After Typhoon "Maidem" passed, Zhanjiang

I discovered this coastal city is truly a treasure! It has the Military Culture Expo Park, a must-visit for military enthusiasts, and the designer guesthouse "Waiting for You" (Zhanjiang Jinsha Bay Branch), a super romantic seaside guesthouse with stunning Jinsha Bay views. You can also watch breathtaking sunsets at Happy Coast, all with great value for money~ 🏠 Highly recommended accommodation: Waiting for You Designer Guesthouse 📍 Building 20, Poly West Coast Garden, Guangzhou Bay Avenue This guesthouse really understands what girls want! We stayed in a duplex sea view room with floor-to-ceiling windows and a balcony, where you can watch the sunrise lying in bed 🌅. It’s a 5-minute walk to Jinsha Bay Beach, and sitting on the balcony at night enjoying the sea breeze is super relaxing~ The room even has a projector and a vanity table. The guesthouse manager enthusiastically recommended many local hidden gem restaurants! 🎯 Must-visit attractions: 1️⃣ Zhanjiang Military Culture Expo Park 📍 220 meters east of the intersection of Dongcheng West Road and Longwang Bay Road, Potou District ⏰ 8:30 AM - 5:30 PM (last entry at 4:30 PM) 💰 Ticket: 38 RMB Military fans can’t miss this! The outdoor exhibition features real tanks and aircraft, and the indoor museum details the history of the navy. It takes about 2 hours to tour. It’s best to visit after 3 PM for the best sunlight for photos and to avoid crowds~ 2️⃣ Overseas Chinese Town Happy Coast Recommended to go around 5 PM! The seaside boardwalk is perfect for watching the sunset, with golden sunlight shining on the sea like spilled orange marmalade 🍊. The park also has a Ferris wheel and a night market. We bought super fresh oysters, only 10 RMB for 5! 🍤 Food tips: ✅ "Yuebaihai Seafood Steamed Pot" near Jinsha Bay is a must-try! The freshly caught shrimp and crabs are still jumping when served. ✅ The guesthouse manager’s recommendation "Mingji Chicken Pot" is amazing, with a coconut milk soup base that’s super fresh and sweet. ✅ For late-night snacks, head to Baixing Village Food Street; spicy beef and fried ice cream are a perfect match. 🚗 Transportation tips: It takes about 20 minutes by taxi between attractions, and driving is even more convenient~ There is a large free parking lot at the entrance of the Military Expo Park. The guesthouse is only a 3-minute walk to Jinsha Bay bus stop, and bus route 2 goes directly to the city center.
