Drive from Suzhou to Yancheng in 3 hours on weekends I took a group of photos and my friends circle liked it [StarsEyeUU] I thought I went to Africa to see the great animal migration hahaha🫎 - I left after get off work on Friday night and returned on Sunday afternoon. The trip was relatively relaxed. The total cost for 2 people is less than 1200, 600 mosquitoes per person This time I came mainly to see wild elk 🦌 and to see the red-crowned cranes Here is a guide for your reference: - 1️⃣ Chinese Elk Park 🎫Ticket 50, sightseeing bus 15/one way You can see a lot of elks when you go in🦌 It is recommended to sit by the right window of the sightseeing car. Deer will come to eat. Bring some more cabbage and carrots with you. I really love to eat cabbage. There are also other small animals such as peacocks and ostriches in the garden - 2️⃣ Yellow Sea Wild Deer Pond 🎫Ticket 20 The elk here are more primitive and there are a lot of them. Compared to the elk, the crane stump on the horn amazed me more‼ ️‼ ️ It has a very deadly feel, very shocking I strongly recommend taking a boat to get closer. - 3️⃣ Seawall Road 🆓 Driving 🚗 on the way from Sunrise Bay to Red-crowned Crane There are pure wild elk herds on the roadside Be sure to pay attention, it really exists‼ ️ - 4️⃣ Red-crowned Crane Wetland Ecological Park 🎫40 It takes about 100 kilometers from Yeludang. There are 2 release training sessions every day ⏰ 10:30 and 15:30 But this flying training is too bad [AngryUU] It only took one or two minutes to finish There is no comparison with Qiqihar Zhalong Nature Reserve After taking photos of the red-crowned cranes, you can walk around the wetland park. Very, very big, the reed marshes are beautiful - Accommodation 🏨 There are resorts near the Elk Park and Red-crowned Crane Photo 📸 All photos are taken with a 400mm telephoto lens, and the short ones can hardly capture anything Self-driving 🚘 Yancheng is very strict, and I got a ticket [SpeechlessUU]

The elk is a national first-class protected animal. Because its head and face are long and narrow like a horse, its horns are like a deer but slightly different from other deer, its hooves are broad like a cow, and its tail is long and thin like a donkey, it is also called the "four-unlike animal". In "Investiture of the Gods", Jiang Ziya's mount is a elk. [Tiptop] Although elk were once widely distributed north and south of the Yangtze River in eastern and central China, the main distribution center is still in the coastal areas of the Yangtze River Delta. They love warm and humid swamp waters, and even like to come into contact with sea water and eat seaweed. Take your children to see the baby elks on weekends or holidays, and get close to the elks. You can even buy carrots from the scenic area to feed the elks. The children will definitely be very happy. [Cute] Recommended attractions: Jiangsu Dafeng Elk National Nature Reserve (Chinese Elk Park) [Cute] Located on the coast of the Yellow Sea, the reserve is the world's largest elk nature reserve, with the world's largest wild elk population and the world's largest elk gene bank. The reserve houses national first-class protected animals such as elk, white stork, white-tailed sea eagle, red-crowned crane, and second-class protected animal such as muntjac. There are also more than a thousand elk reintroduced from the UK, with rich and diverse species. The entire scenic area has a very good natural environment and a vast area, and is very interesting and interactive. [TeaDrinker] Tour suggestions: 1. The reserve is very large and it is recommended to take a sightseeing bus for sightseeing. 2. You can buy carrots to feed the baby elk. The baby elk is very cute and will chase your carrots. 3. Pay attention to safety. The elks in the reserve are wild animals and you must avoid getting in danger. 4. Dafeng District is far away from Yancheng City, so it is recommended to drive there. 🚗 Location: Dafeng District, Yancheng City, Jiangsu Province (search for Chinese Elk Park on navigation)

#favouriteitinerary A while ago, I visited Yancheng Ancient Town. It offered both daytime (8:30 AM - 5:00 PM) and nighttime (5:00 PM - 10:00 PM) adventures, with tickets priced at 50 RMB for a day pass and 48 RMB for a night pass. China Milu Park was a highlight, where I got up close with rare animals and strolled through the wetlands, immersing myself in nature's beauty. Yancheng Water Street, with its charming streets and serene water town atmosphere, provided a glimpse into the town's history and culture. The Dutch Flower Sea, surrounded by vibrant flowers, offered stunning photo opportunities and a dreamy ambiance. Using sunscreen during the day and enjoying the night sessions only available on weekends made the visit more enjoyable. Packing swim gear for the park's water activities and booking a return ride in advance if taking a taxi added to the convenience. Yancheng Ancient Town's vibrant charm and cultural beauty left a lasting impression. I highly recommend exploring its unique allure.

Vast reed beds swayed in the wind, clear lake water shimmered, and the sounds of birdsong and rustling reeds filled the air—nature's most beautiful symphony. 🦌Elk Viewing Experience: Riding the sightseeing bus deep into the elk habitat felt like embarking on a wondrous adventure! Herds of elk grazed leisurely on the grassland, frolicking and playing. Some even had adorable fawns, which melted my heart. If you're lucky, you might witness male elk displaying their majestic antlers, engaging in fierce "battles" for territory—a truly awe-inspiring sight! 📸Photo Spots: The elk viewing platform offers breathtaking views overlooking the entire park, capturing the beauty of the elk and the wetlands. Every photo is a masterpiece. There's also the Fengshen Platform, with its ancient charm, complementing the natural scenery in the distance—a perfect backdrop for photos! 🍜Food and Drinks: When you're tired, the park's food court offers a wide variety of local snacks.

Before I went there, I was still doubting whether I could see wild elk! The answer is yes! It was a surprise beyond our expectations when we encountered an elk! 🚄Transportation It takes 2 hours from Shanghai to Yancheng. Rent a car and drive in Yancheng city. (About 1 hour and 15 minutes) 💡Yellow Sea Wild Deer Pond 🎫Ticket price is 20 yuan. The sightseeing bus costs 100 yuan per trip and can accommodate up to 10 people. The scenic area is quite large, so you can choose to charter a sightseeing car for 100 yuan for a circle, and you can stop and take pictures at any time. Elks are usually active at night and lie down to rest in the sun during the day😇 This semi-wild reserve is great value, and you can also see birds! In short, it is highly recommended, but it is best to bring a telephoto camera 🤔 💡Chinese Elk Park 🎫Tickets 50 yuan, sightseeing bus 15 yuan The sightseeing bus is one-way and will go to the wild elk area. It is best to ask the driver to buy carrots (10 yuan a bag) in advance or bring your own. In the wild elk area, deer will come up to you and ask for carrots! After the sightseeing bus ended, there was a place blocked by barbed wire where we could continue feeding. I didn’t expect the elks to be so protective of their food and would fight for food🥊 The overall commercialization level of the scenic area is relatively high, but the advantage is that you can feed elks, it is highly interactive, and the elks here seem to be relatively large. ❤️Unexpected encounter with wild elk On the way from Yeludang to the Chinese Elk Park, County Road A202, there is a forest farm. You will occasionally encounter herds of wild elk on both sides. They are quite afraid of people and will run away if they hear people approaching. It is best to observe and photograph them from a distance. Elks are social animals, and you may encounter a group of them at once! Very good shot! 😍Summary: It is definitely worth coming! Not a scam at all! Perfect for a weekend short trip!

Following the last trip to Yancheng Elk, I want to talk about the Chinese Elk Park in detail and want to talk about the 45 yuan ticket 🎫. Is it worth it? Without further ado, let me first talk about the parts I think are worth mentioning: ✅The elk 🫎 grazing area is very large, and the number and density of elk 🫎 are indeed quite considerable ✅There is a feeding interaction session, listening to the elk eating carrots 🥕, it is crunchy and very relaxing ✅There are also animals such as ostriches and squirrels, as well as the living area of ​​the deer kings over the years, so it is easy to interact ✅There are children's playgrounds, plant mazes, cedar forests, etc. It is not a problem for children to play for a while or just want to take pictures📷 Now let me talk about the part that I think is not worth it: ❌To go to the grazing area, you must take its internal vehicle, which costs 15 yuan per person. The journey is not long, and the stops are very limited. It is really not cheap (rich people can choose to charter a car) ❌The internal grazing area occupies a large area, which causes other parts to be compressed. In fact, except for the interactive and grazing areas, it is a bit boring. ❌Without any supporting facilities, it is very difficult to get food or supplies ❌The exit is almost one kilometer away from the parking lot. It takes a long walk to the end of time. To sum up, this is actually a scenic spot with simple content and insufficient supporting facilities. If you are interested in this kind of animal or want to interact with it, then come and take a look. Remember to take a bus to the grazing area when you come. Here are the Tips time: 🗺️Address: Navigate to the Chinese Elk Park 🎫Tickets: 45 yuan per person, free for children 🅿️Parking: The parking lot entrance is near the entrance, 3 yuan per hour

The only large-scale elk park in China, in addition to visiting the Elk Cultural Museum and learning about the important role that elk has played in Chinese history, you can also personally visit and feed the King of Elk and take in his majestic demeanor. The park has a special shuttle bus that can take visitors to different attractions in the park for free, including the Dingtian Tower and the Deer Viewing Platform

Finally found the best place to take photos in Changbai Mountain in winter, it must be the Reindeer Park, the ice and snow plus the fairy tale reindeer are really super dreamy, just take a few photos and they will look great! - Changbai Mountain: 📍Edelweiss Reindeer Park 🦌 Reindeer are large, with slippery eyes protected by long eyelashes. They feed on lichens, horsetails, mushrooms, and tender branches of woody plants. Our ancestors regarded reindeer as sacred and endowed them with many beautiful myths and legends. Reindeer are very docile, even children can pet them. 🌿 📍Location: Edelweiss Reindeer Park (in Erdaobaihe Town at the foot of Changbai Mountain, very close to the North Slope Distribution Center) 🚗 Transportation: T3 Taxi/Didi (it is not difficult to get a taxi, just wait a few minutes, and you can get one, and it is basically the starting price to get around the town) The driver will usually drop you off at the entrance of the Edelweiss Camp, and the reindeer park is inside. Ticket: CNY 30/person (including moss) In addition to reindeer 🫎, there are also sika deer 🦌 Reindeer Park Exploration 🌟 Walking into the reindeer park is like stepping into a fairy tale world. The reindeer here are gentle and lovely, they stroll leisurely in the snow, making people want to get close. My partner and I carefully stroked the reindeer, feeling the warmth they brought. 🌈 Romantic time in the snow 🌈 In the reindeer park, we can feed the reindeer and take photos with them. Seeing my partner smiling like a child, I knew this trip was worth it! Here, we spent an unforgettable afternoon, enjoying the romantic time in the snow. ⚠️ Notes: ✅ The altitude of the snow ridge is high, and the temperature is lower than the surrounding areas, so please keep warm (such as gloves, hats, warmers, heated insoles, snow boots, etc.) ✅ The snow layer is thick when hiking, it is recommended to rent knee pads to enhance protection ✅ Plan your route and book a vehicle in advance for a smoother trip ✅ Although the signal on the snow ridge is poor, most areas are covered by Wi-Fi ✅ There are many wild snow routes on the mountain, please do not try them easily, be sure to go back and forth along the main road to ensure safety

We always think we have to fly to Africa to see large groups of wild animals, but it turns out there's a great place right here in the Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai area! I drove from Shanghai, which took about 3.5 hours, to Dafeng District in Yancheng, Jiangsu. There are two great places to visit here: Huanghai Yelu Dang and the Dafeng Milu National Nature Reserve (a 5A scenic area). First, let's talk about Huanghai Yelu Dang. To see the wild deer, you have to walk along Qiming Road, where you can see some wild deer wandering along the roadside. If you want a closer look, turn right at the fork in the road and pay CNY 20 to enter an area where you can get closer to the wild deer. If you have a drone, you can take some cool aerial shots; if you have a camera with a telephoto lens, you can also take some clear shots of the deer. Next, let's talk about the Dafeng Milu National Nature Reserve. The milu deer here are semi-captive, and you can only enter by taking a sightseeing bus. However, you can feed the milu deer up close on the sightseeing bus, which is a lot of fun. Be careful when feeding the milu deer, follow the staff's instructions, and don't hurt yourself or scare the deer. By the way, be careful when driving in areas where wild deer are present, and drive slowly, as you never know when a deer might run out. And don't disturb the wildlife, wherever you are, and let them live freely. This trip to Yancheng was really worth it! It's perfect for a weekend or a short holiday. If you're in the Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai area and want to find a different place to travel, come to Yancheng.

The Chinese Milu Deer Park, a sanctuary dedicated to the rare Milu deer, offers a fascinating journey to get up close with these unique animals. Here, numerous adorable Milu deer roam freely across the grasslands and marshes, enjoying the tranquility of nature. Witnessing these legendary 'four-not-like' creatures in person is truly a delightful surprise. The park not only educates visitors about the habits and conservation efforts of the Milu deer but also allows them to experience the harmony and beauty of nature. As you tour the park, you'll be greeted by vast wetland landscapes, shimmering waters, and birds soaring in the sky, creating a vibrant natural tableau. Particularly during dawn or dusk, the sunlight casts a warm and beautiful glow on the deer and the grasslands. This visit to the Milu Deer Park has deeply impressed upon me the importance of protecting rare animals and has awakened my appreciation for the ecological environment. The Chinese Milu Deer Park is not only a home for the Milu deer but also the perfect place for people to connect with nature and learn about wildlife, leaving countless wonderful memories.

There is a small but worthwhile city in Jiangsu. Not only does it have a vast sea and lush forests, but it also has a refreshing natural scenery, which is Yancheng. This land embraced by nature also nurtures countless miracles of life. In the Chinese Milu Park dyed with green, the milu deer seem to be the elves of the earth. They shuttle lightly through the woods and grasslands, either bowing their heads for food or playing and chasing. I have had eye contact with the milu deer several times, and their eyes are pure and ethereal. Take a sightseeing tour bus and bring a carrot to get close to them. Looking at the cute appearance of the milu deer's nose and mouth stretching into the car window, I instantly feel the beauty of mutual trust between humans and animals. In front of the Milu Museum, there is a "door" made entirely of milu deer antlers, which is said to have created a Guinness record. The museum is about the story of the milu deer, which is worth spending time visiting. The Red-crowned Crane Wetland Ecotourism Area is even more a flowing poem. When we went there, it was sunny after the rain, and the blue sky and white clouds were reflected in the lake, and the red-crowned cranes danced freely. This is the first time I have been so close to the red-crowned crane. Their feathers are clearly in front of my eyes, white as snow and red as rosy clouds. The crane's call is like the sound of nature, the whisper of nature, and the rhythm of life. Yancheng seems to have become more vivid and colorful because of the Chinese Milu Park and the Red-crowned Crane Wetland Ecotourism Area. For them, for this natural hymn, I can really come countless times!

Actually, I have always heard that Yancheng is fun, and it is also not far from Jiangsu Province, so I got up early earlier and went on a spontaneous trip. I stepped on the accelerator and the car started running~ (I basically drove to nearby cities by myself, and I also love driving by myself, maybe it’s because I enjoy the freedom!) This time it was two days and one night, and I only went to the three places I was most interested in. There are still many other attractions that I haven’t visited. I will update slowly later~ Figure 2⃣️-4⃣️: 📍Dutch Flower Sea (No. 1, Huaihai West Road, Xinfeng Town, Dafeng District, Yancheng City) is recommended for self-driving. The place is relatively remote and it takes about ten minutes to get there after getting off the highway. The parking lot🅿️ is huge and there are several of them. When there is a large flow of people, they will be guided to park in a farther place. However, there is a free shuttle bus in the parking lot, so don't worry. April and May are the best time for tulips🌷 to bloom. When you go there, you will see the mountains full of bright flowers🥰The park is very large and there are many programs. It is no problem to play for half a day. It is a highly recommended seasonal attraction. Ticket price: 5⃣️0⃣️, recommendation index: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Figure 5⃣️-8⃣️: 📍Zhulin Hotel (No. 146, Jianjun Middle Road, Tinghu District, Yancheng City). You will see the parking lot 🅿️ directly on the navigation. It is just behind the hotel. There are plenty of parking spaces, so don’t worry. The overall nostalgic style inside is beyond filming. Every corner is perfect for taking photos 📸Sisters, prepare enough photo albums🥸There are also a lot of snacks and delicacies in the building. Walk around and choose one you like and have lunch here. It is recommended to eat first before taking photos, so you can get twice the result with half the effort! A great tool for making movies, no tickets required, recommended index: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Figure 9⃣️—1⃣️2⃣️: 📍The parking lot is right at the entrance of the Chinese Elk Park (Chinese Elk Park on Nancao Line, Dafeng District, Yancheng City). (It is recommended to take the shuttle bus. The shuttle bus has an exclusive route where you can get close to the elk. You have to cut the carrots 🥕 yourself and bring them with you. They are not available for purchase in the park.) Don’t take a car when you come out. It is recommended to walk. There are many small attractions on the way out of the park, as well as various animals such as ostriches, deer kings, peacocks, etc. What can I say about this attraction? Super value 💥 Super awesome 💥 Super fun 💥. Tickets: 4⃣️5⃣️, I forgot the shuttle bus 😅, Recommendation index: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Didn't have enough fun, will come again next time, recommend everyone to come 🤗🤗🤗

Yancheng, formerly known as Yandu, is a prefecture-level city under the jurisdiction of Jiangsu Province and a city in the central area of the Yangtze River Delta. It is located in the eastern coastal area of China, in the eastern part of Jiangsu Province, and borders the Yellow Sea to the east. The entire territory is a plain, with high terrain in the northwest and southeast, and low-lying areas in the middle and northeast, divided into the Huanghuai Plain, the Lixiahe Plain, and the Coastal Plain; it is a transition zone from the North Asian subtropics to the warm temperate climate. Yancheng has been established since the sixth year of Emperor Gao of the Western Han Dynasty (201 BC), and it was originally named Yandu County. In the ninth year of Emperor An of the Eastern Jin Dynasty (413 AD), it was renamed Yancheng County. Yancheng is home to the only World Natural Heritage Site in Jiangsu, the Yellow (Bo) Sea Migratory Bird Habitat. The city has convenient transportation by sea, land, and air, and has basically formed a three-dimensional transportation network integrating highways, railways, aviation, sea transportation, and inland water transportation. Nanyang International Airport, Dafeng Port Area of Yancheng Port, Binhai Port Area, Sheyang Port Area, and Xiangshui Port Area have become national first-class open ports, making it a prefecture-level city with both an airport and a seaport as first-class open ports. It is the intersection of the national coastal development and the Yangtze River Delta integration strategies. The city has hundreds of kilometers of tidal flats and wetlands, with two national nature reserves for red-crowned cranes and elk, and a Chinese sturgeon nature reserve under construction. Topography: The entire territory of Yancheng is a plain, with high terrain in the northwest and southeast, and low-lying areas in the middle and northeast. Most areas are less than 5 meters above sea level, and the maximum relative height is less than 8 meters. It is divided into three plains: the Huanghuai Plain, the Lixiahe Plain, and the Coastal Plain. The Huanghuai Plain is located north of the Subei Irrigation Main Canal, and its terrain gradually decreases to the northeast and southeast, roughly centered on the abandoned Yellow River. Origin of the name: Yancheng was established as Yandu County in the fourth year of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty (119 BC). At that time, there were salt fields everywhere here, and there were salt rivers everywhere. 'Du' means the river for transporting salt. In the seventh year of Emperor An of the Eastern Jin Dynasty (411 AD), it was renamed Yancheng County, and the name 'Yancheng' has been used to the present day. It is named after the 'salt fields around the city'. Customs and folklore: In the rural areas of Yancheng and Funing, there were historical activities of boy servants making incense and performing witchcraft. The content includes: praying for a good harvest and holding a green seedling meeting, an adding seedling meeting; extending blessings and eliminating disasters and holding a peace meeting, a Mars meeting, etc. With the changes of history, the content of these performances has been continuously enriched, and after a long period of evolution, it has gradually developed into a incense play. The incense play is a local small play closely related to folk ghost and god beliefs, also known as Sanhuozi, Sankexi, etc., which was finally formed around the first year of Tongzhi in the Qing Dynasty (1862). Its singing tune is composed of the 'Incense Tune' popular in the territory and the 'Huai Bounce' from Huaiyin, Baoying and other places. At the same time, incense play artists often team up with door ballad artists, so there are many tunes in the incense play that come from door ballads. Theater art: Huai opera, also known as Jianghuai opera, is popular in Jiangsu Province, Shanghai City, and some areas of Anhui Province. In the middle of the Qing Dynasty, in Yancheng, Funing and other places in Jiangsu, there was a popular form of storytelling developed from farmers' haozi and field songs 'Leilei Tune' and 'Planting Seedlings Tune', which was a single singing or duet singing with only bamboo boards as the rhythm. Later, it was combined with the folk god-offering 'Incense Play' to perform, and it was called 'Jiangbei Small Play'. Later, it was influenced by Huixi and Jingxi, and gradually enriched in singing tunes, performances, and repertoire, forming Huai opera. Early Huai opera mainly used 'Old Huai Tune' and 'Kao Ba Tune', and the singing tune was basically a linked structure of tune cards, and no orchestral instruments were played. Around the 19th year of the Republic of China (1930), Dai Baoyu, Liang Guangyou, Xie Changyu and others, based on the 'Incense Tune', began to create some new tunes accompanied by erhu, because the erhu was played with a bow, so it was called 'La Tune'. This greatly improved the performance art of Huai opera, and the mobile area gradually expanded from Yancheng, Funing, Huaian and other places to Jiangsu Province. In the first year of the Republic of China (1912), Huai opera artists He Kongde, Chen Dasan, etc., brought Huai opera to Shanghai for singing. Later, the famous actor He Jiaotian created the 'Chain Sentence' singing tune, which further enriched the 'Free Tune'. The traditional repertoire of Huai opera includes: early life small plays 'Tongue-to-Tongue', 'Foot Travel', 'Clever Grandma Scolding Cat', etc., big plays 'Nine Lotus Thirteen Heroes' (that is, 'Qin Xianglian', 'Lan Yulian' and other 9 plays with the word 'Lian' and 'Wang Erying', 'Su Diying' and other 13 plays with the word 'Ying') and 'Legend of the White Snake', 'Yue Fei', 'Thousand Miles to Send Jingniang', 'Zhuangyuan Robe', 'Official Ban Min Lamp', etc.
