2025 Danyang Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

A famous mountain in Danyang that even children can easily climb I climbed Jebibong Peak in Wolaksan For reference, it is a mountain with an easy difficulty level that I, who do not climb often, could climb without much difficulty. Nevertheless, the pine trees between the rocks and the spectacular view of Chungjuho Lake are beautiful, making it a great mountain for taking pictures. 📍Danyang Wolaksan Jebibong Peak #DanyangTravel #Hiking #Wolaksan

A short trail is enough for a round trip of 40-45 minutes. However, if you want to enjoy nature in between, about an hour would be enough. Traveling alone and meeting myself quietly can be dangerous for a woman alone, and traveling alone is not as easy as you might think. However, this place is a great place for solo travel. While looking at the iron nets installed here and there to protect humans and nature, I felt like we were being protected, but the plants were locked in a prison. On the contrary, I had a lot of thoughts looking at the facilities installed to prevent people from tearing or damaging them. The theme of nature and humans. And by existing in it like this, nature coexists… It seems to be a comfortable place that allows me to take a deep breath. I often see people walking alone here. A place I definitely recommend to solo travelers. #Jando-gil Danyang #Jando-gil Travel

#TravelChina Baishuihe Lake (Blue Moon Valley) is very beautiful and magnificent, worthy of being a 5A-level tourist attraction. The water in the lake flows from the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain where the snow melts. It is very cold. The color of the water in the lake is very beautiful. The view contrasts with the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. It is another impressive place to visit. Another highlight is probably taking a photo with a baby yak. ​​It is very cute and not cranky at all. Standing still costs 50 yuan. If you have time, if you want to walk around or don't want to walk, there are golf carts available. The distance of the lake is about 3 kilometers. Another thing that I noticed is that many couples like to come here to take pre-wedding photos. No one is afraid of the cold. They are very full. Another thing I would like you to try is the yak milk yogurt. It is delicious and has a good taste. There are rest stops and restaurants. There is also roast chicken. #Lijiang #TravelChina #BaishuiheLake #bluemoonvalley

Jiuli Ancient Street: It was the fiefdom where Ji Zha, a wise man in the Spring and Autumn Period, abandoned his home and devoted himself to farming. After Ji Zi died, he was buried here. His four sons settled here to guard the tomb and gradually formed a village. It is recorded that there were more than a hundred boiling wells in Jiuliyuan. The water in the wells was either clear or turbid, and the sound of boiling continued day and night. There are six boiling wells, three clear and three turbid, each with a different taste. Jiuliji River Ancient Bridge, also known as Naihe Bridge, is located on the old course of Xiangcao River during the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. It was first built in the second year of Zhizheng in the Yuan Dynasty and was rebuilt into a stone arch bridge during the Jingtai period of the Ming Dynasty (1451). It is simple and elegant and has been well preserved to this day.

Wanshan Pagoda: Originally called Wanshou Pagoda, it was built during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty and completed in the tenth year of Chongzhen (1637). The tower is 48.65 meters high and has seven floors. The exterior of the tower is octagonal, and the interior is square, staggered up and down. The tower body shrinks gradually from bottom to top, with an iron pagoda top, a covered bowl at the bottom, a dew-receiving plate and a wheel at the top, a canopy at the top, and a copper vase at the top. The eaves of the tower are made of several layers of bricks, with wooden rafters underneath, supported by brackets and bells hanging from them.

Good to travel

I was really nervous before coming here. However, when I arrived, I was pleasantly surprised! The scenery here is so beautiful, I’m so happy! 🚗【Traffic Guide】 It would be more convenient to come here by car. But be aware that getting a taxi for the return trip might be a bit difficult. If you really can't get a taxi, don't worry. You can first locate a coffee shop or a crowded place in a nearby town, which will increase your chances of getting a taxi. Therefore, you must plan your transportation route in advance before you come, so that your journey can be smoother. 🌟【Special Experience】 This used to be a mine, and later a lake was formed naturally. It is truly a magical masterpiece of nature! If you go early in the morning, there will be almost no one there and you can enjoy the tranquility all by yourself. Sitting by the lake, feeling the breeze on your face, listening to the water gently lapping against the shore, the comfort is truly indescribable. It seems as if the whole world has quieted down, and only I am integrated with this beautiful nature. It is really wonderful! 👍【Recommendation reason】 If you want to see some unusual scenery, this place is definitely worth a try. The scenic area is not big, but it is quiet and sparsely populated, making it very suitable for friends who want to relax and get away from the hustle and bustle. Here, you can enjoy the beauty of nature to your heart's content without being disturbed by too many people, allowing you to truly calm down and feel the tranquility and beauty. 💡【Tips】 Regarding transportation, I really want to emphasize again that it is very important to prepare the route in advance. In addition, please remember to bring a power bank, otherwise it will be troublesome if your phone runs out of battery! Of course, you should take photos to record such beautiful scenery at any time. Also, there are no small shops nearby, so it is best to prepare some water and food with you, so that you can replenish your energy at any time while enjoying the beautiful scenery, making your travel experience more perfect. Moreover, the scenic spot is free of charge, don’t you feel like you’ve made a profit! Such a great place, come and check it out!

Danyang! This newly opened mao cai restaurant is so delicious! The mao cai restaurant newly opened in Danyang Wuyue is really fragrant. The roast duck skin soaked in soup is full of toughness. The duck meat is tender and juicy! The overall taste is not very spicy but it is very appetizing~ There are a lot of ingredients in their mao cai! The tiger skin poached egg is a must-order! I love the flowing heart! Their beef is tender and juicy, sprinkled with sesame seeds, it is even more fragrant, and the instant noodles in the pot are very good! After eating, you can have a bowl of red bean tofu flower to relieve greasiness. Sisters who like to eat mao cai, close your eyes and rush~ Store name: Yichuan Mao Cai·Mao Roast Duck Address: 4th Floor, Danyang Wuyue Plaza

🚗 No. 999 Fuxing Road, Danyang, JI 212300 🚗 This time I happened to be playing in Zhenjiang, and I thought of coming to Danyang to get a pair of glasses, and by the way, participate in the Marriott points giveaway event and stay at this hotel. Overall, it feels okay, after all, it's just a bit more expensive than chain hotels, much better than the loft experience. 400 yuan can get you 5000 points, so the cost is not high. 🚗 Danyang city is not very big, the hotel is close to the Golden Eagle and Baibai commercial circles, and it's about 2km from the train station. The breakfast is very average, and there is a small gym. The room configuration is also complete, although it was upgraded, it really didn't feel any different. It feels like there's not much to do in Danyang, if you want to get glasses, you can come and play for a day or half a day, haha.

During the National Day holiday, I must drive my ID6 out for a stroll, free highways, cheap electricity rounded up is almost free. I visited Danyang Glasses City during the National Day holiday, which is a shopping and entertainment center themed around glasses. This city offers endless choices and fun for glasses enthusiasts. There are hundreds of glasses shops in the Glasses City, offering a variety of glasses styles and brands. From fashionable sunglasses to myopia glasses, no matter what type of glasses you need, you can find it here. I spent a lot of time trying on different styles of glasses in various shops, and finally found a new pair of glasses that I like. In addition to shopping, Glasses City also offers various entertainment activities. I participated in a glasses making workshop and made a pair of glasses frames by myself, which was an interesting experience. In addition, there are glasses-themed art exhibitions and performances in Glasses City, allowing visitors to have a deeper understanding of the history and culture of glasses. Speaking of accommodation, I chose to stay at the Durian Candy Hotel (Danyang Glasses City High-speed Railway Station) next door, which is very cost-effective. First, free parking, second, free breakfast with a variety of options, the price is very beautiful under such circumstances of the National Day, plus I quite like the decoration style, the hygiene is also very good, it is definitely the first choice for travel!!! In general, Danyang Glasses City is a unique tourist destination. Whether you are interested in glasses or not, you can find fun here. I had a great time here and also found a fashionable new pair of glasses. This trip left me with wonderful memories.

This is a high-speed rail station in Danyang, Jiangsu Province. It is an intermediate station on the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail linking Beijing and Shanghai. It is about 7 km from the city center, and takes about 15 minutes by car. It is a small station with 2 platforms and 4 tracks, 2 of which are through tracks. As with other high-speed rail stations, there is only one ticket gate for boarding and disembarking, just like other high-speed rail stations. Ticket gates are separate for each train, so you will have to wait in the waiting room until you are called. The square in front of the station is vast, and there are no shops or other facilities in the surrounding area. The shops in the waiting room are also closed, so it is safer to eat and shop in the city. #China #ChinaTrip #ChinaTourism #JiangsuProvince #High-speedRail
