If you want a taste of old Chongqing, the best place to begin is Chaotian Gate, the only remaining city gate and Chongqing`s Chief wharf on the Jialing River. Traffic is intense with freight and passenger ship docking day and night.

I used to passed by this restaurant but havent tried it, but it looks very nice.

Mochou Lake and Xuanwu Lake are two famous lakes in Nanjing, local Nanjing people all know them.  Which one is better? Which one does local people like more?
I`ve been thinking about this for a long time, and i`ve been asking many people about this question, and the answer is Xuanwu Lake win.  Many people like Xuan Lake, and they also think Xuanwu Lake is famous and more interesting than Mochou Lake. An important factor that Xuanwu Lake can win is it have a around lake road for people to walk around, to enjoy the beautiful views and fresh air.

As myself, i like Xuanwu Lake too. :)

People in Yangzhou are very nice, they will try to tell you all about Yangzhou where and what is the best , even though their English level is not good, but you can still feel their warm and hospitality.

As an example in Ye Chun Teahouse, when we don't know what to order, some local people helped us to recommend what to order, and an old man invited us to try some food he ordered, and explain what`s is it,  and what it made from, really nice person. I still remember that.

Anyway, i had a great time in Yangzhou and hope one day can go back again.

Hi

I was looking for such places for a while, thanks for sharing, i definitely will go and have a look.

I have to say, roast duck is one of my favorite food in China, crispy, and yummy~~~~

Although Chongqing`s major tourist attraction, the Three Gorges is now being inundated by waters from the Three Gorges Dam, the city has its own inherent charm and the region is worth exploring.

Known for its spicy food and hot-tempered people, Chongqing, with its mountains and fog and its bubbling hotpots has secured a place in the Chinese imagination.

We went to Orchid Pavilion last year since it`s one stop of Luxun Home town trip.  Before we went there, i thought it`s just a normal garden, but when we there in the afternoon,Orchid Pavilion gave a really good impression.

Walking by the pool`s side, and the goose swam happily, it made us happy two.  With the smell of orchid, i felt so relax and comfortable due to the smell of orchid have that function,  it kills all the tired off.

I highly recommend Orchid Pavilion in Shaoxing.

Wow, it looks so nice, i dreaming of about this place, in Lijiang, only have you and the Nature, peaceful, the air is clean and fresh, no cars, no noise, i like this nature life a lot. And if you sick of city life,  Lijiang will be a good place to go in China.

I see you have Zhouzhuang, Zhujiajiao, Xitang, Wuzhen.... a lot of water towns, which one is the best? Do you know?

It`s the best way to have the seafood when you at Haikou, if you think you can have a better meal at a fancy reasturant or hotel, i will say you might be wrong, and you might be rapped off by them.

The normal seafood market and the restaurants near it will bring you the best i believe it. You can choose the saefood you like, then choose any one of the restaurants next to it, they will cook for you only charge some fee for cooking.



Have fun!
