10 Days in Huaibei
Ten days spreads the city week and adds two honest neighbor days — Xuzhou's Han tombs in Jiangsu and Huangcangyu forest across in Xiao County.
Quick Answer
Is 10 days enough for Huaibei?
10 days lets you go beyond Huaibei's core into neighborhoods, food markets, and one or two day trips at a relaxed pace.

10-day Huaibei itinerary at a glance
Use our full Huaibei travel guide as the base and adapt it to 10 days. Keep the city's three signature attractions as the backbone; fill the rest with neighborhood walks, food markets, and an easy day trip.
Arrival, Xiangshan & Museum
The 340-meter hill in the city center carries the Xiantong temple, first recorded in the Western Jin year 284; the museum doubles as the Grand Canal gallery, hung with Liuzi finds.

Liuzi Canal Site & Nanhu
The 1999 dig that bared a Song stone wharf and Tang-Song shipwrecks put Liuzi on the Grand Canal's 2014 World Heritage list; Nanhu, some 20 minutes away, is a coal-subsidence lake turned wetland park.

Shuoxi Lake & Longji Ridge
The newest of the subsidence lakes sits at Duji's edge with a boardwalk loop; Longji's wooded ridge makes an easy afternoon climb a short hop east.

Linhuan Teahouse Day
About 35 km south, Linhuan pours teahouse tea beside walls rammed over 2,000 years ago; the December 1948 campaign headquarters at Wenchang Palace sits in the same town — take the slow lunch.

Shuangduiji & Stone Street
December 1948 was the Shuangduiji phase of the Huaihai campaign — the memorial hall and cemetery record it plainly — and Suixi's stone street, a few hundred meters of early-Republican shopfronts, closes the day.

Mining Park & Pomegranates
The mining park explains the pits that filled the city's lakes; at Liuyuan village, Ming-Qing pomegranate trees — some centuries old — still set fruit in the autumn.

Huaibei Rest Day
A slow day — morning steps on Xiangshan, a canalside afternoon and an early night before the neighbor days.
- huaibei xiangshan park
Xuzhou Day (Jiangsu)
An honest cross-province day, about an hour by rail north — the Lion Mountain Chu-king tomb and its terracotta guard at the Han-Culture park, then the old merchant courtyards of Hubu Hill.

Huangcangyu Day (Suzhou, Anhui)
Labeled honestly — the forest park lies across the border in Xiao County, Suzhou prefecture — an easy day of wooded ravines and a temple courtyard lunch before the short ride back.
- suzhou anhui huangcangyu
Markets & Departure
A market breakfast, a last lap of Xiangshan's steps and the train out.
