Gangyuan in Yancheng is the beef-noodle shop on the city tourism bureau’s own map of the port area. Its hours are not confirmed, so check on the day. Yancheng’s milk-tea street, also on the map, is nearby.
- Short enough to be certain of: 1 hr 30 min door to door.
- Reachable on foot from the berth, so no timetable can strand you.
- 1 hr 30 min door to door needs a 3.5-hour call: a 2–3 hour stop cannot hold it. Pick something closer instead.

Beef noodles at Gangyuan and your ship
Both pins on one map, so the distance is a fact rather than a feeling.
Where the 1 hr 30 min goes
The hour before all-aboard is not in this bar; it is already set aside. The minutes are our estimates from timetables and maps, not timed on the ground.
If your ship is late, cut the 45 min in the middle. Never cut the hour at the end.
What to put beside it
Each of these still lands you back aboard with the hour to spare.
