Description
The Zhuyuwan Scenic Spot is located on the side of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal to the east of Yangzhou City. Therefore, there are curves ( means wan in Chinese) and in history, there were also villages with cornels (Zhuyu in Chinese), hence the name Zhuyuwan. Nowadays, the scenic spot integrates a zoo and a botanical garden. There are not many out-of-town tourists, mainly locals. They will bring their kids to see animals, have picnics, and enjoy the spring. There is a water-subduing tower in the town in the north. You can take a walk on the footpath along the canal in the scenic spot, looking at the boats sailing on the river with winds breezing.
