Check this out! You won't believe it until you see Taizhou for yourself.

Taizhou, Zhejiang Province: A seriously underrated travel destination Hey everyone, I just got back from Taizhou, and I was absolutely blown away! This hidden gem in Zhejiang Province is overflowing with delicious food, breathtaking scenery, and tons of fun things to see, do, and photograph📸. I'm sharing this super detailed Taizhou travel guide with you now, so be sure to like and save it~ 📍Location and Transportation Taizhou is located on the central coast of Zhejiang Province and is super easy to get to. Whether you're flying, taking the high-speed train, or driving, you can get there with ease✈️. Taizhou Luqiao Airport has quite a few routes, and you can take a taxi directly to the city center after landing. If you're taking the high-speed train, Taizhou has multiple stations, such as Taizhou Station and Wenling Station, so you can choose the one that best suits your itinerary. If you're driving, the Shenyang–Haikou Expressway runs through Taizhou, offering stunning scenery along the way, just like a road trip🚗. 🎫Attraction Booking Guide Most attractions in Taizhou don't require reservations and you can just show up. However, for popular scenic spots like Shenxianju, it's recommended to book tickets in advance on the official "Shenxianju Tourism" WeChat official account or various travel apps during peak season to save time queuing🎟️. Choose your travel date and time slot, and then simply scan the QR code at the entrance when you arrive. Super convenient! While admission to Guoqing Temple is free, you can also make a reservation in advance on the "Taizhou Smart Tourism" mini-program when there are large crowds to avoid delays. 🌟Must-Do Activities 🌊Shitang Xiaoruo Village: This is China's version of "Cinque Terre," with the entire village made up of macaron-colored houses. Every photo you take here is Instagram-worthy, perfect for showing off on social media. Strolling along the coastline, feeling the gentle sea breeze, is incredibly relaxing. There are also many unique shops where you can find interesting souvenirs🎁. 🏞️Shenxianju: You must come and experience the "Number One Blessed Land"! With its strange peaks, rocks, canyons, and deep valleys, it feels like stepping into a fantasy world. As you ascend slowly by cable car, the scenery transforms from lush forests to mist-shrouded peaks, truly a breathtaking experience. Walking on the Ruyi Bridge at the summit, with a sheer drop below and a sea of clouds surrounding you, is both thrilling and fun. You'll feel like a martial arts hero flying on a sword🧙‍♂️. 🛕Guoqing Temple: This ancient temple has a history of over 1,400 years. Here, there's no commercial hustle and bustle, only a peaceful and serene atmosphere. The temple's architecture is simple and elegant, with towering ancient trees providing shade. As you wander through the grounds, you'll feel the charm of this ancient temple, and your heart will find tranquility. Don't forget to check out the ancient plum tree from the Sui Dynasty. If you're lucky, you might even catch it in full bloom, and its elegant fragrance will intoxicate you. 🍜Food Recommendations Taizhou is a paradise for food lovers, with every bite a delight! 1. Nian Gao (Sticky Rice Cake): A carb lover's dream! Soft and glutinous rice cake wrapped around your favorite fillings, such as fried dough sticks, shredded potatoes, braised pork, and more. Topped with a spoonful of savory sauce, it's incredibly satisfying and you'll fall in love with it after just one bite. 2. Ginger Soup Noodles: A Taizhou specialty, the rich ginger soup is paired with handmade noodles, seafood, and a poached egg. It's both heartwarming and comforting, especially on a cold winter day🥣. 3. Shi Bing Tong (Food Crepe): Similar to a large spring roll, a thin crepe is filled with bean sprouts, vermicelli noodles, shrimp, eggs, and other ingredients, then pan-fried until golden brown and crispy. It's so delicious you won't be able to stop. 📸Photo Spots 1. Shitang Coastal Greenway: With the sea as your backdrop, every shot is effortlessly beautiful. 2. Ruyi Bridge at Shenxianju: The unique shape of the bridge, combined with the sea of clouds, makes for stunning photos. 3. Sui Pagoda at Guoqing Temple: The combination of the ancient temple and pagoda creates a strong sense of history. 💡Things to Note 1. Taizhou has a humid climate, so be sure to check the weather forecast and bring an umbrella. 2. The roads in Shitang are quite winding, so be careful if you're driving. Parking can also be difficult, so consider taking the local sightseeing bus. 3. Guoqing Temple is a sacred Buddhist site, so dress respectfully and maintain a quiet demeanor. Taizhou is truly a hidden gem, so plan your trip now and embark on a spontaneous adventure! I'll be waiting in the comments to see your Taizhou travel stories💖.
