Half-day Tour of Dezhou

Dezhou, a city known as the "Gateway to the Capital," is not only famous for its Dezhou Braised Chicken, but also has many niche and exciting tourist attractions and delicacies waiting for you to explore. Dongzi Garden: No ticket is required. It is the first choice for lovers of Confucian culture and ancient architecture. Please pay attention to the opening hours to avoid missing the opportunity to visit. The Dongzi Reading Platform and other attractions in the garden will give you an in-depth understanding of Dong Zhongshu and Confucian culture. The stone bridge, ancient buildings, and green willows and water outside the garden are especially beautiful in good weather. Dezhou Museum: You can enter the museum by making a reservation and scanning your ID card. This is the best place to learn about the history and culture of Dezhou. We especially recommend visiting the Civilization Relics Exhibition Hall, where the black pottery and porcelain kiln collections of Dezhou are breathtaking. Please note that the museum is closed on Mondays and is open from 9:00 to 17:00. Changhe Park: Located near the museum, it is about a ten-minute walk away. The park is vast, with a lake and reed slope in the center, making it a great place for nature lovers. However, it takes some time to walk to the reed slope, so we recommend that visitors with plenty of time go there. Food recommendations: • Dezhou Braised Chicken: You can find braised chicken shops everywhere on the street. We recommend trying brands such as Xiangsheng Braised Chicken, Cuiji Braised Chicken, and Liji Braised Chicken. Golden Soup Braised Chicken is suitable as a gift, and other stores also provide vacuum express delivery services. • Yellow Soup Noodles: A specialty of Dezhou, the curry-flavored soup base is paired with chewy noodles for a unique flavor. We recommend Nie's Noodles, which is close to the train station and has an authentic taste. Business hours are from 6:00 to 10:00 in the morning and from 11:00 to 13:00 at noon. Please pay attention to the time to avoid missing it. Itinerary suggestions: Starting at 12:00 noon, you can first taste braised chicken at any braised chicken shop on the road, and then go to Nie's Noodles to enjoy yellow soup noodles. After that, you can visit Dongzi Garden, Dezhou Museum, and Changhe Park in turn. The whole itinerary is leisurely, and you can finish it around 5:00 pm. Luggage storage: There are many small shops and restaurants outside the train station that provide luggage storage services, which is convenient for your travel. Dezhou, a charming city, is waiting for you to discover more surprises!
