Linyi Railway Station Area
Linyi Olympic Sports Park/LushangZhongxin
Guest User: The service was truly excellent. They gave us a small gift during check-in, and the front desk personally helped carry our luggage to the room. The room itself was quite spacious and very clean, and they even provided snacks and fruit. In the evening, there was complimentary congee, and they also had a self-service laundry machine. The breakfast the next day was good, with a decent selection of Linyi's local specialties. When we checked out, they even gave us more snacks as a parting gift. Although we only stayed for one day, we had a fantastic experience and will definitely consider staying here again if we have the chance! 😀

Cynthia Maher: This Hotel is very good location close to public transport to get to tour spots. Room was aged feel not too clean . The room service staffs didn't do the job well. We stayed 2 night . They only pull up the blanket and changed the towels. Slippers ,cup still remained the same as before we left the room. This need to improve . The front staffs was helpful.

Guest User: It was truly exceptional, a pleasant surprise. I initially chose it because it's close to the train station, but it turned out to be wonderful. It even had a bathtub, was incredibly clean, and despite the cloudy or rainy weather, the blankets were incredibly soft. My child was delighted and said they would definitely stay at this hotel again. The buffet breakfast was also excellent and plentiful; I highly recommend buying the package that includes breakfast – it's great value!

Anonymous User: The room is relatively modern, the shower water flow is very large, the sound insulation of the room is not very good, and any sound from the corridor can be heard clearly in the room. Breakfast at 38 yuan is a bit expensive. It is a very average breakfast and the variety is not as rich as the previous reviews said. I can only say that it is ordinary!

YoYo_8W: Service: They helped with luggage every time I entered and left, and I felt their high emotional intelligence and attentiveness daily. Every detail was perfectly handled, which made me feel very happy. Facilities: Since the hotel just opened, the facilities are quite new. The bedding was top-notch, and the Dyson hairdryer was a highlight. The heated swimming pool was very clean, and with the Olympic Sports Center right outside, the night view was fantastic. Dining: The buffet offered all-you-can-eat fresh durian, and the price was reasonable. I didn't try the stir-fried chicken, but it seemed like it would be good.

Traveller photos and experiences
I thought Luoyang was beautiful enough, until I went to Linyi!
I have always been captivated by the charm of Luoyang as an ancient capital of a thousand years, and I thought it was stunning enough—until I visited Linyi and was completely won over! With its gentle landscapes, healing ancient villages, and family-friendly atmosphere, I’ve put together a stress-free Linyi travel guide. Beginners can just follow this plan👇 Attraction Recommendations 1. 📍 Bamboo Spring Village (Zhuquan Village) No need to head south of the Yangtze River; you can encounter a picturesque water town right here in Linyi! The entire village is surrounded by lush bamboo forests, with clear springs winding through alleys, small bridges over flowing water, and ancient bluestone streets—the atmosphere is absolutely perfect. The ancient village is quiet and healing, filled with the warmth of daily life. You can see villagers washing clothes by the stream, stroll along forest paths, or take a bamboo raft through the water alleys to truly experience the comfort of being "in a painting." In summer, the breeze blows through the forest, offering a cool escape and a great backdrop for photos. 2. Polar Ocean World No need to rush to the coast to immerse yourself in a blue underwater world! The massive aquarium is filled with colorful schools of fish, both lively and soothing. The super-long underwater tunnel is a must-visit, where sharks and rays glide gracefully overhead, offering an incredibly immersive experience. Cute penguins and various adorable marine creatures are a delight to see, and the spectacular dolphin shows are full of fun. It’s perfect for traveling with kids, easily filling a whole day with joy. 3. Tianmeng Scenic Area The peak of Linyi's natural beauty! Nestled among mountains and forests with lush vegetation, the air is fresh and healing. A super-long high-altitude suspension bridge spans the mountains, offering panoramic views of the sea of clouds and forests below. It’s a wide-open vista where every shot feels like a cinematic masterpiece. Take the cable car for a leisurely ride up the mountain to overlook the entire canyon and forest landscape. Climb to the Wanghai Pavilion at the summit to encounter a magnificent sea of clouds on a clear day. It’s thrilling yet healing—the natural scenery is simply divine. Food Recommendations 1. Spring Water Tofu: A signature specialty of Bamboo Spring Village! Made with nourishing mountain spring water, the tofu is soft, bouncy, and smooth like pudding. Paired with a secret dipping sauce, it’s fresh, flavorful, and addictive. 2. Corn Pancakes: Authentic Linyi farm-style flavor, full of the rich, natural aroma of corn. Roll them up with green onions and sauce—simple, satisfying, and more fragrant with every chew. 3. Seafood Fried Rice: An affordable, hearty meal with generous portions. Every bite is packed with plump shrimp and scallops. The ingredients are substantial, fresh, and not greasy. Pair it with sour plum juice to cleanse the palate. 4. Wild Vegetable Buns: A specialty farm-style delicacy from the mountaintop, made with fresh shepherd's purse and purslane foraged from the mountains. They are natural, safe, and taste fresh and sweet. Pair them with millet porridge for a warm, comforting meal. Travel Itinerary · Day 1: Spend the morning exploring Bamboo Spring Village, immersing yourself in the picturesque ancient village and water town scenery. In the afternoon, head to Tianmeng Scenic Area to visit the popular high-altitude bridge and overlook the forest and sea of clouds. · Day 2: Spend the whole day enjoying Polar Ocean World, unlocking tons of marine exhibits and performances. In the afternoon, visit the Linyi Museum to immerse yourself in Linyi's thousand-year history and culture. Travel Tips 1. Bamboo Spring Village has dense vegetation and quite a few mosquitoes, so remember to bring mosquito repellent. 2. Tianmeng Scenic Area is at a high altitude and the mountaintop can be windy. Even in summer, it is recommended to bring a light jacket to avoid catching a cold. 3. The Linyi Museum is closed on Mondays. Be sure to check the opening hours before you go to avoid a wasted trip. 4. The performance schedule at the Ocean World is fixed. Check the timetable as soon as you enter the park so you don't miss the wonderful shows.

Linyi | A hidden paradise under the Yimeng Mountains
After spending two days in downtown Linyi, I headed to the Mengtong Wonderland Resort. The butler picked me up, helped settle my luggage, and drove toward the homestay as the surroundings gradually grew quiet. The homestay was much more spacious than I had imagined, with several courtyards spread out comfortably. With a children's playroom, a coffee shop, and a swimming pool, an entire afternoon just slipped away. The butler had prepared sand-digging tools in advance, and the beach was just a short walk away. The entire resort is full of life. The staff are warm and down-to-earth. It feels a bit like Aranya, with complete amenities, but it's more grounded in everyday life. The stir-fried chicken restaurant in the scenic area was unexpectedly delicious and very reasonably priced. Every street has many interesting little shops to explore. The kids loved the Mengtong Adventure Park the most; the homestay provided a package ticket, and they didn't want to leave even after spending the whole afternoon there. In the evening, I sat on a lounge chair watching the sunset, sipping a drink during the blue hour. The outside world seemed to be separated by an invisible wall. Life slowed down—slow enough to hear the sound of the wind blowing across the lake. When I left, I felt as if I had been in another world. Two days was too short. Next time I want a truly immersive vacation, I will still choose Lost Villa. With mountains and seas as neighbors, there is great joy in the wild.

A visit to Dongyi Cultural Park
Travelogue: Huangshan Dongyi Cultural Park This autumn, we stayed at the Ronghua Hotel and visited the Huangshan Dongyi Cultural Park to experience the ancient Dongyi culture. The park was filled with the golden hues of autumn, with signs of the season everywhere. Stepping into the park, various stone sculptures were neatly arranged, vividly recreating scenes of ancient ancestors working and hunting. The giant phoenix totem statue, a symbol of Dongyi culture, was magnificent. Climbing the stone steps to Huangshan Pavilion, the autumn breeze brushed against our faces, and the autumn scenery of the Yi River unfolded before our eyes. The river flowed quietly, and the trees along the banks were painted in layers of autumn colors. Stone tablets along the path recorded the distant history. I read them carefully to learn about the wisdom of the Dongyi people. Strolling through the park, we could enjoy the natural autumn scenery while learning about history. As the sun set, we reluctantly left the scenic area and returned to the Ronghua Hotel. This trip was an eye-opener and a very meaningful autumn excursion.
A Crowne Plaza that visibly exceeds expectations: The undisputed king of Linyi hotels
The Crowne Plaza Linyi Olympic Sports, which held its grand opening on March 18, 2026, is the 16th Crowne Plaza Hotels & Resorts property I have stayed at. It visibly exceeds expectations in every way. The interior design is stunning, and the staff uniforms are equally delightful💎💎💎 Since its debut, the Crowne Plaza Linyi Olympic Sports has become the highest-tier hotel in Linyi. In a major city with a population of over 10 million, the number of full-service international chain hotels is very limited🏨🏨🏨 The hotel's service standards and staff presentation also far exceed expectations. The hotel has clearly put significant effort into selecting frontline staff. Combined with the meticulously designed uniforms, the staff's appearance is truly impressive—surpassing many luxury hotels in first-tier cities. This really surprised me💁🏻♂️💁🏻♂️💁🏻♂️ The hotel features the "Wujie" all-day dining restaurant, "Shanhaiji" Chinese restaurant, and "Pianke" lobby lounge, all of which offer a wonderful dining experience. I heard there is also a private "Langyaxuan" Chinese restaurant on the top floor, not open to the public, specifically for high-end receptions👍👍👍 The breakfast for guests at the Wujie all-day dining restaurant is fantastic. I was pleasantly surprised that a Crowne Plaza could offer Eggs Benedict for breakfast. You must try the local specialties, Linyi Ta Jianbing (crispy pancakes) and Sa (a local soup). Additionally, the made-to-order wontons and orange-glazed ham were also delightful surprises🍳🍳🍳 The Shanhaiji Chinese restaurant specializes in Lu cuisine. The interior is beautiful and upscale, but the price per person is not as intimidating as the environment suggests. For example, the 3-person set menu my friends and I ordered included 10 items, including appetizers and fruit platters. We left feeling very satisfied and completely full🥢🥢🥢 The Pianke lobby lounge is incredibly beautiful—the way the sunlight streams in on a clear day is truly stunning. There is a dedicated Tsingtao Beer area, as well as a section selling the hotel's original IP merchandise. Thanks to my IHG membership status, the front desk gave me two drink vouchers, and I spent a truly memorable time basking in the sunlight there☀️☀️☀️ I stayed in room 1619, which faces the Olympic Sports Center. It was very spacious and equipped with a bathtub, a capsule coffee machine, and a Dyson hair dryer🛁🛁🛁 The hotel is not in the traditional city center, but it is close to the Langya Ancient City scenic area and Linyi North Railway Station. I recommend taking the time to fully appreciate the hotel's beauty during your stay. If you are just looking for a place to sleep while sightseeing, a nearby budget hotel would suffice👀👀👀 During my stay, the 32nd IMC Shanghai International Model Contest (Shandong Division Finals) was being held at the hotel. My staycation was filled with extra value that was both visually and mentally refreshing🤩🤩🤩 No. 20 Lanzhou Road, Lanshan District, Linyi City. Rates start from 560 CNY per night💰💰💰
Stroll through Yizhouli and experience a gentle encounter between the past and present.
The essence of a city is hidden in its old streets and ancient alleys. Its tenderness is revealed in the ordinary warmth of daily life. Deep in the old city of Linyi, Yizhouli stands quietly, carrying the thousand-year cultural heritage of Langya and blending the charm of ancient and modern city life. With its green bricks hiding ancient rhythms and warm lights comforting the heart, it is a rare corner of tranquility in the bustling city and an excellent place to touch the thousand-year history of Linyi. Stroll through it in your leisure time, encounter the old days, and unlock the unique poetry and tenderness of the old city. Stepping into Yizhouli, a magnificent imitation-ancient archway comes into view. The four characters "Yizhou Rushang" are steady and imposing, instantly setting the atmosphere of the ancient street. The entire district replicates the architectural style of the Ming and Qing dynasties, with well-arranged pavilions, green bricks and dark tiles, upturned eaves, and simple yet elegant carved window lattices. The smooth bluestone road winds ahead, polished to a gentle and delicate texture by time and pedestrians. Every step taken feels like traveling through a thousand years of time, touching the imprints of old Yizhou. During the day, Yizhouli is elegant and quiet, possessing a gentle temperament. Warm sunlight filters through the eaves, casting scattered light and shadows on the green brick walls. Flowers sway in the corners, and lush greenery adds vitality to the ancient streets. The streets crisscross, with scenery at every turn. Retro signs with gold lettering on black backgrounds are scattered throughout, while the book-scented Yizhou Study, elegant cultural and creative shops, and unique intangible cultural heritage handicraft stores dot the area. There is no urban noise or hustle, only a gentle breeze and peaceful time. Deep in the ancient alleys, the styles of the past and present blend perfectly. Beside the rustic courtyards, trendy cafes and artistic shops have quietly settled in, creating a unique aesthetic where traditional charm collides with modern fashion. The popular photo spots, creative sculptures, and exquisite benches at the street corners are simple and healing. A casual snapshot results in an atmospheric photo. Strolling through the streets, you can glimpse the elegant cultural heritage of thousand-year-old Langya while feeling the vibrant energy of the new-era old city. As dusk falls, Yizhouli welcomes a different kind of romance. Red lanterns and warm yellow light strips light up one after another, wrapping around the upturned eaves and pavilions, casting a gentle glow over the ancient architecture. The night is quiet, the light and shadows are mottled, and the entire ancient street is colorful and dreamlike. The evening breeze passes through the alleys, taking away the heat of the day. The vibrant pulse of daily life gradually rises in the streets, with the sounds of specialty snacks and people gently intertwining—lively but not noisy—fully displaying the warmth of human life. Wandering through Yizhouli, every brick and tile is history, and every plant and tree holds charm. Here, there is the accumulation of a thousand-year cultural heritage, the warmth of human life, and the romance of the coexistence of the old and the new. There is no need to travel far; just stroll here, and you can shed your fatigue in the ancient streets and heal your daily life amidst the lights and bustle. This encounter with Yizhouli, half ancient charm and half the vibrant pulse of daily life, holds the most moving tenderness of time in Linyi.
What people are saying about Linyi
Langya Ancient City
The hotel staff were all very friendly and the environment was fantastic. We could easily visit the old town countless times a day, making it especially suitable for families with children and elderly members. The value for money was excellent, especially the receptionists – a huge thumbs up! 👍 The shows in the old town were wonderful, especially the water show – don't miss it! I personally think it's even better than the National Show!
M50***41Shandong Underground Grand Canyon
The underground canyon is quite beautiful. It's the first time I've seen a scenic area of this style, especially rare in the north. It's worth a visit. There's a lot of walking inside, the ticket price isn't cheap, and there's a separate charge for shuttle buses.
Anonymous userWang Xizhi's Former Residence
The former residence of Wang Xizhi, the Sage of Calligraphy, is located in the urban area of Linyi City. The park has a particularly beautiful and comfortable environment, especially the bamboo shoots after the rain. The tender bamboo shoots are sprouting from the ground, and I have never seen such tender bamboo shoots before. They are everywhere.
Anonymous userThe National Forest Park of Mount Meng Shan
The natural scenery is delightful, and the little landscape features are quite unique! Because every step reveals a new view, the climb wasn't too strenuous! Near the summit, there's a fun-filled cloud-top park. It's very comfortable to rest here. You can sit down, pet the cats, gaze at the sky, and have a cup of coffee to recharge. The dappled sunlight under the trees, the white clouds floating in the blue sky, and the innocent laughter of children all around—it instantly makes you feel that life is truly wonderful.
M47***35Mengshan National Forest Park
Traveling off-peak, there were few people on the whole mountain. I tried all the projects. I liked the speed car going down the mountain and rafting the most. The children wanted to play a second time. Although the whole process was arranged without any legwork, it was still considered to be walking nearly 10,000 steps. It was a good exercise and a multi-experience. The camp on the mountain was also arranged very attentively. I like it and recommend it
M71***89Yimeng Mountain Inzone Tianmeng Tourist Area
Tianmeng Mountain is definitely worth a visit. The recommended route is to enter from the East Gate and exit from the South Gate, but due to time constraints, we could only exit from the East Gate, taking the cable car up and down. The scenic area is quite considerate; the sightseeing bus and cable car are quite crowded, but the capacity is large, so the wait isn't too long. At the top of the mountain, you can climb the Wanghai Tower for a panoramic view of the surrounding mountains. The couplet at the entrance of the Wanghai Tower is worth appreciating. The glass walkway is unforgettable; most people are afraid to look down while crossing it, looking straight ahead or upwards. The mountain breeze is gentle as you walk across, making it thrilling and exciting. The most impressive part is the descent. As the sun sets, the temperature in the mountains drops sharply, and the usual sightseeing bus stops are all converted into tourist buses, making the return journey warmer.
Anonymous userYimeng Mountain Guimeng Scenic Area
Overall, the Yimeng Mountain Guimeng Scenic Area was quite good, with beautiful and pleasant scenery and basically complete supporting facilities. The only slight drawback was the slightly high ticket price. For a weekend family trip, its price-performance ratio wasn't particularly outstanding. In general, the beautiful scenery could temporarily make one forget the relatively expensive package ticket. However, it was quite regrettable that when I visited on September 26th, 2026, the cable car was still closed, preventing me from fully experiencing all the sights within the scenic area.
_We***69Zhuquan Village
For those who love natural scenery, Zhuquan Village is a great choice. Many come from far and wide, but where does the bamboo come from? Here, springs gurgle, bamboo groves are dense and tall, and some springs even have water that's safe to drink. Bring an empty cup to sample the spring water. The scenic area can be visited separately or combined with a group ticket for Hongshiya (Red Stone Cliff). The scenery is beautiful; immersing yourself in the bamboo forest allows you to forget your worldly troubles.
Anonymous user"National Show: Langya" Indoor Performance
You have no idea how amazing the show is. It's absolutely incredible, always full of surprises, and every performance is meticulously crafted. You just can't get enough of it. It feels like the money was well spent. It's truly amazing!
战战飞霞子Firefly Stream Cave
Children's height requirement is 140cm, and the second admission fee for the rafting is 50 yuan per person, but the experience time is too short. The 10 yuan shuttle bus is also unnecessary. Other attractions lack vibrancy and feel somewhat forced, not up to the standard of a 5A-level scenic spot.
