Yuzhang Ancient Prefecture, Hongdu New City - Nanchang, an Underrated Thousand-Year City

Recommended Attractions: Tengwang Pavilion 18:30-22:30 is the recommended time to visit. Absolutely beautiful after the lights come on. Adult tickets 50 yuan, student tickets 25 yuan. FREE if you can recite "Preface to the Tengwang Pavilion"! If you don't want to go inside, navigate to the South Gate Visitor Center - this spot is perfect for photos. Walk along the riverside to enjoy the night view and see the Twin Star Towers across the river. Eight One Square Recommended to visit around 8 PM when the lights turn on and the atmosphere becomes magical. You can buy a small red flag for 1 yuan in the square for photos - looks very patriotic! Nanchang Star Ferris Wheel The tallest Ferris wheel in China and third tallest in the world at 160m! A landmark of Nanchang! One rotation takes about an hour and a half. Take photos with the Ferris wheel at Mixc Plaza - looks great. Food Recommendations: Ban Fen (Mixed Rice Noodles): The soul of Nanchang breakfast. Smooth and chewy rice noodles with fragrant spicy sauce - super satisfying with every bite. Waguan Soup: Nutritious, diverse varieties, rich and flavorful. Have a bowl and you'll be energized all day. White Sugar Cake: Soft and chewy with a layer of white sugar coating - sweet but not greasy. Poyang Lake Crayfish: Tender meat with delicious spicy flavor that's very satisfying to eat. Accommodation Suggestions: Stay in either Honggutan District or Donghu District. Both have convenient transportation and are close to attractions. Honggutan has beautiful night views while Donghu has more of old Nanchang's local atmosphere.
