Lu Xun's Shaoxing, the yellow wine of Jiangnan! This city hides the most authentic spirit and slight intoxication of the Chinese people

🌿【Shaoxing's summer tastes like yellow wine popsicles in Jiangnan!】 🔥 Cooler than an air-conditioned room! Escape into the ink-wash town depicted by Lu Xun and enjoy a 25°C summer. Here, summer is the cicada chirping shattered by the black-awning boats and the reflections on the water🛶, the bowl of chilled Taidiao wine at Kong Yiji Tavern🍶, the dappled sunlight filtering through the soap pod trees in Baicao Garden🌳, the Song dynasty poetry rain suddenly falling into your collar during a night tour of Shen Garden💦…… ✨【In Shaoxing, this is how summer should be spent】 ✅ Be a scholar in the morning Step on the bluestone slabs of Sanwei Study, touch the desk where Lu Xun carved the character "early," eat freshly fried stinky tofu with mung bean soup by the Bazi Bridge ✅ Get drunk like a wine lover in the afternoon Yellow wine milk tea × yellow wine popsicles × yellow wine pudding Even the ice cream carries the aroma of wine! At Xianheng Hotel, have a plate of fennel beans with chilled Huadiao wine ✅ Transform into an ancient person on a night tour Listen to the Yue opera "Hairpin Phoenix" at Shen Garden Carry a lantern on Cangqiao Straight Street to find the old man's creamy xiaopan Ride a hand-pulled boat through the river lit by thousands of lights 📸 Social media captions are ready: "Shaoxing's summer, is the yangmei soaked in a jar of yellow wine, is the moon swaying on the black-awning boat."_ 💡【Cooling tips】 ✔️ Must-try: Cool off at Donghu Cliff / DIY calligraphy fan in the hometown of the Sage of Calligraphy ✔️ Hidden experiences: Early morning tea customers at 4 a.m., local breakfast on Xixiao Road ✔️ Outfit suggestion: New Chinese-style shirt + oil-paper umbrella (great for photos!) 🌟 While the whole country is under a 40°C heat warning, Shaoxing is using a jar of chilled Huadiao wine to brew the summer of Jiangnan into a slightly intoxicated poem.
