Although it's a man-made attraction, it's truly stunning. It's a great place to visit both day and night. I traveled in September to avoid the crowds. During the day, there were very few people, and the lighting was perfect, making for great photos. At night, it was busier, and the lights were on, creating a magical atmosphere perfect for travel photography. There were beautiful women everywhere. The staff were very welcoming and attentive, sharing their specialties. The entire area was spotless and tidy, and I always saw someone cleaning. It was a great experience.
It's worth coming here. The service of the girls and brothers here is very good. The aunt also provides a special car for pick-up and drop-off. The food here is also very delicious. The scenery is beautiful and there is a swimming pool. I will come again next time. It is also very convenient for worshiping Buddha. The butler service is very considerate.

Gulangyu Island is not large in area, but it is rich in content. It is a good place for tourists to slow down, calm down, stroll along the alleys, explore at will, encounter bougainvillea and old villas while getting lost, and feel the romance and surprises.
Gulangyu is great. I came back after ten years. The crowds are much less than before, but it feels more comfortable. Except for the photo-taking spots, there are not many people elsewhere, which is suitable for strolling. I couldn't buy the 35 yuan boat ticket on the official website, only the 80 yuan one. I booked it on Ctrip, but I didn't expect to spend more later⊙﹏⊙

Due to the hot weather, we only visited the succulent and rainforest areas. We entered through the east and exited through the west gates. We took the sightseeing escalator to the highest point for a panoramic view of Xiamen's ocean, then took a sightseeing bus to explore the various attractions. The succulent area was a breathtaking sight, as was the sight of so many cacti. The rainforest area was much cooler, and there were countless fairies there, enjoying the mist and clouds, taking photos, many with photographers. If you have enough time and energy, you can explore the entire park.
It's worth recommending. I like it very much. It's very convenient to take the sightseeing bus. You can get on and off the bus anytime and anywhere to change attractions. I have never seen such a high 🌵. The misty forest in the rainforest world is fairy-like. There are many beautiful girls taking pictures. Every attraction is good... Overall it's very good. I will come again if I have the chance.

Overall, it is highly recommended, especially in the evening at sunset. The only inconvenience is that even if you buy tickets online, you still have to queue up on site to pick up the tickets. If you go during peak holiday season, it is recommended to buy them online. If you go during normal times, you can buy them on site and there is no need to buy them online in advance.
It's a good hike, with beautiful views. The round trip takes 40 minutes, and aside from being a bit hot in the summer, there aren't any other issues.
The waiting time is about 30 minutes (at 10 AM on a summer weekend).

Shenxianju is very beautiful. The scenery, stones and bridges inside are all very eye-catching. It cannot be described in words. You can only feel it by visiting it in person. I hope to go there again next time. It is worthy of being the place where the gods live. If I have time, energy and money in the future, I will definitely come back. I hope that the scenic spot will become more beautiful next time. Great!
The scenic area features cable cars and escalators, making climbing painless and suitable for visitors of all ages. It also offers extreme activities such as via ferrata and jungle climbing, as well as helicopter rides for panoramic views, catering to diverse visitor needs.
The South Skytop Glass Observation Deck, perched atop a sheer cliff at an altitude of 869 meters, is a single-tower, cable-stayed, cantilevered, double-story steel structure. It frames Guanyin Peak like a painting, making it a popular check-in spot.

Family, Pingtan Island truly embodies island romance!
If you're looking to watch the sunrise, Dragon King Head is the place to go. Watching the sun slowly rise from the horizon early in the morning on the beach is a truly breathtaking sight. Many people set up tents on the beach, creating a truly captivating atmosphere. There are also cultural and creative shops nearby, selling postcards and other souvenirs that are truly memorable and worth buying.
Don't miss Houyan Island, too. It's the closest point in mainland China to Taiwan, and admission is 35 yuan per person. There are tons of photo spots on the island, and any photo is truly stunning. It takes about two hours to explore, making it perfect for photography enthusiasts.
If you prefer a lively and atmospheric beach, Tannan Bay is a great choice. While it's a bit crowded, it has an open-air cafe and a tatami area. It's a relaxing evening spot to enjoy a drink with friends and soak in the sea breeze. For a quieter, less crowded beach, Yuehai Bay is a less popular beach in Pingtan, with fine, white sand, stunningly blue water, and few people. There's even a swing on the beach, perfect for photos, capturing a refreshing and soothing feeling.
Beigang Village boasts Pingtan's most typical traditional stone houses. The village is filled with the charm of everyday life and is a charming little fishing village, though it's now becoming more commercialized. A must-see is the scenic Ring Road, which circles the island, facing the ocean, offering panoramic views along the way. It's a pleasant drive or bike ride.
Dalian Island, known as the "Little Santorini of Fujian," boasts breathtaking scenery and is perfect for wedding photos. Every corner is photogenic. However, the area is relatively small, so exploring it in about half an hour is enough. Tickets to Xianrenjing (Immortal Well) cost 21 yuan per person. There are two paths: the upper path leads to the observation deck and Xianrenjing, offering panoramic views of the ocean. The lower path leads to the gorge, where the black reefs exude a unique, austere beauty.
Jingsha's black sand beach, also known as "Little Iceland," boasts a unique texture of sand and reef. However, be aware of the high tide times here, as there are sea cockroaches on the rocks. If you're particularly afraid, you can skip this attraction. Xianshui Village is a truly dreamy village, clean and full of life. It feels like stepping into a Hayao Miyazaki anime world. However, there's a 10 yuan fee for taking photos on the village swings.
Changjiang'ao, home to a vast sea of windmills, is Pingtan's best sunset viewing spot. Watching the sun slowly sink between the windmills and the sea is incredibly romantic. You can also go fishing here, so if you've never tried it before, give it a try and experience the joy of catching fish. It's truly fun. Beibu Gulf is perfect for photography enthusiasts, with its windmill highway and glass plank road, offering stunning photo opportunities. However, parking can be difficult in the afternoon, so arrive early to secure a good spot. Heping Village, with its fairytale-like town and road leading to the sea, has a truly cinematic feel. You can also witness the romantic sunset glow, making it a perfect place for a leisurely stroll and soaking up the tranquility and beauty of the town.
Pingtan Island's attractions are divided into the South Route (approximately one day) and the North Route (approximately two days). On Day 1, you can visit Longwangtou, 68 Nautical Mile Scenic Area (Houyan Island), Tannan Bay or Yuehai Bay; on Day 2, visit Xianrenjing Scenic Area and Beigang Village.
Pingtan Island is a beautiful island with romantic scenery, stunning sunrises, abundant seafood, a beautiful environment, and adorable monkeys. Strolling through its quaint streets is a unique experience, along with vast beaches and clear blue waters. You'll be reluctant to leave, leaving behind an unforgettable experience.

Wuyi Mountain is indeed worth recommending. The Jade Maiden Peak stands like a young girl, Jiuqu River, Dahongpao, etc. are all must-see places. The most shocking one is Impression Dahongpao, with its rotating stage and colorful lights... I want to watch Impression Dahongpao again
Entering the park with your ID card is very convenient, and after that, you only need to scan your face to board the bus at each attraction. My only regret was that I didn't get to ride the bamboo raft. You should book in advance during the summer. I heard it's even more crowded during Golden Week, but I was very satisfied with the crowds for the summer. Although the temperature was acceptable, it was still very hot. I decided to just explore the national park on my own, climbing and hiking whenever I wanted. It was very flexible and comfortable. The air was fresh, and the clear water and mountains were refreshing. It's worth a visit!

The highlights of Wenzhou's Yandang Mountain are Lingyan and Fangdong. The two scenic areas are connected, and the scenery along the way is beautiful. You can also see steep cliffs and watch amazing performances. I recommend everyone to visit. However, Dalongqiu is currently in the dry season, so the water is relatively low, but it is still worth playing.
The unique landform and the buildings in the cave blend in with the surrounding scenery. This trip is more worthwhile than expected. Zhenji Temple is an unexpected surprise and a good place to relax.

Accommodation: There are numerous B&Bs and hotels available in and around the scenic area, and booking in advance is recommended. B&Bs near Xuanyuan Street are convenient for early morning photography, while accommodations in the county town offer better value.

The Bernoulli Cannon is spectacular. The Hulishan Fort is conveniently located next to Baicheng Beach, with buses running right outside. The sea views, blue skies, and white clouds are fantastic for taking photos. The staff are friendly and can even make small photo keychains for free, which is a great touch.
The scenery of Hulishan Fort is very beautiful, and you can also learn about the history of the bombardment of Kinmen and the past resistance against foreign enemies. The overall feeling after the tour is very good, the sea view is very beautiful, and you can see some of the islands of Kinmen, which is impressive.
