This city is especially beautiful in spring - cherry blossoms and magnificent landscapes attract tourists not only from China, but also from all over the world.
Wuxi Cherry Blossom Festival
Yuantouzhu is a peninsula on the northwestern shore of Lake Taihu and is the most beautiful place on the lake. In China, poets call Yuantouzhu "a place more beautiful than heaven."
To see the cherry blossoms bloom, you must visit the Changchun Bridge. It is built in the style of the Yudaiqiao Bridge located in the Yiheyuan Imperial Gardens in Beijing. Blooming sakura on both sides of the bridge is recognized as one of the most beautiful in the world. In spring, cherry blossoms envelop the bridge, so walking across the bridge, you can imagine as if you are a character from a beautiful landscape painted by a great artist.
Sakura valley
In Yuantouzhu, there is a "Sakura Valley" where there is a temple with stunning views. The temple was built in traditional Chinese style. Climbing to the very top, you can admire 30,000 flowering trees. From above, the sakura resembles a lot of pink clouds - an indescribable beauty!
Sakura mail
There is also a so-called Sakura Post in Yuantouzhu. Here you can write down your wish on a small piece of paper and hang it on the bell. And every time the bell will ring in the wind. You can also buy a postcard with a picture of sakura, write a wish on it and send it to the person you miss.
You can go boating on the lake. The boat sails past many flowers, so you can fully experience all the romance of spring.
In the evening, when it gets completely dark, you will have a completely different view - bright lights and cherry blossoms look even more romantic and beautiful!
Spring has already arrived and if you still haven't found the perfect date spot then come to Wuxi!
