If you can't make it to Santorini, why not visit the Flower and Bird Island instead!

As soon as I set foot on this island, I was stunned by the beauty before me. It's no wonder it has been rated by National Geographic as the most romantic island! Transportation tips: 🚗 If you choose to drive, you can go directly to Shenjiawan Pier (there is a parking lot there) 🚢 It is recommended to book direct ferry tickets in advance, from Shenjiawan directly to Flower and Bird Island (transferring is both troublesome and time-consuming) 🎫 Ticket: An admission ticket is required to enter the island, costing 85 yuan per person 🌈 Travel tips: 🌟 Flower and Bird Island Coastal Road: This winding coastal road is flanked by mountains on one side and the sea on the other, with flowers planted on the mountain side, making it super photogenic (if you have the stamina, you can walk and take pictures on your way to the hotel after disembarking) 🌟 The White House: Known as China's 'Santororini', this place offers a combination of dining, accommodation, and entertainment. Stroll around and take plenty of photos. Don't miss the milk tea and coffee shop at the entrance of the village, buy a cup and use it as a prop while you drink, creating a perfect atmosphere 🌟 Nanao Beach: This is the largest beach on Flower and Bird Island. You can take a walk on the beach in the afternoon, but be careful as it is prone to high tides in the morning and evening. If you're lucky, you might even see the glowing sea. 🌟 The Lighthouse: This is the best spot to watch the sunset. The surrounding coastal road is also very beautiful. If you like hiking, you can walk there, though it's a bit far. If you're not into hiking, you can take an electric car from the entrance of the village, which costs 50 yuan for a round trip, and it's best to go around 4 pm. 🌟 Buddha's Hand Stone: This is the best spot to watch the sunrise. Unfortunately, the weather was bad when I visited, so I didn't see the sunrise, but there are white houses, colorful stone piers, lots of cacti, and even sheep on the small hillside, making it super picturesque for photos~ 🏡 Accommodation: There are many homestays on the island, and it's best to choose one where you can see the sea.
