What ancient city? It's a small square with a wall... There's a Chen clank and a movie theater inside.
Dahao Ancient Town is a small place featuring fish balls. There are not many locals and attractions, but there are many small shops that make various Shantou fish balls in the whole area, many of which are of very good quality. Every December, a fish ball food festival is held in Dahao, which is very local. If you are interested in fish balls and want to eat the best and most diverse fish balls, it is worth visiting. In addition, cycling from Shantou is also a fitness and leisure game especially recommended by local cycling enthusiasts.
After visiting Nan'ao Island, it's still early. Take No. 162 directly on the island and get off at Xiyuan, and walk for 200 meters to arrive at Dahao Ancient City. No tickets, there are my children and casual old people in it. The ancient city is not big, but it is well preserved. There are two gates corresponding to each other. The city walls are thick, and the two houses inside are newly built, but those vigorous old trees tell the people the passing years.
Shantou, the last stop of the Chaozhou trip, feels less good than Chaozhou. The protection of the old city has not been effective. The construction of the new city is not like a special zone. Fortunately, there are delicious food to support. , To be honest, it's not as delicious as Nanao Island. The crabs on Nan'ao Island are full of intestines, and they caught me when they picked crabs, grandson, dare to catch me, boss, fried him for me, I ate my grandson!
