The Longwang Temple adjacent to the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal and the Roman Lake is also known as the Qianlong Palace. Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty visited Jiangnan six times and lived here five times.

Yangzhou's charming water color is attractive and delicious.

Baoying lake National Wetland Park, adjacent to the Grand Canal in the east and baoying lake in the west, has many unique aquatic and terrestrial vegetation and wildlife. In addition to the restoration and protection of wetlands, there are many sightseeing and experience areas in the park for tourists to visit. Gaoyou is an important area of Jianghuai civilization and postal culture. Guyucheng Inn and Shuishang Zhenguo Temple are both popular local attractions.
Start by following Kyle. Polo's pace is so far, of course, we can't miss its memorial hall. In addition, you can visit China Woodblock Printing Museum to learn about China, an ancient civilization, from a cultural perspective. Yangzhou is famous for its beautiful watercolors. We should cruise on the ancient canal, go boating on the Slender West Lake, and explore the glory of the past in Guazhou.
Huaiyang cuisine always pays attention to knife work and has a light taste. It is the representative of Su cuisine. Whether it's braised lion's head, flat bridge tofu or crab yellow glutinous rice balls, it's all delicious food not to be missed. In addition, don't forget to taste Yangzhou morning tea that even Emperor Qianlong never forgets.
Nanjing climbed the city wall to buy brocade.
Nanjing Ming City Wall is the best preserved Ming City Wall in Nanjing and the largest ancient building in Nanjing. It was built in the 26th year from Yuan Dynasty to Zheng Zheng (1366) and took 28 years to complete. Besides visiting the city gate, you can climb the city wall and overlook the scenery of Nanjing. In the afternoon, climb the tower to enjoy the scenery of Xuanwu Lake.
Xuanwu Lake was once the largest royal garden lake in China. There are five islands on the lake, and each island has different scenic spots. Nanjing Yunjin is a traditional silk handicraft in China. Go to Yunjin Research Institute to see the production process of Yunjin.
The hometown of Taizhou Shi Naian
Xinghua, the ancient city of Taizhou, has a history of more than 2,000 years and is the hometown of celebrities such as Shi Naian and Zheng Banqiao. Visiting Shi Naian Memorial Hall can not only mourn this old friend, but also tell us a lot about the process of Mr. Shi Naian's creation of Water Margin.
Zhenjiang Cuxiang Wan Chuan Li
Zhenjiang vinegar is famous far and wide. Visiting the Vinegar Culture Museum can not only interpret the vinegar culture, but also have the opportunity to taste the aged vinegar. The museum is divided into three main exhibition halls: the old workshop, the vinegar history museum and the exhibition hall, with an experience hall. After visiting the museum, remember to try the "three eccentrics of Zhenjiang"-balsamic vinegar, meat and pot cover noodles.
Zhenjiang is not only famous for vinegar, but also the legendary Jinshan Temple in Legend of the White Snake. Standing on this thousand-year-old temple tower overlooking the river is a pleasure.

The whole garden is centered on water and has the characteristics of Jiangnan water town. The main attractions are the Garden Museum and the East, West and Middle Gardens. Kyle. The Travels of Polo mentioned that Suzhou is rich in raw silk and made into silks and satins. Of course, we can't miss the silk culture here. Wujiang is rich in silk with many rows. You can buy handwritten letters and give them to your relatives and friends.
Tongli Ancient Town, also located in Wujiang and connected by 49 ancient bridges, was built in the Song Dynasty, which is an excellent portrayal of "a small bridge with flowing water".
