Beef hotpot is freshest at 4 PM. Shopping Tricks: Souvenirs in the park are three times more expensive than in supermarkets. For beef balls, look for brands like Chaoting and Baheli. 🎁 Hidden Gems Old Town Teahouse: Enjoy Gongfu tea on the second floor of Piaoxiang Snack Shop (10 yuan per person) Evening Cruise to the Haojiang River: Take the Plaza Ferry for a nighttime cruise (5 yuan to see the lights on both sides of the strait) Morning Fish Market: Photograph the catch at Shantou Seafood Market from 4:00 to 6:00 PM 📌 Eat at all the filming locations of "A Bite of China" for just 600 yuan! I recommend combining 512g of stomach and digestion tablets. For autumn and winter, try the marinated crab roe. For summer trips to Nan'ao Island, remember to bring stomach and digestion tablets. ✨ Local Tips: Get a number in advance on the Xinghua Wuji official account. Accommodating in Houzhai Town on Nan'ao Island is cheaper than staying in Qing'ao Bay. Shantou Station is closer to the city than Chaoshan Station. The packaged beef balls can be vacuum-packed (keep for 3 days). #ChaoshanBeefHotPot #CaptureCityHumanity #A Collection of Delicious Snacks #AfternoonTeaForBeautyConnoisseurs #MyLate-NightDiningHall
