Ningbo, formerly Mingzhou in the Song Dynasty, is home to the best glutinous rice balls in China. The best place to try these treats is Cylinder Duck Dog, a breakfast restaurant established in 1926. Ningbo's local cuisine is also well known for its seafood. To experience the fishing culture and small traditional villages in this region of Zhejiang Province, we head to Li Min Village on the edge of Dongqian Lake. I recommend you go cafe hopping in this quaint area. The perfect way to explore the lake and navigate the narrow streets is by renting a bike or scooter.
Around Dongqian Lake you will also find Hanling Old Street Scenic Area and the famous art gallery.
If you're looking for the modern experience of city life, head to the Old Bund area to see the vibrant night life and streets lined with bars. This area reminded me of Shanghai.
If you're only in Ningbo for a few hours, head over to Moon Lake, also referred to as West Lake by locals. Here you can rent a duck pedal boat or relax in the tranquil gardens. From here, it's just a short walk to Ningbo Drum Tower and Gulou Pedestrian Street where you can find traditional street food and architecture.
Expat Natt's Ningbo adventure unfolds with a delightful exploration of this historic city. Ningbo, formerly known as Mingzhou, boasts the best glutinous rice balls in China, readily available at the famed Cylinder Duck Dog restaurant. The city's culinary scene is renowned for its fresh seafood. A journey to Li Min Village, nestled by Dongqian Lake, offers a glimpse into the region's fishing culture and charming traditional villages. Natt recommends exploring the area's cafes and suggests renting a bike or scooter for easy navigation. Dongqian Lake's beauty extends to the Hanling Old Street Scenic Area and a captivating art gallery. For a taste of modern city life, the Old Bund area, reminiscent of Shanghai, offers a vibrant nightlife. A shorter trip could include Moon Lake (West Lake), where you can enjoy a relaxing boat ride or stroll through tranquil gardens, followed by a visit to the Ningbo Drum Tower and Gulou Pedestrian Street, perfect for experiencing traditional street food and architecture.
