    Staying in a traditional earthen building with modern facilities, it's comfortable, pleasant, and elegant. The butler provides attentive one-on-one service, always ready to assist. It's a rural tourism experience that meets modern five-star service standards. I would definitely recommend it to friends!

    It's truly an island that even Zuo'er would visit for a photoshoot. If you love the azure sea, the free breeze, and the delicious food, you absolutely must visit Dongshan Island! It's truly stunning! 👀 Route: Nanmen Bay - Sufengshan Ring Road - Zuo'er Rooftop - Jinluan Bay - Nanyu Double-Sided Sea - Green Lighthouse, the filming location for "Your Wedding" 🏠 Accommodation 1️⃣ Tongling Town: Concentrated food and great value. 2️⃣ Jinluan Bay: Perfect for watching the sunrise, high-rise sea view apartments with mirror-like beaches right out the window. 3️⃣ Nanmen Bay: Many sea view rooms, close to tourist attractions and popular check-in spots. 👊 Food When I went there, I didn't plan anything; I just randomly bought things along the way. I bought about three restaurants, and when I got back to the hotel, I didn't miss any of them! I ate them all!!! If you're really afraid of making a mistake, don't bother with a guide; just ask a local to recommend a few of their favorite places to eat. 🙋 Travel Options: 1. Self-driving car + electric scooter 2. High-speed rail + Didi + electric scooter (This area is perfect for exploring and eating on an electric scooter.)

    Zhangzhou Volcano Island Resort is a truly unique place, boasting both volcanic geological wonders formed over millions of years and popular photo spots perfect for online photo-taking. [Scenery] Natural Wonders - Black Volcanic Rocks: Formed by a volcanic eruption 3 million years ago, the impact of the tidal wave is breathtaking. - "Sea and Mountain Oath Terrace": Influencer Spot - Monument Valley Maze: A pink castle. Rainbow Mountain: A multicolored mountainscape in macaron hues. Beachfront Facilities: A slide, hot air balloons, a bird's nest, a lighthouse, and more. Experiences - Geological Museum: Learn about volcanoes and feature a simulated eruption. [Fun] Rent an electric scooter to travel around the island and catch some seafood at low tide. Transportation: The scenic area is large and scattered, so it's recommended to purchase a sightseeing bus ticket (20/30 yuan) or rent an electric scooter (approximately 50 yuan/hour). Itinerary Planning: The scenic area is large and the attractions are scattered, so plan at least half a day to a full day. As soon as you enter the scenic area, we recommend buying a sightseeing bus ticket or renting a small electric scooter to save time and effort walking. Photography Tips: Time: The light is softer after 4 PM, especially before sunset, when the backlight makes your hair glow, creating a wonderful atmosphere. Attire: Wearing solid, contrasting colors like white or blue will enhance your photos in front of the pink Monument Valley and the colorful Rainbow Mountain. Tips: Don't just focus on popular camera spots; explore some beautiful corners on your own, such as the combination of pink walls and foliage in Monument Valley or the rainbow path leading from Rainbow Mountain to the beach. Zooming out will help capture the atmosphere more easily. Suitable for: This is a great spot for couples or photo-loving couples.

    Caidie Bay is located between Jinluan Bay and Maluan Bay. Before it was developed into "Colorful Butterfly Bay", it was little known. But its beach is very charming. It is a small beach. Because there are small islands on both sides of the sea, some people say that the whole bay looks like a lake. The Internet celebrity train is worth experiencing.

    Lingtong Pass Scenic Area·Southern Fujian Wonderland] Lingtong Mountain is famous for its "dangerous peaks, strange rocks, clear springs, and floating clouds". The towering rocks are like immortals writing, and the sea of ​​clouds at the Lion Peak at an altitude of 1,287 meters is particularly shocking. The ancient hanging temple Lingtong Temple is built on the cliff, and the wonder of "bead curtain turning into rain" can be seen on rainy days. The earthen building homestay at Qingyun Guest House offers authentic Hakka cuisine. It is recommended to try the stewed chicken with red mushrooms. Tips: It is easy to encounter the sea of ​​clouds after the rain. The hiking trail is steep and requires non-slip shoes. The ticket price is 60 yuan, including the glass plank road.

    I went to Zhangzhou for a trip and came to the Banyueshan Hot Spring Hotel. The Banyueshan Hot Spring Town is located at the intersection of the Southern Fujian Golden Triangle, which is Xiazhangquan. It is very close to Xiamen. I saw that the hotel also has a shuttle bus to Xiamen. I heard that there are more than 50 hot spring pools in the public hot spring area. Because our room has an independent hot spring pool, we didn't go out to soak. It is said to be a real hot spring, with a water temperature of 58 degrees. It is a high-strontium soda hot spring and is weakly alkaline.
