Beautiful China 🇨🇳 Huai'an Journey to the West Amusement Park: A place that evokes the Journey to the West nostalgia of those born in the 80s. A Chinese-made amusement park, highly recommended for elementary school students, especially boys. The ticket price is especially worthwhile and the fun is immense 🥳. Even on a rainy day, we had a blast. The staff were very enthusiastic ❤️‍🔥 and diligently checked the equipment repeatedly. A very cost-effective amusement park 🎠.

We went late and it was a bit of a shame that the show was over, but we saw a lot of marine animals and learned a lot. There were many free entertainment facilities for children, which was a good deal. There was an interactive fountain at the door, which was fun.

You can spend two days visiting Zhou Enlai's former residence in Huai'an. There's also a nice traditional shop in Hexia Ancient Town. The overall commercial atmosphere isn't too strong, so it's worth a visit.

One of only two remaining government offices, and the site of the tragic death of Dou E, it features an exhibition of ancient torture instruments, mostly displayed using digital technology, wax figures, physical objects, and illustrations. It's a must-see for tourists in Huai'an.

The courtyard was quite unique, with some small scenic spots perfect for taking photos. We were really lucky; the weather was a beautiful, clear blue. We also learned about Wu Cheng'en's family history and life story, feeling a bit a little bit of his divine aura.

Jinshiyuan Tourist Scenic Area has a super full experience, a must for wine culture lovers! 📍Coordinates: Jinshiyuan Tourist Scenic Area ⏰Visiting time: 3-4 hours recommended 🌿Environmental atmosphere The overall planning of the scenic area is very comfortable, with green trees and water systems surrounding it. Walking on the road is as pleasant as visiting a park, without the messy feeling of general factory scenic areas. 👩💼Service experience It was very considerate from the beginning of entering the park. There were free guide maps and scenic area introduction brochures at the door. We caught up with the free tour group on the hour. The tour guide was super professional. She explained everything from the history of winemaking to the details of the process very clearly, and she would also take the initiative to answer everyone's questions, with a strong sense of interaction. The staff in the scenic area were very friendly, and they were very patient in asking for directions and consulting the location of the rest area. There is also free drinking water and clean toilets in the park, full marks for details~ ✨Special highlights 1. Super rich wine culture experience: you can visit the real winemaking workshop, watch the workers make wine in the ancient way, and observe the century-old cellar up close, and intuitively feel the truth that "wine is fragrant when it is aged". 2. Strong interactivity: There is a special wine tasting area where you can taste raw wine of different years for free, as well as a handmade winemaking experience. Wine lovers who like to drink can also buy raw wine exclusive to the scenic area! 3. Cultural creation is very attentive: the wine culture surroundings in the scenic area store are high-value and practical, from wine glasses, bookmarks to doll pendants, they are suitable for giving or keeping, and the price is not expensive. 📌Tips • It is recommended to wear comfortable shoes, the scenic area is not small, and there is a lot of walking; • You can experience the wine tasting area slowly, and the staff will explain the tips of wine tasting, which is very knowledgeable; • There may be wine performances on weekends, so it is recommended to come here on weekends Overall, whether you are interested in wine culture or just want to find a quiet and comfortable scenic spot to visit, this place is worth coming! The experience is far beyond expectations, and I have recommended it to my friends who love traveling~

The Liyun Canal Scenic Area is free, but you need a ticket for the cruise. It is recommended to take a cruise to see the night view. We bought the cruise ticket in advance, and we need to exchange it for a paper ticket first, and then queue up to get on the bus. There were too many people during the May Day holiday, and we queued for more than two hours before we got on. During this time, we had dinner at the Qifeng Pavilion, and there was a performance at the National Master Tower, so the waiting time was not so unbearable.

As the only canal transport museum in China, it's generally quite good. However, the 60 yuan guided tour is a bit too general and could be more detailed. The additional 5 yuan per person for headsets is also unreasonable.
