuntai to visit the northern attractions of the scenic spot (including: North District Beilang, Jingxiang Bookstore, Xiao Li General Painting Book, Wangchun Building, Baita Qingyun, Wanhuayuan) Return to the village, take the photo of the Lianzhu Bridge tourists take the luxury self-driving boat to rest + take exclusive photo of the tourists go ashore to visit the southern attractions, you can take the photo of the Lianzhu Bridge tourists leave from the south gate Open.
Fireworks in March to Yangzhou is true, all people are not fake... After more than ten years, the Slender West Lake is still beautiful, people linger~📌 You must take a boat to Yangzhou, the scenery is so beautiful! From the Royal Wharf, choose the line on the right of the picture three to go directly to Xuyuan in the Slender West Lake Scenic Area. The boat journey is about 40 minutes, and it will be full (6 people/boat, business hours : 8:00-17:00). Because it is directly to the scenic area, you must buy tickets for Slender West Lake! (Buying tickets one day in advance online can be 5 yuan cheaper, there is no discount on the day) 📌 Way to the bonsai garden, free tickets! If you are interested, you can take a look (not in the Slender West Lake scenic spot). 📌 There is free mineral water on the boat. 📌 Electric boats can be rented in the Slender West Lake Scenic Area, 200/hour (5 people can sit)...One person is too uneconomical, or forget it~📌 Wenchuang Ice Cream (Figure 1), milk taste, as long as 18! Cheaper than Jinshan Temple and Chengdu Panda Base, and delicious! 📌 Picture 10, Picture 11 are 24 bridges, and they are also iconic attractions of Slender West Lake! Picture 11, the second floor, feels that you should be able to see the panoramic view of Slender West Lake, but it is transformed into a tea house, 80/person. You can't go upstairs without tea...📌 Picture 12 is the Yangpai bonsai museum, which is full of long bonsai (green plants), there is a special person to take care of, no flowers...📌 I came to the Slender West Lake 3 times (2 times are fireworks March (including this time), 1 big winter, quite bleak), The first time I insisted on entering and leaving from the south gate (the Slender West Lake is headed north and south, and most of the attractions are close to the south gate), there are still surprises! For example, the dining English villa, such as the water system miniature landscape garden, there are many sets of flowers~📌 Qionghua (Figure 5, Figure 6) has been a little thankful, it will be better sooner! 📌 There are some pits in the scenic sightseeing car. It is 20 people when you go up, not just sitting on the same day.
Tang Shi's immersive night tour of the Slender West Lake, the south gate enters the west gate, and walks slowly to watch the performance and light show for about two hours. Value for money, follow the night tour road sign and the beautiful scenery is completely different from the daytime. The world is three points bright moon night, and the two points rogue is Yangzhou.
Very recommended, picturesque, comparable to Hangzhou West Lake, is a good place to casual punch in. The environment is beautiful, especially suitable for beautiful handsome guys, taking pictures, punching in, personally feel that the 100 yuan ticket is still worth it.
