Spring is all about cherry blossom viewing, here's the guide to cherry blossoms in Wuxi
❤Recommended reason:
Hey friends~ I just went to Turtle Head Isle last weekend, the cherry blossoms were so beautiful! Other than the crowd, there's nothing to complain about!
Why go to Turtle Head Isle?
It's one of the top three cherry blossom viewing spots in the world for a reason, the cherry blossoms are really super beautiful! There are many varieties and rich colors, walking around the lake is like stepping into a fairy tale.
⏳Best time to visit:
When is the best time to go?
Late March to early April is when the cherry blossoms are most beautiful. However, the weather is unpredictable, so be sure to check the blooming period before you go!
What to wear?
Keep it simple and comfortable, preferably in light colors, which go well with the cherry blossoms. Remember to bring an extra coat because of the temperature difference.
📝Tips to note:
Here comes the ultimate guide:
Make sure to bring drinking water and a power bank!! There are really too many people, all the drink machines in the park were sold out, and the shared power banks were all borrowed out! We were in a hurry when our phone batteries were almost dead, looking everywhere, and finally got a charging cable at the front desk of the Cherry Blossom Manor.
Many guides say that going early means fewer people and better photo opportunities. But we wanted to see the night cherry blossoms, so we went around 2 pm, which was just the right time.
Attention!! Quick entry guide: Take the subway to Meiyuan Kaiyuansi Station, come out of Exit 5, there are local motorcycles on the roadside, 10 minutes to the Dushan Gate scenic entrance. Don't go for the scenic shuttle bus, it's so congested on the road that you'll doubt life, we took a motorcycle and felt sorry for those stuck in private cars and scenic shuttle buses.
Attention!! Quick exit guide: Still exit from Dushan Gate, walk for about 30 minutes to the main road, continue to take a motorcycle to the subway station, and head home.
🗓Itinerary arrangement:
Cherry blossom viewing route suggestion
After entering from Dushan Gate, it only takes about 5 minutes to reach Cherry Blossom Valley, stroll under the cherry trees, and you'll unknowingly arrive at the Cherry Blossom Pavilion, where you can take photos from the front of the pavilion across the lake, the angle is very beautiful. After leaving Cherry Blossom Valley, you can go to the best spot of Taihu Lake, where Changchun Bridge is located, the photos are very beautiful. If the timing is right, play until 6 pm when the night cherry blossom lights are on, seamlessly connecting. Otherwise, if you go out and come back in, you'll have to queue up again, because 6 pm is exactly when the night cherry blossom ticket army enters, so the suggested viewing order is as follows:
🌟Highlights:
Cherry Blossom Valley: Definitely a photo paradise.
Cherry Blossom Pavilion: Enjoy the lake and mountain scenery.
The best spot of Taihu Lake: Changchun Bridge, overlooking Taihu Lake, admiring cherry blossoms, it's stunning, and at 6 pm, seamlessly connect to the night cherry blossoms
When the cherry blossoms are blooming, it will be really congested, not ordinary. That fairy island is boring, you can or don't go, of course, because the ticket includes the ticket, so I feel that I go there, and the result is very disappointing.
Wuxi Taihu Shantouyu has a beautiful scenery. It is divided into Taihu Xiandao and the main scenic spot. You need to take a boat. The main scenic spot is relatively concentrated. There are buses and boats in the scenic spot. It is more convenient to be included in the ticket. Next time, wait for the cherry blossoms to bloom.
Wuxi Taihu Shantouyu scenery is super beautiful, although not in time for the flower season, but catch up with the sunset. Tickets include buses and ferry tickets in the scenic area. I only entered the park after 3:00 pm. I took the bus directly to the pier in the scenic area. I went to Taihu Xiandao first, and then returned to the main scenic area by boat. The scenic area is relatively concentrated. It is beautiful, and it is a great place from Taihu Lake. Walk through various attractions to the snow pavilion and then return. Come back next time when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom
Taihu is well-deserved. The lake and mountains are indeed worth a visit. This time I went by car. I heard people say that I have to go to the scenic spot as soon as possible. Otherwise, there is no place to park. If you are late, you can only park in a far place and take the bus to enter the scenic spot. In short, it feels good.
The beautiful place of Wuxi, although it is not the cherry blossom season, but there are few people who can slowly taste the beautiful scenery of the south of the Yangtze River and enjoy the scenery of Taihu Lake, it is a worthwhile trip. It is worthy of 5A scenic spot, the service and health are very good, there is also a century-old shop in the scenic spot, tasted Taihu Sanbai, the taste is excellent 😍
Wuxi Shantouyu Scenic Area is worthy of being a world-class cherry-watching resort. The cherry blossoms in the cherry blossom valley are full of mountains and fields. The surrounding area of Changchun Bridge is a great place to enjoy flowers, especially the night cherry blossoms at night under the lights. I have to say that there are really many people in the scenic spot, but the scenic service is in place, and the service staff is also very hard and very professional! Just take the shuttle bus out of the scenic spot at night. There are very, very many people, but there is the management of the service staff. Everyone queues in order and can get on the bus and leave soon!
It is worth going. It is recommended not to take a battery car to enter the gate of the mountain. Otherwise, you will miss a lot of scenery. You will walk all the way to the pier. There are different scenery in different seasons along the way. We missed the cherry blossom season when we came, but Jiangnan Lanyuan made our eyes one of the bright, from Lanyuan, Take a boat to the island to play, about 1 hour, take a boat back, go to Shantou, tired take a free bus back to the gate of Chongshan
