Two-Day Tour of Tongling Yongquan Town

Day 1: Arrive at Yongquan Town at 12 noon and first check in. The housekeeper will lead you to your room and introduce the town’s activities and attractions along the way. After a short rest in the room, head to the money exchange to trade for copper coins. With coins in hand, you can enjoy all kinds of food and drinks: black pork buns for one copper coin, tofu pudding for two copper coins, and the popular Grandma’s Firewood Rice. After eating, play various games like beanbag toss, basketball shooting, and ring toss to relive childhood memories and win more copper coins. At 3 PM, don’t miss the town’s “Nostalgia” tour performance, which takes you back to wedding scenes from the 70s and 80s, and you can even grab red envelopes (containing copper coins, RMB, and the grand prize—a luxury suite at the hot spring hotel). After the performance, visit the Jiangnan Twelve Scenes. At this time, you can see the daytime views of the Twelve Scenes, and on the way down the mountain, enjoy the stunning night scenery—it’s truly breathtaking! After returning from the Twelve Scenes, head to Yongquan Square for the evening activities. The first part is a drama set in the 70s and 80s, followed by a solo show by a very talented host who keeps the energy high. The highlight of the day is the bonfire party. After a full day, you’ll completely forget all your worries. Day 2: The breakfast at Yongquan Town Hotel is an absolute must. Everything you buy with copper coins in the town is available here: native chicken soup, native eggs, braised beef, and various buns and noodles, all made by the town’s farmers with no additives. This meal is incredibly satisfying! After eating, take a walk to digest, check out the comic books, or soak your feet at Jiubao Hot Spring. At 12 noon, it’s time to head home. This two-day itinerary is not tiring at all. I traveled with elderly and children, and the one-stop entertainment is very suitable. The town has shuttle buses, so if you get tired, you can take a ride to various attractions. The Twelve Scenes have a cloud ladder to climb up and a glass slide to come down, so there’s no need to worry about fatigue. Also, if you book accommodation inside the town, the hotel provides free high-speed rail pick-up and drop-off services. Besides using copper coins, you can also pay by mobile scan, but using copper coins offers a more authentic experience.
