Bring Hayao Miyazaki's spring to life.

Wander into a real-life Spirited Away; April in Tianmu Lake, Liyang is incredibly photogenic. "The warm breeze is easily recognized, and everywhere is a riot of color in spring." In this intoxicating April breeze, why not escape the hustle and bustle and head to Tianmu Lake in Liyang to encounter a spring straight out of a Hayao Miyazaki anime? 🌳 Nanshan Bamboo Sea - The Emerald Forest: Stepping into the 35,000-mu bamboo forest is like entering a dreamy green wonderland. The breeze rustles through the swaying bamboo shadows, creating a natural symphony of spring. Take the cable car and ascend slowly, weaving through the clouds and mist, taking in the lush greenery that stretches across the mountains. Every view is a healing masterpiece for the soul. Enter the Panda House, where the adorable Xing An and Hua Li are leisurely munching on bamboo, their every move melting hearts. Don't forget to visit Jiming Village deep in the bamboo forest. The ancient village with its white walls and black tiles is well-arranged and peaceful, transporting you back a thousand years in an instant. 🎡 Spring Limited - Windmills and Flower Seas: The Dutch Windmill Festival makes a grand return, transporting you to romantic Holland in a second. The colorful windmill corridor creaks and turns in the wind, as if blowing away all your worries. Giant hot air balloons stand tall, making every snapshot a fairytale masterpiece limited to spring. Have a picnic under the cherry trees and feel the romance of the petals falling on your shoulders; transform into a tea-picking maiden and experience the fun of picking spring tea by hand on the fragrant China Tea Island, collecting plenty of material for your spring vlog. 🚢 Tianmu Lake Scenery - Spring Cruise: Board an antique-style painted boat and sail leisurely on the clear waves. The green mountains are reflected on the clear lake surface, where the water meets the sky, creating a breathtaking view. Check out the romantic "Heart of the Goddess" heart-shaped building and feel the unique tenderness of Tianmu Lake. Step onto the island in the center of the lake, where lively and clever squirrel elves jump and play in the forest, as if stepping into the wonderful world of My Neighbor Totoro. 🚴‍♀️ Liyang No. 1 Highway - Chasing the Wind: Riding on Liyang No. 1 Highway is like riding through an unfolding oil painting. In the distance, the mountains rise and fall, and nearby, the rapeseed flower fields are a sea of golden yellow. The spring breeze caresses your face, bringing a sense of freedom and joy. The rainbow section is highly recommended; just press the shutter and you'll have a stunning shot that will blow up your social media. 🍱 Liyang on the Tip of Your Tongue: When you come to Liyang, you must not miss these authentic delicacies: - Tianmu Lake Casserole Fish Head: The milky white fish soup is rich and delicious. One sip will make you swoon with happiness. - Glutinous Rice with Fried Dough Sticks: Soft, glutinous, and sweet glutinous rice wrapped in crispy fried dough sticks. One bite releases a burst of carbohydrate happiness on your tongue. - Spring Bamboo Shoots with Zha Gan: Select fresh and tender spring bamboo shoots and carefully cooked Zha Gan. One bite is full of the flavors of spring. 🏨 Hidden Accommodation Recommendation: Fuyu Lakeside Starlight Hotel If you want to enjoy the ultimate artistic atmosphere while admiring the lake and mountain scenery, then you must stay at the Tianmu Lake Fuyu Lakeside Starlight Hotel. - Private Secret Realm: The hotel exclusively occupies more than 4,000 mu of lake shoreline, embracing Tianmu Lake and the distant mountains. In the morning, open the window and you can see the lake shrouded in mist, like a fairyland; at night, lie in bed and fall asleep with the starry sky. - Design Aesthetics: The minimalist architectural style is perfectly integrated with nature. Courtyards, pavilions, and floor-to-ceiling windows—every design is full of artistry. Here, you are an artist of life, and every shot is a magazine cover. - Thoughtful Service: An exclusive VIP butler provides one-on-one itinerary customization services, recommending niche treasure attractions and authentic gourmet restaurants. A heartwarming turndown gift, such as a cute Phoebe zhennan wooden bunny, is also offered every night. - Slow Living Experience: Brew a pot of tea in the pavilion and listen to the sound of the rain; swim in the starlight pool and look up at the rolling mountains; participate in rich handmade activities to fully relax and heal your body and mind. 📌 Travel Tips: - Outfit Suggestions: A light-colored dress with a straw hat is a perfect match for the bamboo sea and flower sea, with a high photo output rate. - Transportation: From Shanghai or Nanjing, the high-speed train takes only 1.5 hours to reach directly. Driving is more free and convenient, and you can stop at any time to admire the scenery along the way. Spring is short, don't waste this great time. Come to Tianmu Lake in Liyang for a spring date!
