Zelda-like islands that are unbelievably beautiful!

Are you still worried about not being able to find a niche and gorgeous travel destination? My friends, head straight to the Siju Islands in Xiapu, Fujian! Here, you will not only find Zelda-like cliff meadows, but also azure seas and dreamy fishing villages. It is definitely the idyllic paradise of your dreams! 🏝 Island Overview The Siju Islands consist of 17 islands, 16 of which are uninhabited. The main islands to visit are Dongju Island, Xiju Island, Beiju Island, Nanju Island, and Hongju Island. Only Beiju Island offers accommodation. There are only two shuttle boats to the Siju Islands per day, and they may be suspended in special circumstances, so be sure to plan your time before traveling. 🎈 Must-Visit Islands 1. Dongju Island: The "Zelda of the Human World," with a 90° vertical cliff plunging straight into the deep sea, while the top of the cliff is covered with rolling green meadows. There are also the bizarre rocks "Lion Peak" and "Emperor's Hat." Here, you can almost see rock sheep jumping in the green fields. Any shot you take will look like a scene from a movie, and aerial photography is even more amazing. 2. Hongju Island (Bird Island): From May to August every year, tens of thousands of seagulls circle the island, which is a habitat for migratory birds from Siberia. Currently, it is not possible to land on the island due to ecological protection, but it is still amazing to take a speedboat around the island and watch the seagulls soar. 3. Nanju Island: It has a 1-meter-thick pebble beach. Walking on it barefoot is like experiencing a natural "acupressure board." There are also karst cave wonders and clear shallows. Remember to stack stones here and make a wish. It's romantic and makes for great photos. 4. Beiju Island: The only main island with accommodation, it has stunning orange-like sunsets, military relics, and quaint stone houses. If you're lucky, you can also chase blue tears at night, and watch the first ray of sunshine over the East China Sea in the early morning, which is full of the atmosphere of a fishing village. 🍜 Food Recommendations The island has a rich variety of fresh seafood, including crabs, shrimp, shellfish, and fish. It is recommended to go to Lao Beiju Special Stir-Fry, which is a family-style kitchen with fresh ingredients that are freshly caught from the island. Be sure to order the mussel soup, which has no fishy smell at all and is incredibly delicious. The goose barnacles are wild, so you can also try them for a taste of freshness. 🏠 Accommodation Options 1. Island Owner's Homestay: It has its own island shuttle boat. You can book boat information by booking a room with the island owner before boarding the island, which is super convenient. The chef has worked as a Chinese head chef in the UK for 20 years, and the food is super delicious. 2. Cape of Good Hope Homestay: A newly built homestay with a convenient location, it is within walking distance of the disembarkation point. The rooms are spacious and modern, and there is also an elevator, bar, and nightclub, allowing you to enjoy the hustle and bustle in nature, which is a unique experience. 🚗 Transportation Guide 1.
