It's best to allocate more time to these three places. The Cherry Blossom Tower has an ancient charm, allowing you to climb high and overlook the cherry blossoms; Cherry Blossom Valley is as picturesque as its name, and there's even a Cherry Blossom Post Office for a photo op. The most beautiful area of Turtle Head Isle is undoubtedly the Changchun Bridge area, which is adjacent to Taihu Lake. Not only are there flowers and the lake, but also ancient bridges, boats, and buildings. Nighttime cherry blossom viewing is mainly in the Changchun Bridge area. 👟 How to arrange a relaxed and reasonable route? For visitors entering from the Dushan Gate and Changchun Bridge, the recommended route is Changchun Bridge - (Taihu Fairy Island) - Cherry Blossom Valley - Cherry Blossom Tower - Chongshan Gate exit, which is the most relaxed. Compared to Dushan Gate, Chongshan Gate is the first choice for most visitors to Turtle Head Isle, with the most people, so it's recommended to go early. After arriving at Chongshan Gate, there are three options to choose from. Option 1⃣️ Walking Recommended route: Chongshan Gate - Flower Iris Garden - Friendship Pavilion - Cherry Blossom Tower - Cherry Blossom Valley - Changchun Bridge The one-way trip from Chongshan Gate to Changchun Bridge is about 3 kilometers, all on flat ground, passing by Cherry Blossom Tower and Cherry Blossom Valley. If you have extra time, you can take a boat to Taihu Fairy Island and then return. The ticket includes the boat fare. Option 2⃣️ Sightseeing Car Line 1 (Charged) Stops along the way: Chongshan Gate - Chongshan Hidden Beauty - Flower Iris Garden - Friendship Pavilion - Jiangnan Orchid Garden - Shan Hui Chuan Mei | Cherry Blossom Valley - Cao Wan Autumn Rain - Water Scenery Garden - Chongshan Gate The outbound trip is basically the same as the recommended walking route, but there may be queues when it's crowded, which might not save time, so choose according to your situation. Option 3⃣️ Free Park Shuttle In addition to the charged sightseeing car, Turtle Head Isle has a free shuttle bus that goes directly to the vicinity of Cherry Blossom Valley. The downside is also the queue when there are many people. The free shuttle bus starts at Chongshan Hidden Beauty, passes through Ten Mile Fragrance Path, and finally arrives near Cherry Blossom Valley. Since this is close to the cherry blossom core area of Changchun Bridge, it is recommended to go to Changchun Bridge first. The route is Changchun Bridge - (Taihu Fairy Island) - Cherry Blossom Valley - Cherry Blossom Tower - Chongshan Gate exit, the same as for visitors entering from Dushan Gate. Commando One-Day Trip, Don't Miss These Places If you are a commando, in addition to the above itinerary, there are a few more places not to miss. Luding Yinghui is the highest point in the Turtle Head Isle scenic area, where you can overlook Cherry Blossom Valley and gaze at Taihu Lake from afar. The line from the Lighthouse to Wanlang Bridge is a great place to watch the sunset. Especially for visitors waiting for the night cherry blossoms, you can go to Wanlang Bridge and Xiaqi Pavilion in the evening to wait for the sunset.
