Yushan Cherry Blossom Trail, a blessing for those with claustrophobia
😵💫😵💫 At the end of March, I drove for over an hour from Suzhou to Turtle Head Isle, only to find that it was impossible to get in, and there wasn't even a place to park. After driving around all the scenic spots in Wuxi city to no avail, I decisively changed my destination and unexpectedly encountered a path lined with cherry blossoms by the city wall of Yushan in Changshu. It was such a stroke of luck, wasn't it? 😍😍😍
✅✅ This is a cherry blossom trail along the street, with the flowers in full bloom, dense trees, and few pedestrians. You can play however you want, which is a blessing for those with a fear of crowds. 👍👍 With this, why bother squeezing into crowded places? 🤪🤪🤪
✅✅ Yushan Park is just a stone's throw away, perfect for a combined visit. ~~~
📍📍 Location: Yushan Cherry Blossom Trail, next to Fucheng Gate, Yushan South Road, Changshu City
🚌🚌 Transportation: Public transportation to Changshu No.1 Middle School Station or Dianqiao Station can get you there. There are several parking lots nearby, making parking convenient and stress-free for self-driving. 👌👌👌
💰💰 Admission: Free to visit 🆓🆓🆓

Yu Mountain Ancient City Wall
Changshu ancient city has a history of more than 1700 years. The Yu Mountain city wall is a section of the Changshu city wall that runs along Yu Mountain. It is the only city wall in the southern Jiangsu region that is built upon a mountain, and is known as the 'Little Great Wall of Jiangnan'. It covers an area of 27,000 square meters, with a majestic presence and a total length of more than 1,200 meters. It features the 'Yu Mountain Gate Tower', 'Zhenhai Platform', and 'Fucheng Gate', and is equipped with battlements, horse paths, and more. From atop the wall, one can take in the panoramic view of green mountains and waters, ancient city alleys, and the harmonious blend of mountains, water, and city, showcasing the unique scenery of 'ten miles of green mountains half-encroaching into the city'.
