I just came back from Zhangzhou Volcano Island. I have compiled a super real experience of playing. If you want to go, please code it!
🌟Overall feeling
It is the kind of place where "your eyes are in heaven and your feet are in hell" but you can't help taking pictures! The natural landscape and the check-in points of Internet celebrities have a strong contrast. There are both the roughness and grandeur of volcanic rocks and the girlish heart of the pink castle. I am tired but happy after a day of playing~
✨Surprise highlights
1. The photos are really great! The pink castle in Monument Valley is super dreamy in the sun. Just find an arch or a spiral staircase, and the original camera can take Instagram-style blockbusters. I, a useless photographer, have received 9 refined photos of Moments📸
2. The volcanic ruins are shocking! The black volcanic rocks stretch out to the sea layer by layer. The waves hit the rocks with a super sense of power. Standing on the observation deck, blowing the wind and looking at the sea, I instantly feel that all the troubles are blown away🌊
3. The atmosphere in the evening is amazing! The lighthouse looks like a fairy tale scene in the afterglow of the sunset. The grass beside the train track will glow. Walking in the sea breeze is so romantic that you want to propose on the spot (not really
4. The food is cost-effective! The seafood stalls outside the scenic area are blind spots and you can eat as much as you want for 50 yuan per person. The steamed squid and salt and pepper shrimp are so fresh that you can lick your fingers🦐
🚫 Mine avoidance reminder
1. The scenic area is a bit scattered! It takes a long time to walk from the popular scenic spot to the volcanic ruins. It is really painful in the summer sun. It is recommended to rent an electric car (50 yuan/hour) or take a sightseeing bus
2. Some facilities are a bit old! The graffiti on Rainbow Mountain is a bit peeling, and you need to find an angle to take pictures. The interior of the bubble house is also relatively simple, and it looks better from a distance than from close
3. There are a lot of people on holidays! You have to queue up for a vacant spot to take pictures in Monument Valley. If you want to take empty shots, it is recommended to arrive before 9 am, otherwise it will be full of people in the background
4. Sunscreen! Sunscreen! Sunscreen! The ultraviolet rays at the beach are ridiculously strong. I didn’t apply enough sunscreen and got sunburned that day. I put on a hat, sunglasses and ice sleeves.
💡Summary and suggestions
Suitable for two types of people:
✅ Sisters/couples who like taking photos, this place can really contract your circle of friends for a month
✅ Families with children, the Volcano Geology Museum can be played and learned, and children love dinosaur elements
If you are pursuing an in-depth tour or a pure natural landscape, you may think that the Internet celebrity attractions are a bit "artificial", but overall it is still worth a visit. After all, there are not many places in China that can combine this fairy tale feeling with natural landscape~
#Zhangzhou Volcano Island #Tourism Evaluation #Real Experience
The volcanic island resort is absolutely amazing! The blue sea and blue sky are accompanied by a large volcanic stone, and the sight is a blockbuster! The beach is thin like flour, and the bare feet are soft. The sea is clear enough to see small fish wandering around your feet. The place to live is even more amazing! There is a bubble house facing the sea, you can watch the stars when you lie down at night; there are also cabins hidden in the woods, and the windows are the birds and insects. It’s right to eat here. The seafood is all fished on the same day. There are enough lobsters and crabs. The oily oysters on the barbecue grill can shed their eyebrows! The projects to play are more dazzling: take a boat to chase dolphins, pick crabs on volcanic rocks, catch a bucket of snorkeling when the tide is low, and you can play snorkeling to see the coral reef. Don't worry about bringing a baby, the beach swing and the children's playground are enough for a baby to play crazy all day.
