"Jiangyin, a county-level city, truly astonished me! It's far more prosperous and has more to offer than I ever imagined. Jiangyin's charm lies in the lively atmosphere of its old streets, the grandeur of the Yangtze River, and the stories embedded in its century-old architecture.
First, I visited the former site of the Kuomintang Jiangyin Fortress Headquarters, which is easily walkable. The Republican-era architecture is quite distinctive, and best of all, entry is free! Just a short stroll from there, you'll find the bustling pedestrian street, teeming with people and vibrant local life.
I then leisurely walked to Xingguo Temple. This was my first time seeing the Xingguo Pagoda, which is said to symbolize Jiangyin's resilient spirit. This was also free to visit.
From my hotel, I took the subway to the Jiangyin Yangtze River International Church. This Gothic-style building, with its beautiful stained-glass windows, is incredibly photogenic. During my visit, a service was taking place, which was a truly fascinating and unique experience for me (also free).
Locals recommended I visit Junshan Temple. A short taxi ride (minimum fare) took me there. Before the temple, I first entered a very authentic Taoist temple – another first for me! There were even Taoist priests chanting. A bit further from the Taoist temple lies Junshan Temple itself. It's a massive complex built into the mountain. Climbing to the top offered panoramic views of Jiangyin city, and the Yuangtong Pavilion at the summit was particularly magnificent (the Taoist temple is free, the temple charges 10 yuan).
Finally, I went to E'nbizui Park. The highlight was exploring the E'nbi Cave, which is quite long, narrow, and winding, making you feel like you're traveling through a time tunnel. Following the boardwalk, I reached the riverside observation deck, where I enjoyed views of the Jiangyin Bridge – a perfect end to the day (free). After E'nbizui, you'll find Shipyard Park. A stroll along the river here led me to the Jiangyin Yangtze River Great Protection Exhibition Hall, affectionately known as Jiangyin's 'Bruges'. It's a great spot for photos, and watching ships pass by with the river breeze is lovely. If you catch it at sunset, the river turns golden, creating an absolutely incredible atmosphere.
Jiangyin is truly a hidden gem! I was genuinely surprised by how much it had to offer on my first visit – from historical and cultural sites to natural beauty, and from delicious food to stunning scenery, every aspect was a delightful surprise. And a special shout-out to the hotel I stayed at; the one Doubao recommended was perfect! It was incredibly convenient for getting around, and the hotel staff were exceptionally warm and welcoming. The environment was beautiful, and the bed was so comfortable! I'll definitely come back if I get the chance."
