Wake up naturally and open your eyes to the sparkling Tianming Lake 🌊. Smart rooms + Starbucks in the lobby make for the perfect vacation! ☀️ Panoramic Breakfast on the 18th Floor Sunlight streams through the French windows as you enjoy breakfast and the lake view. It's the perfect way to start the day💯. Breakfast recommendations: Seafood noodles or beef noodles with your own ingredients. The rice cakes and Fenghua rice cakes are also good. You can also DIY your breakfast. White porridge with pickled shredded pork is just as good as Fenghua mutton porridge, and you can even make a sandwich! As long as you can imagine it, you can take your breakfast to new heights. 🍵 Slow Living in the Courtyard Brew a pot of Wanghai tea, read a book, and listen to the wind in the city garden. Time seems to stand still～ 🌅 Wanggan Mountain: Sunset over the Sea Drive 40 minutes to Yuexi Township and overlook thousands of acres of aquaculture ponds from the boardwalk. The sunset turns the sea golden 🌇. Pair it with a cup of "Sangtian Village Coffee" for a picture-perfect moment! 🍻 Tianming Lake Beer and Lobster Festival The lakeside is super lively at night! Spicy crayfish + ice-cold beer is the perfect way to spend a summer night 🦞. The Lobster Festival runs until May 5, so don't miss it! ✨ Tips ▫️We recommend the lake view room for the best views. ▫️Arrive at Wanggan Mountain 1 hour before sunset for the softest light. ▫️Remember to bring a jacket, as it can be cool by the lake in the evening. Ninghai is truly a hidden gem with fewer crowds and beautiful scenery. This is how a vacation should be spent～ 💛

Accommodation: Xiakeju Hotel Tianming Lake Park Store is a newly opened hotel, less than a 10-minute drive from Ninghai Station, adjacent to Tianming Lake. The hotel's decoration is light business style, the rooms are large and clean, with floor-to-ceiling windows on both sides offering a broad view. Their breakfast is very rich, with both Chinese and Western options. The places we are going to this time are not close to each other, and there are no suitable accommodations nearby, so it is recommended to stay near Ninghai Station. Transportation: The attractions are not close to each other and are relatively remote, so it is recommended to travel by car.
