Ningbo, referred to as "Yong", was called "Mingzhou" before Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty.
Due to taboo on the name, it means "Hai Ding Ze Boning"
The name was changed to "Ningbo" and is still used today.
It is an important seaport city on the southeast coast.

The harvest is also great, let me
Got to know this city again

There are many unique postcards in Maokong, which can be sent to your future and see what they have to say. What would you say to your future self?
Girls can buy a pink and stylish canvas bag, which also feels great on the back.
Walking to the end of the street, I saw a roast chicken shop. It was golden, tender and fragrant, and the meat was oily. It is recommended to eat. It tastes great.
On a hot summer day, you need ice cream,
Or a glass of soda to cool down,
After eating, continue to the next stop.
The forecast for that day included rain and some cloudiness. The weather was so beautiful that there was no scorching sun.
Harley Bar and Bistro on the Bund
The Old Bund is located at the intersection of three rivers, with two cross-river bridges spanning it, and the lights are bright at night. Different from the hustle and bustle of the Bund in Shanghai and the atmosphere of neon lights, there is a free, laid-back, relaxed and fashionable style. It is very pleasant to have a drink at the bar here, enjoy the river breeze, and listen to those old songs. Leisurely. There won't be too many people, but there will be enough wine.
After appreciating the atmosphere of the Old Bund, the hotel is our last stop today. We recommend Hanting Youjia (Tianyi Square Branch) . It is in the city center, has convenient transportation, affordable prices, is hygienic and clean, and is satisfying. need. If price is not a concern, you can stay in the nearby Shangri-La. At night, the hotel's exterior walls are illuminated and very beautiful.
Day 2
The main place to check in on this day is Tianyi Pavilion, one of the three largest private libraries in the world. The other two are in Italy and the only one in China.
Tianyi Pavilion, was built in the 40th to 45th year of the Jiajing reign of the Ming Dynasty (1561-1566) by Fan Qin, the right minister of the Ministry of War of the Ming Dynasty who retired at that time Presided over the construction, covering an area of 26,000 square meters and has a history of more than 400 years. The name Tianyi Pavilion is taken from the "Heaven generates water" in the "Book of Changes". It is hoped that this pavilion will be safe from fire.
During the tour, I also learned an anecdote: When Fan Qin was old and ready to divide his property, he called his two sons, one to collect books for Tianyi Pavilion, and the other to collect 10,000 taels of silver. It was up to them to choose. The eldest son chose to collect books. My son chose silver. Fan Qin's eldest son Fan Dachong took on the important task of maintaining the library, and formulated the ancestral motto of "Books should not be separated from generation to generation, and books should not leave the pavilion" to be passed down from generation to generation.
Tianyi Pavilion's largest collection of books amounted to more than 70,000 volumes. Later, when the books were donated by the Qing Dynasty, they were plundered by the British army and stolen by the Taiping Army. For a time, the collection of books was scattered everywhere. Later, it was collected and restored one after another. After more than ten generations of descendants, it has been preserved and passed down. A strict book collection system has been formulated. Future generations must strictly abide by it, so that this classic can be famous for future generations and praised by generations.
During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, it was necessary to compile the "Sikuquanshu". Tianyi Pavilion provided more than 600 rare and rare books. It later became the model for the royal library of the Qing Dynasty, and it was quite famous for a while. It pioneered a style of book collection and had a profound impact on later generations.
Ninghai Restaurant has received many positive reviews and is on the must-eat list. Its signature dish is undoubtedly the salt and pepper shrimp. It is well-deserved, with charred meat, tender meat and full of umami flavor.
The boiled shrimp is tender and delicious, the fried sea melon seeds and roasted potatoes are also unique. The price is indeed a bit more expensive than that of Yongshang Famous Kitchen, about 400 yuan. The store also thoughtfully gave away fried dumplings and watermelon.
It was noon, and there were not many people. Although it was full, there was no need to wait for a table, which made me feel better.
It’s already half time, I’m eating and playing,
Shopping while walking, the next stop is Ningbo Museum
