Pingyao Ancient Town
When: April 2024
Where: Pingyao, Shanxi, China 平遥古城山西
Entrance: Free
Founded in 8th century BC, Pingyao Ancient Town is a complete building complex of ancient walls, temples, dwellings and shops. It covers an area of 225 hectares. You can either have a day tour and walk on the streets enjoying local food and beverages having the general idea of the place or you can stay in the hotel for 2-3 days inside the ancient town to explore each building deeply.
The entrance of the town is free but there are 22 sightseeing spots which require ticket. You can buy an entrance ticket for 123 RMB and use the same ticket everywhere for 3 days. This is convenient for those who plan to stay overnight or two nights in the town. But if you plan a day trip (which was the case for us) no need to buy the ticket. If you want to visit the specific spot, you can get a ticket at the entrance of the scenic spot.
Almost everyone visiting the town has an experience of the photoshoot with traditional costumes of Chinese minorities. #historicallandmarks #trip #china

Can’t Miss the Yellow Crane Tower in Wuhan
The Yellow Crane Tower is a magnificent landmark with rich historical significance.
The architecture is stunning, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding city and river. Unfortunately, it was a cloudy day when I went to visit but I still enjoyed the experience.
The cultural significance of the tower adds to its allure, making it a must-see destination for anyone visiting the area.
The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, providing a memorable experience.
I highly recommend a visit to the Yellow Crane Tower for anyone looking to immerse themselves in Chinese history and culture.
I highly recommend entering from the south gate so you don’t have to walk as much to get to the tower.

Best Hainan Getaway!🏖️
Best getaway in the middle of school holidays to Hainan! It was sweltering in March in Singapore but when we first landed in Haikou it was like 13 degrees! Within 7 days, we went from Sanya to Lingshui to Haikou.
Sanya:
- Best for the different types of beaches
- Accoms will be slightly more expensive
- Must go wuzhizhou but the ferry ride is very rocky for heads up
Lingshui:
- Food is the best here!
- However, becareful with navigation here. Try to use xiaohongshu to find the right navigation points to put into baidu
Haikou:
- Malls are huge and amazing! We literally spent a whole day in one of the malls and it wasn’t boring at all!#Hainan #China
Lyf by the Ascott limited in Han Zhou
Place: Lyf midtown by the Ascott limited
Location: Mid-Town, 6 Xiangmao Rd, Gongshu District, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China, 310000
A lovely upbeat, colourful hotel suited for a younger crowd with amazing amenities for travellers. Forget pools and fancy saunas, for a solo traveller lyf provides amenities we actually need. From washing machines, ironing board, clothes steamer, gyms, coworking space lyf understands their demographic well.
A comfortable stay although admittedly the quality of the rooms arent top 5 star bed linen but its still fantastic for its price
Overall stay rating 8.5/10

Rustic Old Town in Wu Zhen
Had the most amazing time at this tourist attraction in 乌镇, the views were just amazing and really you can’t get such nice views and so few people anywhere else. The whole experience was amazing because the place was pretty empty, also because we were there on a Monday morning! The place is huge too and so nice and peaceful! Got more crowded towards the afternoon time. The gondola / river boat ride is a must for the best views with least people in your shots!#wuzhen #wuzhen #China #beautiful
WOULD YOU STAY HERE FOR $15,000?👀
AHHHH WE HAD THE PLEASURE OF STAYING AT THE ATLANTIS SANYA‼️This feels like a dream and we had such a great time! The suite we stayed in was the Poseidon suite and it is actually the one and only biggest suite in the hotel! It also came with a flat screen tv but that was not the entertainment for us compared to the aquarium that was INSIDE THE ROOM! We had such a great time! If you would like to book trust you will not regret it!

#instatravel #historicallandmarks #trip #china ##zhangjiajietravel ##Changsha ##长沙
This was a city we visited when traveling to south China, we wanted to visit zhangjiajie mountains (avatar mountains) and we discovered that this place was very close to zhangjiajie, so we decided to take the train and enjoy this beautiful landmark. You’ll see a lot of people wearing the traditional clothes (they can rent it anywhere) but the landmark and old houses are authentic!
It was like visiting a different place, totally different to the rest of the cities in China.

Why I love Hong Kong! 🇭🇰
I lived next to Hong Kong for several years and I would visit almost every weekend so it’s no surprise it’s one of my favorite cities! The city is such a fantastic mix of East meets West! 🌍
In the hustle and bustle of the city you’ll find thousands of shops and restaurants. When you’re not eating or shopping, chase the Hong Kong Tram around or, better yet, ride it for around 2HKD! It’s a great way to see the city and take some cool photos! 🚋
Take a break from the city and walk up Victoria Peak! ⛰️ I’d recommend walking up rather taking the tram as there can often be a line up. The walk isn’t that bad and you’ll be rewarded with some great views at the top. Then you can take the tram back down!
I want to visit Hong Kong because I love getting lost in its concert jungle before taking a break in its fantastic nature 🌳

2 Day Itinerary in Lijiang🇨🇳
#cherryblossom2024
Yunnan Province is one of the most beautiful provinces in China and it has one of the most captivating cities in China too.
Lijiang took my heart. It such a calm and interesting city with many spots to enjoy and visit. However in this post, I would highlight 2 best places to experience and see.
1. Lijiang Ancient Town- if you want to see a 100 year old of history then coming to Lijiang ancient town is really one for the books. It is a Unesco World Heritage with old architecture of establishments. There are many shops and restaurants around so you won’t het bored.
Recommended length of visit- 3-4 hours.
2. Yulong Snow Mountain- this needs an entire day trip. I also recommend to book a package deal to ho to those mountain and everything will be taken cared of. From pick up to taking you back to your hotel, entrance tickets to the tourists spots in the mountain, cable car and of course oxygen bottles.
Please be reminded that going to the snow mountain requires you to be physically fit or you don’t have any heart conditions. The tip of the mountain which is the highlight if your trip is around 3800 meters above sea level so it is possible to experience chest tightness and breathless.

🌸Wuhan is Blooming
#cherryblossom2024
It’s spring time in Wuhan, which means that the city is blooming with beautiful flowers everywhere you go.
It’s a wonderful time to go outside, find a lake and enjoy nature. But don’t forget your camera to capture every moment because the cherry blossoms won’t be here for long.
This location can be found between two lakes in Jianghan district, West lake and Beihu lake.

City scape or scenic bliss?
Picture this: You're perched atop a skyscraper, gazing out at a bustling cityscape with lights flickering like stars below. Or, perhaps, you find solace in the tranquil embrace of nature, surrounded by the serene beauty of places like Changbai Mountain. Now, imagine having the opportunity to experience both firsthand and make the ultimate comparison. As someone longing to explore new horizons, winning a ticket to Hong Kong would grant me the chance to immerse myself in the dynamic energy of urban life while also discovering the serene allure of its surrounding landscapes. Help me make this dream a reality, and I'll share the journey with you, capturing every moment as I contrast the cityscape with the scenic bliss of Changbai Mountain.

🌸🌳🍒Blossoms in Downtown Beijing! 🏙️
#cherryblossom2024
Beijing is not only a massive metropolis; it’s also full of stunning nature, even in the heart of the city! 🏙️🪴⛲️
I spent a day strolling around the Forbidden City area, which has plenty of rivers, gardens, and (of course) cherry blossoms! 🌸🍒
Spring comes early to Beijing, which means that even as early as mid-March, the trees are bursting with cheerful pinks and vibrant greens. 🌳🌺
Personally, I think spring is Beijing’s most beautiful season. If you have the chance, definitely spend some of your spring days in Beijing!🇨🇳🌸🌹🌷

BE ABROADABLE - Nat the Expat A MUST VISIT- The Heart of Chengdu 🇨🇳
#cherryblossom2024
When you are in Chengdu especially if you are a Chinese tourist there is no way that you are missing this place as one of your must go to.
Located in the heart of the city, Tianfu Square is a massive square with a stream of tourists everyday. The flowers in this square are well maintained and super clean. There are a lot of security guards as well so expect that there will be security checks when entering the square. When it is not busy, security checks are not that strict but when it is during holidays then security checks are a must.
The square is surrounded with skyscrapers and the famous statue of Mao. There is also a shopping center under the square so you can go shopping afterwards. There are also snack shops and restaurants. With the metro stop underneath, this square is really convenient to visit.
Metro Stop: Line 1 and 2 Tianfu Square
Entrance fee: Free
Best time to visit: anytime of the day. It is nice as well at night as the buildings light up.
Enjoy!

Wuzhen Jiangnan Water Town
The first impression of Jiangnan is probably the small bridges and flowing water. Among all the ancient towns in Jiangnan, Wuzhen is the top of the ancient towns in my mind.
Blue bricks and black tiles, the alley is deep and heart-warming. Regardless of rain or shine, as long as you step here and walk around on the bluestone slabs, you will feel as if you have seen the past and present of Wuzhen.
A must-experience cruise in Wuzhen is perfect for seeing the beautiful scenery from a different angle!
The night in Xizha is completely different from the day.
Whether you are sitting quietly by the river or walking along Walking in the ancient town. Just make sure me comfortable.
