Pingtan Wandering Guide [Poetry pages flipped by the sea breeze, old times inside the stone house]

📖🌴【Wedge】 🌊⛵️When the wind from the East Sea wrinkles the skirt of Pingtan, this island floating on the east coast of Fujian becomes a book of poetry soaked by sea water. The fluorescence of blue tears is its rhyme, the windmill and stone house are its ancient imagery, and you, just with a slow soul, touch the breath of every grain of sand. 🌴🌴🌴🌴 📷【Must-see attraction】——Pingtan’s unique solitude and romance Tannan Bay (Aoqian Town, Pingtan Comprehensive Experimental Zone) The 13-kilometer-long Crescent Silver Beach has water as clear as broken jade. At 5 a.m., sit on the terrace of the Whale Joy Blue Tears Cafe and wait for a sunrise to dye the sea gold leaf. At low tide, the beach paint is covered with shells and reflections of fishing boats, a mirrored secret place kept privately by photographers. Beigang Cultural and Creative Village (Beigang Village, Liushui Town) The stone house complex is like scattered piano keys, playing the legend of "Stones Will Sing". It’s recommended to tap a wave-shaped piece of copper in the “Travel in the Wind” craft workshop, or drill into the foyer of “Old Chai Coffee” and watch fishermen mend their fishing nets through wooden window frames. Changjiang O Windmill Field (Changjiang O, Baiqing Township) Giant white windmills spread along the coastline, like a swarm of giants watching over the ocean. At dusk, orange-pink clouds wrap around the silhouette of a windmill, perfect for riding a mint-colored electric car (rental: Dragon King Head Beach Entrance), chasing the evening breeze along the Ring Road. Elephant Nose Bay (Jianmin Sand Dam, Aodong Town) The “sea elephant trunk” that is revealed only at low tide requires a drone to get a full view. Stepping barefoot across a soggy sandbar, it’s like strolling on the bridge that leads to the Sky Mirror. East Sea Wonderland · Immortal Well (Southern Foot of Wangye Mountain in Liushui Town) A natural shaft surrounded by black volcanic rocks, the waves roar like thunder. Standing on the observation deck on a rainy day, watching the mist rising from the sea, it seems like a dragon girl is coming on the waves. 🏨 [Habitat Guide] - Sleep with the sound of the waves 🌙 Upscale · Poetic habitat ► (Waiting for the Wind to Come to Bed and Breakfast) (No. 108, Beigang Village, near Huandao East Road) Cliff-side pure white architecture, 270° sea view floor-to-ceiling windows with hammocks, the waves are a natural lullaby during the overnight stay. The room rate is about 800-1500 yuan/night. 🏨🌿 Mid-range · Literary and artistic accent ► (Stone Club Singing Youth Hostel) (32 North Harbor Village) Renovated from a century-old stone house, the terrace overlooks the windmill field. Multi-person beds start at $80, queen rooms start at $300, including breakfast and supper seafood congee. 🏨🛋 Economy · Fireworks World ► (Pingtan Blue Tears Inn) (Building 7, West Navigation Bincheng, Tancheng Town) minutes walk to Dragon King Head Beach, simple ins style, double room 150 yuan / night. The boss will give you a hand-drawn map and a sea strategy. 🍔 [Tongue Tide] - A gentle blitz of seafood 🍲 Must-try flavor {Eight Treasures Fried Cake}: The intertwining of groundnut powder and seafood, the version of "Hai Tan Specialty Snacks" (98 Longfeng Road) is excellent. ►{Salty Rice Time} (Time to Run): The soft and glutinous crust wrapped in shrimp seaweed filling, recommended "Thirteen Sisters Salty Rice Time Store" (No. 12 Wanbaozhuang Road, Tancheng Town). ► {Oyster Pan-fried}: Crispy on the edges, tender on the inside, a handful of coriander sprinkled on a night market stall is most authentic. ►{Eight Treasures Fried Cake}: The intertwining of groundnut powder and seafood, the version of "Hai Tan Specialty Snacks" (98 Longfeng Road) is excellent. ►{Fishball Soup}: Meatballs pounded with mackerel meat, Q bouncing enough to dance, "Grandma's Sea" (Beigang Village entrance) limited daily supply. ☕ Coffee and wine 🥃 ►{Snapping by the Sea} (Tan Nan Wan Tian Mei Au Beach): Thatched roof with rattan woven chairs, raw coconut latte with sea salt cheesecake. ►{Pingtan Night Craft Tavern} (196 West Airlines Road): Local brewing "Blue Tears IPA" with sea salt slightly salty, resident folk songs in the fishing fire swaying. 🚖【Traffic Notes】——A concerto of wind and freedom 🚌 Way to go to the island ► Fu Changle Airport → Pingtan Bus (1.5 hours, RMB 53) ► HSR to Fuzhou South Station → Rent a car and drive (1 hour Cross-Sea Bridge) 🛵 Island roaming 🚲 ►🛵Electric car rental: 60-80 yuan/day (recommended "Take Ride Rental Car", there are outlets in Longwangtou and Beigang Village) ► 🚌Bus: Scenic area dedicated bus covers the main attractions, but less frequent, recommended to use with Didi. 🌈Lightning protection memorandum🌩 - a whisper to the wanderer📖 ⚠ Blue tears outbreak season (April-August) need to check the "Wander Pingtan" public account forecast in advance to avoid rainy nights. ⚠ Elephant Nose Bay is not fully developed. Do not risk wading during high tide. Drone aerial photography is safer. ⚠ Avoid the typhoon season in July-September, sunscreen + straw hat + sunscreen shirt three-piece set essential, Pingtan's UV rays will write poetry, can sun peel. ⚠ Choose the "Rush to the Sea Experience" with caution, some privately charged items may only provide plastic buckets and inferior gloves. You can bring a pair of 🩴 slippers to the seaside! If you encounter blue tears, you can also experience the romance of stepping on the galaxy 💕 ~ 🌊 The sea water is too cool to bring a pair of rain boots 👢! 🐡🐡🐡🐡 ⚠ Pingtan cuisine is light, spicy lovers can bring their own chili sauce, night market seafood ask the price before ordering. ㅠ 🌈Shooting techniques (for reference only): ✔️ Mobile photography: need to shoot in night 🌛 mode, lower the exposure, so the blue tears are more clear (✔️ good use)! ✔️ Camera shooting: Sensitivity is between 1600-3200, the larger the aperture, the better, usually between 2.8-4.0! Shutter speed around 20s-30s! 📷❤️ Whether it is a mobile phone or a camera, shooting with a tripod can be more stable, the "blue tears" captured is clearer 🤗 ~ [Epilogue] The beauty of Pingtan is hidden in the subtle folds between the ebb and flow of the tide. When you sit on the steps of a stone house and watch the drying fishing nets sway into a transparent wave in the wind, you may suddenly understand: the meaning of travel is nothing more than borrowing a piece of the sea to retrieve your lost slow time. 🫰 (Strategy version: prices may fluctuate, it is recommended to confirm before the trip) Creation is not easy, if you are helpful to travel, please pay attention ❤️ like 👍 collection ❤️
