Yangzhou

Yangzhou is a prefecture-level city in central Jiangsu, China. Sitting on the north bank of the Yangtze, historically, Yangzhou is one of the wealthiest cities in China, known at various periods for its great merchant families, poets, artists, and scholars. Its name (lit. "Rising Prefecture") refers to its former position as the capital of the ancient Yangzhou prefecture in imperial China. Once a major stop for the salt trade, it's also known for gardens, Islamic relics and ancient shrines.

Wonderful Help!

I’ve had many wonderful trips planned with the help of Candy. Having only travelled mostly within North America, or to predominately English areas of Europe, she helped me be “lost in translation” and be much more comfortable with it. Guiding me on some helpful apps and travel tricks upon arriving really made for an enjoyable trip – as long as I kept my phone and external battery charged over night, but that is another story. Her support is greatly appreciated...
