I am in Taizhou, Zhejiang, and I have discovered the fairy-tale world of Hayao Miyazaki
🌈Taizhou trip, the City in the Sky awaits your exploration!🏞️
🎈Did you know? In Taizhou🌳, this land is not only filled with sticky and delicious food🍜, but there is also a breathtakingly beautiful City in the Sky waiting for you to encounter!🌄
🏞️It is built upon the mountains🏔️, as if you are in the fairy-tale world depicted by Hayao Miyazaki🎨. The endless tea plantations🌱, and the windmills from the animations🎡, make you feel as if you have stepped into another world.🌬️
🌄At the end of the road, perhaps you will find the floating cloud island in the sky🏝️, or maybe the realm of the sky after the rain has cleared🌌, with the sea of clouds tumbling🌫️, making you feel as if you are in a fairyland.🌥️
🍃The cliff swing next to it🎢, makes your heart beat faster💓. On a sunny day🌞, sitting there in a daze😌, taking pictures📸, and looking out at the town at the foot of the mountain🏙️, it's so beautiful that it's intoxicating.😍
🚂Under the guidance of Totoro🐉, you can also wait for a fairy-tale train that goes deep into the forest🚂. Traveling slowly along the track🛤️, perhaps deep in the tea plantation🌿, you will find a particularly beautiful little wooden house🏡, which is really a super photogenic spot!📸💯
🏕️If you choose to stay in a tent here🏕️, then every second of opening the curtain🎇, is full of anticipation and surprises🌟. In the morning, sit in a rocking chair and have a cup of green tea🍵; in the afternoon, lie in bed and watch the clouds roll by🌤️; at sunset🌇, watch the golden light pass through the mountains🌄, and wait until the sky is filled with sunset glow🌅, at this moment, which song will flash through your mind?🎵
🌈If that's still not healing enough💖, then when you see the rainbow🌈 hanging on the windmill⚡, that romantic scene💕, really makes your heart flutter!💗
🍲At night, sit around with friends👥, enjoy a hotpot barbecue🍲🔥, and talk about life🗣️. The next day, set off to the mountain top at an altitude of 650 meters🏔️ to experience paragliding🪂. When your feet leave the ground👣, facing the wind and overlooking the mountains and rivers🏞️, that feeling of bravery and freedom💪, is truly unforgettable!😌
🎉Taizhou, the City in the Sky awaits your exploration! Come and feel its beauty and romance!🎈🌈

Taizhou Sky City is Lovely❤️🇨🇳

Taizhou, you really know how to hide it, the real version of Sky City! On the first day of the 51 holiday, you are stuck on the road and still hiding at home playing with your phone. If you haven't arranged your itinerary yet, this low-key border town in Taizhou, really # 51vlog, don't miss it again! When it comes to Sky City, one must associate it with Hayao Miyazaki's anime, but who wouldn't want to escape into the real-life version of Sky City. Take a closer look, you are likely to see that everyone who comes to the small town is looking up, so here, for over 200 days a year, you can meet Shuohai

Taizhou! The world of Miyazaki Hayao's manga! Regret not coming sooner!
In Huangyan, Taizhou, I actually stepped into the anime world of 'Castle in the Sky'
I accidentally entered into Miyazaki Hayao's manga
The Totoro with an umbrella
The fairy tale train
The floating island reaching towards the clouds
The little cabin in the tea garden
The mirror of the sky
Windmills seen everywhere
The sea of clouds within reach
It really seems like the real-life version of the 'Castle in the Sky', as if I've entered into Miyazaki Hayao's anime world. I really recommend traveling to Taizhou to check in at this niche 'Castle in the Sky'.
Taizhou Huangyan - 'Castle in the Sky' Admission: 58
It's recommended to drive yourself if you're from nearby areas. If you're from afar, you can take the high-speed train to 'Taizhou West Station', then rent a car to get there. Be careful on the narrow mountain roads.
The floating island looks like it's floating in the clouds, perfect for taking photos. The background is the Changtan Reservoir and mountains, sometimes with a sea of clouds and sunset, the scene is also very beautiful.
The swing above the clouds and taking a photo with the lying Totoro, swinging on the mountaintop, you can also see the cityscape below.
The Sky Realm Walking on the Sky Realm, with the glass mirror beneath your feet reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, it's like walking in the clouds.
The little train is free to ride, shuttling through the jungles and shrubs on the mountaintop, romantic and healing.
The cabin in the tea garden There's a large tea garden on the mountaintop, where you can stroll and also find a tea room, suitable for taking photos or having afternoon tea.
The flight camp Nearby there's a 'Changtan Lake · Shangyang Flight Camp', where you can experience paragliding, truly flying in the sky like a bird, overlooking the beautiful scenery of Changtan Lake and the mountains.
Accommodation The accommodation in the scenic area includes tent rooms facing the lake view, where you can lie in bed and watch the sunset, sea of clouds, and other beautiful scenes; there's also the same type of starry sky bubble house from 'Youth Travel Notes'. If you like camping, you can also bring your own tent, or rent one in the scenic area.
Dining There are restaurants, barbecue, coffee shops, snack bars, and vending machines on the mountaintop, so there's no need to worry about food and drink~

Wow, such beautiful scenery right in Huangyan, Taizhou!
During the Qingming Festival, on the way back to Hangzhou after visiting the graves in my hometown, I took a detour to navigate to the Sky City of Huangyan. I had seen it mentioned on Ctrip by other travelers as very beautiful, so I made a special trip to check it out. Driving along the Wangbai route, climbing up the mountain with numerous twists and turns, I finally reached the Sky City. Standing in any corner of the Sky City, you can overlook the entire panorama of the Changtan Reservoir. It's really too beautiful and spectacular! The mountains and water complement each other, and even the air tastes sweet. I remember a few years ago, I took a boat tour of the Changtan Reservoir with my family, but this time, standing on the mountaintop looking at the reservoir, the feeling was just different. One of the highlights is the must-visit Cloud End, where I actually had to queue up to take photos. The photos turned out absolutely gorgeous! I never expected that right next to my hometown, Huangyan would have such a beautiful place. I was too out of the loop before!
