Weekend Outing with Kids|Two-day and One-night Guide to Xiuyan, a Hidden Gem

I was dragged to Xiuyan, Anshan by my parents. Before departure, my friend asked me if it was fun, I said I didn't know, the main purpose was to accompany them~ But I was the one who couldn't stop taking pictures! I was also the one who shared the photos in various friend groups! I want to visit this hidden gem more times while it's not crowded! - Location: Xiuyan Manchu Autonomous County, Anshan ⏰Time: 3 hours from Shenyang 🚗Itinerary: Super practical to avoid pitfalls! Day1: Depart from Shenyang—Xiuyan Water Lane—Lunch at Non-Heritage Qianbao Mutton Soup—Visit the Giant Jade Body—Pick up stones—Dinner at Chengdong Bighead Carp Restaurant—Rest at the hotel Day2: Visit the morning market—Yutong Jade Culture Museum—Shunyi Small Pot City-Return to Shenyang (For mountain climbing to see maple leaves, go directly to Longtan Bay on the second day) - 【Travel tips】 ⚠This trip includes elderly people, we took it slow, for key points to avoid pitfalls, see below⬇ 1⃣Water Lane ticket 80r, ferry 10r, awning boat 30r🅿Parking is free, you can camp by the river⛺You can barbecue🍖! The National Day ticket🎫is slightly expensive, the scenery is more, less for children to play, like to take a boat, walk various bridges… 2⃣It's nice to take photos in Hanfu and cheongsam in Water Lane, the counter-current river is rare, I took the ferry bamboo raft, didn't take the awning boat, it's very relaxing to take a walk~ Not many people! 3⃣Visit the Giant Jade Body in Hada Monument Town (Picture 9) Digging for mines on the small road before going up the mountain, picking up treasures~ I've been immersed… I'm fascinated and said I want to get rich when I come back to wash the stones, I found some transparent ones, they look great in the fish tank! 4⃣About the restaurant: Wait for 3-4 tables at Non-Heritage Qianbao Mutton Soup, tendon pancake! Mutton soup! Fried lamb chops! Chengdong Bighead Carp Restaurant recommends choosing one of fish/chicken/silkworm pupae, otherwise the bill is slightly expensive! A shop with a brand that can't be seen clearly, there are many cars at the door… Make a reservation in advance! The portion is large and not suitable for two people, it's more suitable for family meals~ Shunyi Small Pot City is a god-like shop, featuring braised pork, green bean pot stickers and potatoes, I prefer green bean pot stickers and potatoes🥔! The overall price is not expensive~ 5⃣Go to the mountain goods morning market for the morning market, there are local mushrooms, green dates~ If you like jade, you can join the jade morning market, which is almost the same as buying goods 6⃣Yutong Jade Culture Museum, ticket🎫56r, if you particularly like it, it is recommended to ask for an explanation! I stayed here for more than 2 hours, the group of Eighteen Arhats (see picture) is simply the eye-catching package of the museum 7⃣It is recommended to take a walk up the mountain on the rockery behind the museum, it is said to be made of jade, some steps can see the green jade material inside, walk around when it's time to turn 8⃣On the way back from the museum, you will pass Huaxi Town, which has a Jiangnan style, free🆓, you can stroll around on the way back, commercialization has not yet started, it is not recommended to go specifically~ 9⃣This time I regret not going to Longtan Bay, I have arranged to go to see the maple leaves🍁 in the middle and late of the month I can't write anymore, ask in the comment section~
