Wandering through the Ziyang Street by the sea
The historic district of Ziyang Street in Linhai is the most prosperous commercial area in the history of Taizhou Prefecture, and it is a microcosm of the millennium history of the prefecture city. Historically, Ziyang ancient street was lined with shops, including century-old brands such as Xufengyuan Restaurant, Wang Tianshun's horseshoe cakes, Tongshuhe tea food shop, Yidongtian teahouse, Cenzhenyuan medicine shop, and Cai Yongli scale shop.
The ancient street is 1080 meters long and 4-5 meters wide, running north to south, with two to three-story wooden structures on both sides. The entire street retains the architectural style of the Ming and Qing dynasties, with exquisite and auspicious gray carvings and lines, and five firewalls built across the street are distinctive.
Find a sunny afternoon, wander east and west on Ziyang Street, and let the old streets and cultural atmosphere calm your mood.
🗓 Itinerary: During the three days in Linhai, Ziyang Street is definitely worth visiting two or three times.
👉 Day 1
1⃣️ Start from Donghu, head west along Huipu Road, turn south into Ziyang Street at Qinghefang, which is roughly the middle section of Ziyang Street.
2⃣️ Head south to Xingshan Gate, about 800 meters, along the way there are many local snacks from Linhai and mini-exhibition halls to visit.
❤️ Food recommendations: Wang Tianshun traditional snacks, Rongjia snacks, Jiujinori cakes, Lushi shrimp puffs
❤️ Recommendations for historical buildings and exhibition halls: The former site of the People's Bank of China Taizhou Branch, Zhu Ziqing Memorial Hall, Chaomu Embroidery Art Museum, Dasheng Cloth Shop former site, Qianfo Well, Zhang Xiujuan Papercutting Art Museum
3⃣️ Arriving at Xingshan Gate, the south gate of Taizhou Prefecture City, you can start a five-kilometer trek along the Great Wall from Xingshan Gate, or head east to visit Longxing Temple and continue east to Jinshan to admire the group of pagodas.
.
👉 Day 2
4⃣️ Continue to explore the other side of Ziyang Street today. Still follow Huipu Road to Qinghefang, then turn north.
5⃣️ This route passes through Yingxianfang, Fengxianfang, and Wuzhenfang. Because the north end of the street has the former residence of Zhang Boduan, the founder of the Southern Sect of Taoism and the Ziyang Taoist Temple, the street is named 'Ziyang Street'.
6⃣️ Along this route, there are still many cultural attractions, including Fang Yiren medicine shop, the nation's first privately-run Lu Xun exhibition hall, the former site of Tongshuhe tea food shop, which is now the Taizhou-style 'hard qi' theme hall, and the ruins of Wufengfang.
7⃣️ There are noticeably fewer tourists on this stretch, so the prices of snacks are slightly cheaper, recommended is Li Ji's herbal paste under Shunzhengfang on Ximen Street.
8⃣️ Head north to Wuzhenfang, see the screen wall of Ziyang's hometown, and the street walk is complete. Turn back to Ximen Street and turn west, you can also visit the Drum Tower and Confucian Temple of Taizhou Prefecture City.
Ziyang Street in Taizhou is just too festive
Ziyang Street is located in the core urban area of Linhai City, covering an area of 92,500 square meters, with a total length of 1,080 meters. It was once selected as one of the top ten 'China's Historical and Cultural Famous Streets' in the fourth session, following Hangzhou's Qinghefang, it is the second ancient street in Zhejiang to receive this honor. It is a microcosm of the millennium-old city and a symbol of Linhai, a famous historical and cultural city with a thousand years of history.
On this quaint street, there is not only the dazzling night scene but also a wealth of cultural activities and special snacks that make people linger. If you come here, be sure not to miss this beautiful moment and capture this dreamlike scenery.

Taizhou Fucheng Cultural Tourism Zone Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Seaside
After touring Changyu Dongtian for about an hour, we headed to Linhai Taizhou Prefecture City. The city wall of Taizhou Prefecture is known as the 'Great Wall of the South of the Yangtze River' and was also a reference for the construction of the Ming Great Wall, with several sections built on the mountains. Ziyang Street is an old street, and the shops on the street are mainly for eating, with several popular shops having long queues.
A Different Journey by the Sea
A brief account of Linhai, a leisurely two-day and one-night tour of wandering and eating. ✌️
Getting up at six and leaving at seven-thirty, those people are not to be messed with. The scenery of Donghu in the south of the Yangtze River is stunningly beautiful, and the best part is that it's Monday today, so there are very few people. 🥰🥰
When I first arrived at the foot of the Lanship Men, I was intimidated by the hundred-step staircase, but with courage ✌️ and the spirit of 'since I'm here, I must go up', I had to climb the Great Wall of the South of the Yangtze River 👍. The journey from the 8th enemy tower to the 1st enemy tower, each segment offered a different view, marveling at the grandeur and majesty of the ancient relics. 🥰 It took 2 hours to come down, not very tiring, but it was too hot, and I was sweating profusely. 👀👀
After coming down from Chaotianmen, I revisited Ximen Street and Ziyang Street, tasted the herbal paste, sampled Du Ji's pancakes, and finally got to drink the long-anticipated Overlord Tea Ji. 🥳 The cold drinks and carbohydrates after exercise are truly a source of happiness. 😍
Taizhou, unveiling the underestimated secret of the Jiangnan region!
Taizhou Linhai is truly a treasure! It was once rated by 'National Geographic' as the most beautiful ancient city in China, and it's also a paradise for sticky rice delicacies. Once you go, you can't stop eating...
Promise me! You must visit Taizhou once in your lifetime❗❗
🚗Transportation: As a tourist city that's best experienced casually, I highly recommend driving or renting a car‼️ Of course, choosing high-speed rail plus taxi is also quite convenient.
🏨Accommodation: I chose a hotel in Linhai. The hotel offers great value for money! There are shopping malls nearby, and it's not far from Ziyang Street, highly recommended ‼️
✅Must-visit attractions 👣
▪ Linhai Jiangnan Great Wall 🎫60 yuan/person
It has the elegance of Badaling and the danger of Juyongguan. The Taizhou city wall starts from Lansheng Gate in the east and stretches to Jingyue Gate in the west, worth a visit!
⚠️Recommendation: The sky ladder at Lansheng Gate has scared many lazy people, but if you want to take it easy, you can start from the City God Temple. The uphill is less steep and more gentle, the downhill is easy, and you can pass by the best photo spot🎬
▪ Guoqing Temple Admission 🆓
Half Zen monastery, half landscape. Once you enter the temple, you feel very at ease. Recommended visiting time is about 45 minutes, take your time and walk slowly.
⚠️Note: Guoqing Temple closes around 4 pm, so plan your time wisely. The sightseeing car costs 2💰/person, and it's not far to Guoqing Temple, so it's recommended to walk there.
▪ Tiantai Mountain Waterfall 🎫60 yuan/person
A 20-minute drive from Guoqing Temple, you can see the huge waterfall from afar, quite spectacular! I think it's enough to climb to the Water Curtain Cave, but those with good physical strength can continue to the top!
▪ Xianju 🎫347/person
It was a spontaneous decision to go, and it was truly worth it!
⚠️Recommend taking the cable car up and down, it's more relaxing and time-saving~
After comprehensive analysis, I still recommend starting from the south to climb the mountain ‼️
Currently, the main browsing routes are: south up south down, south up north down, north up north down, north up south down
▪ Ziyang Street
A must-visit in Linhai, a microcosm of the ancient city of a thousand years, full of life and sticky rice paradise. There's a stall every ten steps, each offering a snack. If you're lucky, you might see impromptu performances, reminiscent of the Wuzhen Theatre Festival. There are also historical sites such as the former site of the People's Bank (P12) and the Zhu Ziqing Memorial Hall (P13). The night view of Ziyang Street is super beautiful!
✅About the food
Green grass paste, egg white lamb tail, black rice mochi, embedded cake, and local dishes (wheat shrimp, sour soup...) I especially recommend the green grass paste and black rice mochi 👍🏻
⚠️Don't come alone, you'll regret not having someone to take beautiful photos for you!

Come and feel the spring! Self-driving tour in Tiantai County, Linhai, and Shengzhou, Taizhou
6 days and 5 nights itinerary, self-driving tour, before departure, read a few introductions, have a general framework, and then mainly follow your heart and adjust in time.
D1: Depart from Shanghai in the morning, navigate directly to Guoqing Temple, and arrive around 2 pm.
The Guoqing Temple is neither the commercialized splendor nor the deserted decline, it is a temple that is seriously managed and used for Buddhist practice.
The Sui Pagoda a few minutes walk away is also worth seeing. Highly recommended!!
Stay overnight in Tiantai County, ate 'Tu Zao Tai', recommended!
D2: Tiantai Mountain Waterfall + Qiongtai Xian Valley.
Very confidently bought a joint ticket and took the recommended full course.
It takes heart to go up the mountain, knees to go down the mountain, and courage to cross the glass bridge (I, who am afraid of heights, closed my eyes tightly, held the railing with one hand, held my husband with the other hand, and walked past with all my courage).
It took a total of 6 hours, but the scenery along the way was good, with cliffs and beautiful mountains and rivers, recommended!
After going down the mountain, I went to Hehe Commercial Plaza, a newly built antique block, very grand, very deserted. Dinner was 'Tiantai Memory', recommended!
D3: Drive to Linhai.
Passed the Nanhuang Ancient Road recommended by the restaurant waiter, it is said to be full of red leaves, I went there specially, but the full mountain of red leaves has turned into fallen leaves.
Just take it as a hike, walked a small loop, it took nearly three hours.
Recommended for hiking enthusiasts, rich and frugal at will!
Stay overnight near Chonghe Gate in Linhai, dinner went to 'Jian Tiao Da Pai Dang' on Renmin Road Seafood Street, recommended!
D4: Another day of knee-wearing.
Out of the hotel, along Donghu to Lansheng Gate, climb 198 steps, up Taizhou City Wall. This place is known as the Great Wall of Jiangnan and Little Badaling, highly recommended!!
Walk the entire city wall to Xingshan Gate, enter Ziyang Street.
Walk along this ancient commercial street back to the hotel.
After rest, dinner was solved at a nearby snack bar, ate the famous wheat shrimp and ginger juice noodles, recommended!
D5: After a few days of walking, find a transit station on the way home to relax, and come to Shengzhou.
Take the national road, the money saved from buying the road is exchanged for local specialties from roadside stalls. Recommended!
Arrived in the afternoon at Chongren Ancient Town, which is recommended in every introduction about Shengzhou.
It's hard to say, it's not a traditional ancient town, it's a mixed block of ancient buildings, ruins, modern houses, and small western-style houses. It feels like this is a town that has not experienced one-size-fits-all control and has developed freely from ancient times to the present.
The highlight is finding the local delicacy rice cake dumplings, tasting the combination of rice cake and stinky tofu, delicious, highly recommended!!
Stay overnight in Shengzhou city, dinner ate the internet celebrity 'Fat Sister Tofu Bag', recommended!
D6: Shengzhou Chenghuang Temple, and the nearby Lushan Park, since you are here, take a look.
Yue Opera Museum, highly recommended!!
I heard that the Yue Opera Town next to the museum is now free of charge, so I went in for a walk, an antique commercial area, very attentive, very exquisite, very deserted.
If the admission fee is 70 yuan, it's not necessary. It's worth a look if it's free.
Then go home! Taizhou City Wall
The city walls of Taizhou Prefecture, also known as the Great Wall of the South
The city walls of Taizhou Prefecture, also referred to as the Great Wall of the South or the Badaling of the South, span over 6,000 meters in length, with more than 5,000 meters still existing today. Starting from the Lansheng Gate in the east, it winds along the ridge of Beigu Mountain to the Yanxia Pavilion, reaching directly to the steep cliffs along the eastern bank of the Ling River, extending to the western foothills of Jinshan Mountain. It follows the contours of the mountains, overlooking the great river, with the northern part being the most precipitous.
The city walls of Taizhou Prefecture were initially constructed during the Eastern Jin Dynasty, consisting of the wall body, city gates, gate towers, barbicans, moats, defensive bridges, watchtowers, horse faces, embrasures, and parapets. The city walls of Taizhou Prefecture are one of the exemplars of ancient Chinese urban construction, embodying both the function of military defense and the craftsmanship and aesthetics of ancient architecture.

Jinshan Pagoda Group and the intoxicating Donghu Qian Garden
5A Jinshan Pagoda Group Donghu Qian Garden
First,
Coming down from Beigushan, walking along Culture Road is not far from Ziyang Old Street, similar to the early imitation of the old street, a bit boring. I glanced at the Prefecture City Confucian Temple, a provincial protection. I directly came to the pedestrian street of Chicheng at the foot of Jinshan for lunch. This is a tourist distribution center. The 5A-level square is a must. The bright stalls and modern street restaurants are all eye-catching.
Of course, the most eye-catching are the Thousand Buddha Pagoda at the foot of the mountain and the Wenfeng Pagoda on the top of the mountain. The three pagodas were all built in the Tang Dynasty. The Thousand Buddha Pagoda is in Longxing Temple. The temple was destroyed during the Anti-Japanese War, but the pagoda survived and is now a national protection. The two Wenfeng Pagodas were rebuilt in the Qing Dynasty and are now provincial protections. The mountain is not high and easy to climb, but it seems to be of little significance.
Second,
Coming down from the mountain and heading straight to Donghu, I was a bit overjoyed. This seems to cleverly integrate the pavilions of Suzhou gardens with the lake and mountain scenery of West Lake. The lake is not big, but the density of attractions is very large, which is dazzling.
The "Lake Heart Pavilion" on the island in the lake was built in the Qing Dynasty. The pavilion has three floors, with eight flying eaves, high vases and flowing tiles, and the corners are dripping with green. The winding Nine-Curved Bridge was built by Qing Zhifu Liu Ao.
The "Qiaoyun Pavilion" in the center of the lake on the front lake moon dike was built in the Ming Dynasty. On the left side of Qiaoyun Pavilion, a Northern Song Dynasty Moon-watching Bridge spans the two banks, and the bridge is hollowed out with various flower and bird totems.
The "Qihua Pavilion" in the back lake was built in the Ming Dynasty. It has two floors. The yellow walls and purple eaves are reflected in the lake.
In fact, in the Song Dynasty, Donghu was already "flat waves a few acres in front of ten thousand peaks, a piece of Danqing can't be fully painted. The secluded pavilions and small bridges cross the green water, and the dense forests and tall bamboos lock the light smoke. The gorgeous silk strings and pipes chase the joyous land, and the snow, moon, wind and flowers are drunk in the sky..."
And in the Qing Dynasty, "Hangzhou has West Lake, Taizhou has Donghu, and the victory of Donghu is a small West Lake."
Third,
In the southeast corner of Donghu, there is also a large house Rongxing Hall, also called Qian Garden. It was built to commemorate the descendants of Qian Wang of Linhai and the governor of Taizhou Qian Xuan who expanded the Donghu Garden. Qian Wang, also known as Qian Lü (852-932), a native of Lin'an, was the king of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms of Wuyue. It is said that the richness of Suzhou and Hangzhou, "there is heaven above, and Suzhou and Hangzhou below", was laid during Qian Lü's rule. Tang Zhaozong gave him an iron ticket in the third year of Qianning (896), forgiving him for his nine deaths. A Qian Gong Temple was built in Lin'an during the Song Dynasty.
During the Southern Song Dynasty, a branch of the Qian family came to Linhai. There were as many as 9 people including Qian Xuan who knew the governor of Taizhou during the Song Dynasty. Qian Xuan's son Qian Jingzhen was the son-in-law of Song Renzong. In the fourth year of Shaoxing, Song Gaozong Zhao Gou gave the Grand Princess a house in Meidefang, Linhai, and personally inscribed the four characters "Home of Loyalty and Filial Piety". Among the famous people of the Qian family, including Qian Chen, Qian Miao, Qian Duanli, Qian Xiangzu, etc., they all lived in Linhai.
In addition to the "golden book iron ticket", what protects the Qian family from generation to generation is their "Qian Family Instructions". "Reading the classics and the roots are deep, looking at the history and the discussions are great. If you can write articles, you will have a lot of descriptions, and if you have morality, you will have a lot of blessings."
Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty also admired his family's way of educating children. During his southern tour, he gave the plaque "Qingfen Shishou".
Taizhou is really worth a visit
TravelLinhai Prefecture City, looking for Chinese red
Set a theme 'Finding the Chinese Red for the New Year'.
It was gloomy and raining, I arrived early in the morning at the Yingshan Gate of Taizhou Prefecture City. The square in front of Weng City was setting up a red New Year's charity event. The city gate was pasted with a big 'Xi', the streets and alleys were decorated with red ribbons, and most of the shops were decorated with traditional blessings. Inside the Yingshan Gate, at the foot of the towel mountain, the chanting of scriptures and Sanskrit sounds were heard. Following the sound, the horizontal layout of the mountain gate building was atmospheric, showing the style of the Tang Dynasty. The three words 'Longxing Temple' came into view. The temple space is expansive, the heaven and earth are harmonious, and it is where the heart belongs.
Longxing Temple: It was first built in the first year of Shenlong (705 AD), originally named 'Shenlong Temple'. It is now being rebuilt, and behind the Daxiong Treasure Hall is the Tang Dynasty Thousand Buddha Pagoda. Longxing Temple once promoted the Tiantai sect of Buddhism, and Master Jianzhen once lived here. The high monk Si Tuo of Longxing Temple also followed Master Jianzhen 'through six crossings, over twelve years'.
As the Jia Chen Dragon Year is approaching, I happened to encounter the ancient Shenlong Temple here, wishing good luck and blessings. 🧧
Ziyang Street: The street name is derived from Ziyang Zhenren Zhang Boudan, the first ancestor of the southern sect of Taoism, who realized the truth. The street is very long, spanning several streets from north to south. The scale and texture of the streets and alleys are preserved, most of them are shops in front and residences in the back, there are businesses, and there are also original residents left behind, full of life. The incoming shops are innovative and novel. The traditional shops have old tastes and old memories.
🌺The plum blossoms at the foot of the towel mountain are blooming.
