    Personally, I think it's very worthwhile. Both attractions offer the natural beauty of unique mountains and rocks, as well as numerous safe and challenging boardwalks built to save tourists time and effort. They are perfect for bringing children to appreciate the beauty of nature.

    I visited a few years ago and couldn't resist going back to see it again. The waterfall plunges down nine thousand feet, which is very spectacular. This time, some areas were fenced off for construction. Overall, the scenic area is well-constructed, and the roads are slip-resistant.

    We took a 5-yuan super shortwave taxi to get in, then walked a bit and took another 20-yuan bus to the halfway point. The climb was truly tiring. ~ We only took a few photos at the top. The Hand of God and the slide were completely deserted and dilapidated. The best part was just a short walk down the mountain! The scenery was beautiful, but once we got to the top, we realized the waterfall was man-made... Just walk around; I don't recommend hiking.

    Nanji Islands: One of the ten most beautiful islands in China, the island ecology is pristine and pure, the sand is soft and golden, and the secret blue hole hides clear water. It is suitable for travelers who pursue niche and in-depth ocean experiences. However, transportation to the island is greatly affected by the weather, so advance planning is required.

    A stunning hidden gem! We spent half an hour driving along the mountain roads of Dongtou, Wenzhou, just to see this sea and the "Gate of Heaven"—but the moment we saw the sunset, it was all worth it! 🤩 📸The "Gate of Heaven" atop the mountain is absolutely stunning! The slate-gray stone tower frames the azure sea and sky💙, and the moment you step onto the mirrored platform, it feels like you're in Bali! 🌅Even more breathtaking is the sunset in the evening! The moment we climbed to the observation deck, the dreamy blue sea gradually turned orange-red, the sun slowly sank below the horizon, the clouds shimmered with golden light, and the sea breeze caressed our faces. It made all the fatigue worth it! ⚠️ Travel Tips: 🚗 Road Conditions: The mountain road is winding and steep, so novice drivers should proceed with caution. It's safer to travel on a sunny day. 👗 Style Tip: Wear light colors for photos at the "Gate of Heaven" (Sky Gate). The best lighting is between 3:00 PM and 5:00 PM. 📸 ⌛ Golden Time: To see stunning sunrises and sunsets, check the tide chart (we recommend using the "Dongtou Tide" app). It's best to arrive at least an hour early. 🎥 Movie Location: The wooden plank path down the mountain is also stunning! Stroll along the coastline, stopping and wandering, every snap will be a masterpiece. 🏷️Basic Information 📍 Address: Shanjian Scenic Area, Dongtou District, Wenzhou City 🎫 Admission: Free (A truly excellent attraction!!) 🕓 Recommended Time: 3-4 hours (Arriving after 2 PM is recommended) 💡 Insider Tips: This hidden gem isn't well-known, so come on a weekend and enjoy the mountains and sea all to yourself! 🌊 It's even better when you combine it with the nearby Colorful Fishing Village!

    This is an island in the Oujiang River, integrating history, culture and natural scenery. It has the East and West Towers, Jiangxin Temple, the British Consulate... as well as the Song Garden, lakes, small bridges and flowing water... It also has convenient transportation and is very cost-effective. I recommend everyone to come!

    The Impression Nantang Night Cruise was fantastic. The one-hour boat ride featured several performances, plays, and stunning coastal scenery. The singing, dancing, and lights were all breathtaking. I highly recommend it. The open-top boat experience was even better than the pleasure boat. Watching the moon rise in the sky, the gentle breeze blowing, it was a feast for the senses and a feast for the senses.

    🌞 I'm in Wenzhou! With no plans, I just casually wandered around and stumbled upon the famous Wuma Street. It's a bit like the bustling Nanjing Road in Shanghai, but a bit more gentle and slower. 🏛️ The buildings lining the street are Baroque-style buildings from the Republican era. The sunlight dappled the facades, creating a beautiful, mottled effect. While walking, I came across the magnificent bronze statue of "Five Galloping Horses." It was truly breathtaking!✨ There's also the First Department Store and century-old shops—it's like you can smell the scent of bygone times. 📍 Address: Wuma Street, Lucheng District, Wenzhou (between Jiefang Street and Fuqian Street) ⏰ Hours: Open all day, feel free to stroll around. 🪶 Fun Fact: Wuma Street got its name from the fact that when Wang Xizhi of the Eastern Jin Dynasty traveled, the street was wide enough to accommodate five horses galloping side by side. Isn't that quite poetic? ⸻ 🐎 1️⃣ Five Galloping Horses Bronze Statue The bronze horses looked particularly imposing in the sunlight, and many people stopped to take photos. On a clear day, the light and shadows on the horses made them look like they were galloping, so dynamic! 🏮 2️⃣ Chan Street Archway The archway of the New Guoguang Building is easily recognizable from afar. Further in, you can see the Jingguang Pagoda on Songtai Mountain. I happened to be there during sunset, and the warm light was incredibly beautiful. 📸 🏛️ 3️⃣ Baroque Buildings Every corner offers a great photo opportunity. The Republican-era-style exterior walls glow golden in the sunlight during the day and warm in the light at night. Wherever you walk by, you'll feel like you've traveled back in time. 🎭 4️⃣ Ancient Theater The bluestone pavement, carved stone figures, and the archway across the street are all incredibly exquisite. The ancient stage and modern architecture juxtaposed side by side create a wonderful contrast, a truly Wenzhou-inspired experience. ⸻ 🚶‍♀ I didn't take the train~ I preferred to walk slowly, take photos, and enjoy snacks. No rush, no set route. Just let my feet take me wherever I want to go.💭

    Overall it's OK. It's a good place for children to escape the heat in the summer. You can walk around more. If you come here specifically to play, you may be disappointed compared to other aquariums. It's OK to check in for tourism. I plan to visit more.
