It can't be hidden anymore! It takes only 20 minutes to drive there, this small city is more attractive than Hangzhou, and its food is not inferior to Chaozhou

There is a niche travel destination, which is one of the only 14 island counties in our country. It has a beautiful and long coastline, comparable to Hawaii. This coastal town is perfect for a self-drive trip, as it has a scenic coastal road that rivals California's Highway 1, with stunning scenery on both sides that will leave you spellbound. It truly is a hidden gem of a town, with breathtaking beauty all year round. It is Yuhuan, Taizhou, a coastal town that you may have never heard of, but is quietly and charmingly beautiful.

Ji Mountain

Upon arriving at Ji Mountain Island, the first thing that catches your eye is rows upon rows of stone houses with colorful graffiti on the walls, reminiscent of Italy's Cinque Terre. The island under the sunset has a unique beauty, with fishermen resting at sunset and fishing lights illuminating, reflecting off the ocean.

Dalu Island

Dalu Island is famously beautiful. Every summer, people from the Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai areas come here to escape the heat. The forest coverage rate here is as high as 87.5%, making it a natural oxygen bar of Yuhuan! Walking in the forest, every breath is a pleasure! In addition to the forest, you can also see rugged rocks and sea-eroded caves, which are known as the 'art hall of master rock carvings,' incredibly beautiful.

Dongsha Fishing Village

Dongsha Fishing Village is the most pristine ancient fishing village in Yuhuan. The stone houses are built along the mountain, layer upon layer, resembling a 'Potala Palace' on the sea from a distance. Walking through the alleys of the village, you can admire the colorful graffiti on the stone house walls and feel the unique artistic atmosphere and rich fishing culture. You can sit by the sea and watch the unique fish drying process; stand on the cliff edge to admire the crashing waves and wait for the sunset; or stay overnight to experience the rich fishing culture.

Lusi Reef Village

If you want to see tidal flats comparable to those in Xiapu, Lusi Reef Village is the place to go. It's simply a paradise for photographers. The fields scattered like stars, the rippling blue sea, and the busy fishermen in the tidal flats create a dreamy beauty. Occasionally, an egret skims over the sea, adding a touch of serene beauty to the whole scene.
Dalei Mountain is the highest peak in Yuhuan, with steep and towering terrain. When you reach the summit, you can see the sunrise and sea of clouds. The summit is often shrouded in mist, giving it a fairyland-like appearance with a touch of beauty in its haziness.

Xuanmen Bay National Wetland Park

When you arrive at Xuanmen Bay Wetland, you will feel as if you have come to the Netherlands. Everywhere you look, there are colorful flowers, birds soaring under the blue sky, and Dutch-style windmills, all exuding a fresh and charming atmosphere. In autumn, golden reeds sway in the wind, migratory birds skim over the grass, and the scene under the sunset is so beautiful that you can't take your eyes off it.

Kanxian Highway

Kanxian Highway is a mountain road from Kanmen to Xiandie. If you want to encounter the most beautiful scenery on this road, come in spring! When you drive through Hengkeng Village, you will pass through a sea of pink cherry blossoms, which is extremely romantic and a visual feast.

Wenling Yankeng Yuhuan Lake Greenway

Everyone who comes to Yuhuan Lake is amazed by its picturesque scenery, which is comparable to Erhai Lake. It is a green gem between Xuanmen Bay and Yueqing Bay. You can walk on the greenway, see the rippling green water, the beautiful mountains and rivers, and feel the tranquil beauty.
