Rent a Hanfu outfit (about 50 yuan/hour) and instantly become a Tang Dynasty beauty. When the light show starts at 7 PM, NPCs will invite you to play market games like touhu (pitch-pot) and riddles, very immersive~ The immersive drama "Guoxiu·Langya" is a must-watch (ticket 150 yuan), the special effects of clashing armor and horses are amazing, totally worth the ticket! - Evening: Xiangmin Old Chicken Stir-fry Night Snack Green pepper stir-fried free-range chicken served hot, the aroma fills the street! The chicken is firm and flavorful, paired with potstickers soaked in soup, delicious enough to lick your fingers~ Only 30 yuan per person to eat until full, finishing this means unlocking Linyi’s nightlife!

The 98 yuan ticket includes a homestay voucher, night tickets are cheaper, staying overnight is super cost-effective. - Afternoon: Wang Xizhi’s Former Residence (Lanshan District) The 30 yuan ticket is totally worth it! You can visit the ink-washing pool, calligraphy stone inscriptions, and get a free rubbing experience of the "Lantingji Xu." Wearing Hanfu and taking "scholar photos" by the pool creates a full atmosphere~ The cultural creative ice cream (15 yuan each) is exquisitely shaped, perfect for cute photos by the ink pool! - Evening: Chaoyang Sanhe Restaurant for Thick Soup A legendary breakfast with lines forming at 3 AM, also available as a late-night snack!

Bring your partner here to escape the heat, enjoy the mountain-water ancient city, and taste all the local specialties. Your wallet may get "slimmer," but your happiness will double~

Our visit to Linyi was great, but the weather didn’t cooperate very well - when looking for things to do indoors we decided on Ocean World. We loved our visit here and quite liked the aquarium and its shows. One thing we hadn’t done before, which we loved, was feeding some of the animals there including the sea turtles, the seals, the fish, and the birds. Although it cost a little extra we definitely thought it was worth it. So if you’re in 临沂 and need an indoor place to visit - we think it’s worth a visit. #indoorfun

Heard Linyi is bringing back water-splashing dance parties this summer?! Immediately rounded up my besties for a group trip! Take the high-speed rail directly to Linyi North Station, then a 15-minute taxi ride to Langya Ancient City—this summer, we’re going all out in Linyi! 【Daytime: Immersive Jianghu Adventure】 Step into the ancient city and feel like you’ve teleported into a wuxia drama—NPCs are everywhere, "acting" their roles!

#chinatravel 🌄 Nature & Scenery One of my favorite places was Mengshan Mountain (蒙山) — peaceful, green, and filled with Taoist culture. Hiking there was both refreshing and spiritual. You can also visit Yimeng Mountain, which holds a strong revolutionary history and stunning views. 🏛 History & Culture Did you know that Linyi is the hometown of the ancient Chinese military strategist Sun Tzu (The Art of War)? The Sun Tzu Cultural Park is worth a visit if you’re into Chinese philosophy and war history. 🌟 Final Thoughts Rating: ★★★★☆ (4.5/5) ✅ Peaceful nature, friendly locals, cultural depth ❗️Slightly limited English signage, but that’s part of the adventure #chinatravel #travelchina #china #travel #malaysiatochina #myitinerary #familytravel #chinatrip #shandong

Linyi is a beautiful city.

Recently went on a business trip to Luozhuang and chose this Holiday Inn Express. The experience was truly great, so I have to recommend it to everyone. 📍 Fantastic location Right at the intersection of Qinghe South Road and Binhe Expressway in Luozhuang District Not far from Linyi International Airport and the train station, just a short drive away! Plus, it's right by the Yi River, within walking distance to the Binhe Scenic Area Taking an evening stroll by the river with the cool breeze is so relaxing 😌 There are also shopping malls and supermarkets nearby, making shopping super convenient! 🛏️ Comfortable and clean rooms The rooms have a modern minimalist style, looking very fresh and tidy 👍🏻 The beds are super comfortable with clean, soft bedding for a great night's sleep The rooms are quite spacious, and I absolutely love the floor-to-ceiling windows 🪟 I stayed in a river-view room – just open the curtains to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Yi River, the view is amazing 😍 The bathroom has separate wet and dry areas, and the toiletries are of good quality Super thoughtful service ❤️ The staff here are all very friendly From check-in to check-out, their attitude is excellent and very patient! The breakfast here is also plentiful, and parking is very convenient 🅿️ Overall, very satisfied with the value for money, environment, and service in every aspect 👍🏻

The autumn breeze in Linyi gently brushes against your face, as if whispering stories about this city. This time, Xiao Shui and I decided to explore another side of Linyi and chose Lavande Hotel (Linyi People's Square MixC Branch) at 196 Yimeng Road as our accommodation. Not only does it boast an excellent location with all kinds of dining and entertainment options nearby, but it also brought us many delightful surprises. 🌟 A tranquil haven in the city center 🏠 Upon entering the lobby of Lavande Hotel, the unique lavender fragrance greets you, instantly putting you at ease. Despite being in the bustling city center, the rooms offer rare peace and privacy. The plush bed, in particular, feels like sleeping on a cloud, ensuring a restful night and leaving you refreshed and energized the next day. 🍽️ A feast for the taste buds 🍜 The area around the hotel offers a diverse range of dining options, from authentic Linyi snacks to international cuisine. Whether you're craving traditional Shandong dishes or a quick bite, there's something for everyone. We highly recommend the nearby Haidilao Hot Pot—gathering around the pot with Xiao Shui, savoring the steaming hot food, was a heartwarming experience. 🏞️ Nature and culture at your doorstep 🎨 Just a short walk from the hotel, you'll find the Han Dynasty Bamboo Slips Museum, where you can immerse yourself in Linyi's rich history. On sunny days, take a drive to Linyi People's Park or Shuiyun Xinlangya for beautiful natural scenery, perfect for leisurely strolls or photo opportunities. The riverside light show at night is particularly mesmerizing, with its dazzling display making it hard to leave. 🚗 Convenient transportation network 🛤️ For free-spirited travelers like us, Lavande Hotel's excellent transport links are a major plus. Whether heading to Linyi North Railway Station, the main train station, or Linyi Qiyang International Airport, there are multiple transportation options available. The hotel also offers thoughtful parking services, eliminating any worries about parking and making travel even more hassle-free. This trip to Linyi was made even more memorable thanks to Lavande Hotel. Next time we visit, we’ll definitely choose to stay here again to continue our romantic journey. ❤️

🏨【Hotel Address】: Rongsheng Senna Rongfu (Dolphin Center Building B), Dixi Road, Jiuqu Street, Hedong District, Linyi City, Shandong Province. Convenient location: Immersive experience within walking distance of the ancient city. The hotel is situated in the core business district of Langya Ancient City in Hedong District, Linyi City. It’s a 10-minute walk to the south gate of the ancient city and a 5-minute drive to experience the "blue bricks, black tiles, flying eaves, and dougong" of ancient architecture. In the early morning, avoid the crowds and capture close-ups of flowing Hanfu on the ancient city’s stone-paved roads. In the evening, as the lanterns light up, use the ancient city walls as a backdrop to capture hazy silhouettes illuminated by lanterns. No need for long journeys; you can capture the charm of the ancient city anytime, anywhere. 🌆【Interior Design】: The hotel features a creamy minimalist decor with a touch of elegance. Floor-to-ceiling windows offer panoramic views of the city. Relax on a soft zero-pressure bed, wrapped in a down duvet and custom neck pillow, feeling as if you’re floating on clouds. The smart control system allows you to adjust lighting and curtains with a simple voice command, making it perfect for lazy moments. At dusk, the blue hour lighting adds a romantic ambiance to the room. Standing by the window, with the city as your backdrop, every photo you take is Instagram-worthy. 🛏【Room Types/Layout】: The rooms are decorated in a luxurious and romantic style, featuring creamy minimalist decor with a touch of elegance. Equipped with floor-to-ceiling windows for night views, soft and comfortable bedding, and bathrooms with separate wet and dry areas. Some room types even have large bathtubs, making them ideal for family vacations, parent-child trips, or couples’ stays. 🚌【Transportation Tips】: For drivers: There are three parking lots around the ancient city (south gate, east gate, north gate). During peak seasons (holidays/weekends), parking spaces are usually full after 10:00 AM. It’s recommended to arrive before 9:00 AM or park at the hotel’s parking lot and walk about 10 minutes to the ancient city. Public transportation: Take K21 or K30 buses to "Langya Ancient City Station," then walk 3 minutes to the south gate. From the high-speed rail station, it’s about a 40-minute taxi ride. Using ride-hailing apps with fixed pricing is more cost-effective. 🏨【Check-in Experience】: Thoughtful service: The hotel offers smart self-check-in services. Staff are warm and attentive, providing free room upgrades for special guests, recommending local delicacies, and suggesting shortcuts. ⛺【Activities】: 1. "National Show: Langya" Performance • Stage Frame: Reserve VIP seats in advance, wear Wei-Jin style wide-sleeved robes (moon-white with bamboo embroidery), and raise a cup in the "Lanting Qu Shui" scene created by holographic projection. Let the flowing ink and light resonate with the patterns on your outfit. Photographers use telephoto lenses to capture your profile, blurring the audience in the background, leaving only you and the virtual Wang Xizhi "drinking together." • Backstage Frame: During intermissions, enter the backstage area and borrow actors’ Han Dynasty bronze crown accessories (requires prior communication). Pose with a sword in front of the props and weapons rack. Secondary photographers use wide-angle lenses to capture the "heroic spirit" of the scene, while primary photographers focus on the subtle details of the crown’s tassels swaying with your breath. 2. Intangible Cultural Heritage Workshops • New Year Painting Frame: At the woodblock New Year painting workshop, wear Ming-style stand-collar robes (indigo with golden cloud patterns), hold freshly printed "door god" New Year paintings, and let artisans guide you in making printing gestures. Photographers shoot from low angles to highlight the contrast between the red of the New Year painting and the indigo of your outfit, as well as the Langya grass-woven pouch at your waist. • Grass Weaving Frame: At the Langya grass weaving workshop, choose a natural-colored grass-woven hat paired with Song-style short jackets (off-white with light green). Sit on a bamboo mat filled with semi-finished grass weaving products, gently place freshly woven grass shoes on your lap, and capture the "pastoral poetry" of gathering herbs in the wild with backlit photography. 3. Langya Terrace • Sunrise Frame: Arrive at Langya Terrace at 4:30 AM, wearing Warring States-style curved robes (black with red edges). Wait for the sunrise by the "Sun Viewing Stone." As the first rays of sunlight dye the sea of clouds red, spread your arms to let the wide sleeves flutter. A drone captures the scene from 20 meters above, including you, the Qin bricks of the terrace base, and the distant Yi River, recreating the scene of "Qin Shi Huang visiting Langya" from the Records of the Grand Historian. • Starry Night Frame: During a full moon, change into modified Qing-Han women’s attire (crimson with gold embroidery and pearl cloud shoulders). Light a glass lamp in the octagonal pavilion of Langya Terrace. Photographers use slow shutter speeds to capture the reflection of pearls on the cloud shoulders as you spin, with the starry sky and the ancient city’s silhouette lights in the background, creating a fantastical night reminiscent of "Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio." 🍩【Restaurant Highlights】: In Linyi, "stir-fried chicken" isn’t just a dish; it’s a cultural code embedded in the DNA. Walking through the streets and alleys, you’ll often encounter restaurants with wooden signs reading "30-year-old stir-fried chicken shop." Iron pots bubble on coal stoves, with bright red soup enveloping chicken pieces, and the spicy aroma mixed with soy sauce wafting through door cracks, tantalizing your taste buds. Locals say, "If you come to Linyi and don’t eat stir-fried chicken, it’s like you haven’t been to Langya." Signature "Pancake Roll Everything": Freshly made corn pancakes, thin and translucent with a slight charred aroma. Tear off a piece of stir-fried chicken, scoop up some meat and sauce, and wrap it in the pancake. The sweetness of the pancake balances the spiciness, while the tender chicken, rich sauce, and chewy pancake create a symphony of flavors. Veteran diners often add a chopstick of green peppers from the stir-fried chicken, doubling the spiciness for a sweat-inducing thrill. 🏬【Nearby Attractions】: Wang Xizhi’s Former Residence: Ink Fragrance and Water Reflections The water in the Inkstone Washing Pool is a natural mirror. Wear Wei-Jin style wide-sleeved robes (light gray + dark green), sit on the stone steps by the pool, holding a half-scroll of "Lanting Preface" rubbings. Let your skirt touch the water, and photographers crouch low to capture the water’s reflection. The text on the rubbings, your profile, and the clouds in the pool blend into ripples, creating an artistic image of "wandering in ink." In the afternoon, wisteria flowers fall on the corridor bridge. Carry an inkstone and run across, letting petals stick to your hair. Secondary photographers capture dynamic shots, while primary photographers freeze the light spots leaking through the corridor columns—whether in motion or stillness, it’s all about the elegance of "the hometown of the Sage of Calligraphy."

【Xana Deluxe Hotel · Langya Ancient City Branch】 The hotel is located in the heart of the Langya Ancient City commercial district in Linyi's Hedong District. It's just a 10-minute walk to the south gate of the ancient city and a 5-minute drive to experience the "blue bricks, black tiles, and flying eaves" of this historical site. Start your morning by avoiding the crowds and capturing close-ups of flowing Hanfu on the ancient city's stone-paved streets.

This summer, I experienced an audiovisual feast and a soul cleansing that defied imagination at the Guimeng Scenic Area in Yimeng Mountain Tourist Area! If you also yearn to converse with history amid mountains and waters, challenge yourself under the starlight, and greet the sunrise above the clouds, then keep this note carefully—Guimeng Scenic Area is definitely worth a special trip! 🌄 A Must-See Peak Live Show: "Climbing Meng Mountain · Vast Heaven and Earth" The scenic area has pulled out all the stops! The newly created live performance "Climbing Meng Mountain · Vast Heaven and Earth" literally brings the stage into the magnificent peaks and waters of Meng Mountain! The entire show is like a "living cultural atlas of Meng Mountain," with four chapters that immerse you in a journey through a thousand years! 📍 Jiulongtan (Daytime) - "Laughing Proudly at Meng Mountain": An explosive opening! Witness "Linghu Chong" and "Ren Yingying" rowing on the emerald pool, performing "A Laugh from the Vast Sea"! Even more amazing, "Dongfang Bubai" flies through the air on wires, petals scattering everywhere, and the heroic spirit of the martial world fills the air! Martial arts fans will be ecstatic! (⏰ 7.26-10.19, closed Mondays, 9:30/10:30/11:30 AM; 1:30/2:40 PM) 📍 Jiulongtan (Night) - "Poetry, Wine, and Dragon Pool" (Highly Recommended!): This is my favorite show! Moonlight pours down, water mist drifts. "Li Bai" recites "Quiet Night Thoughts" alone by the pool, then dances with his sword! The moment the sword light cuts through the mist, three figures appear—bringing the poetic scene of "Raising a cup to invite the bright moon, we become three shadows" to life! When "Du Fu" arrives by boat, the two sing "Bring in the Wine" together, and the heroic spirit of "Climbing Meng Mountain · Vast Heaven and Earth" truly stirs your blood! (⏰ 7.26-9.21, closed Mondays, 8:30/9:30 PM) Bonus: During the day in the "Poetry, Wine, and Dragon Pool" themed space, you can also meet the "Li Bai" NPC, recite poetry, enjoy tea, and play chess with him—super fun! 📍 Baishoutai - "Crane and Deer Welcoming Longevity": A chapter full of celestial charm! The "Deer Child" holds immortal herbs, the "Crane Child" wields a jade fan, and the "Longevity Immortal" descends on the mist, leading children in graceful dances to bless all beings. They will tie blessing ribbons on visitors, perform the "Ten Thousand Blessings" ritual, and offer the beautiful wishes "Blessings as long as the Yi River, longevity as firm as Meng Mountain." Full of ceremony, perfect for bringing elders! (⏰ 7.26-10.19, closed Mondays, 9:30/10:30/11:30 AM; 1:30/2:40 PM) 📍 Guimengding - "Heaven and Earth Meng Mountain" (Grand Finale): The climax of the entire performance! At Guimengding, the second highest peak in Shandong, three sages—"Confucius," "Li Bai," and the "Longevity Star"—historically gather! Dancers in vermilion robes line up to pray, creating a grand and solemn scene. The three saints ascend the summit together, promoting culture, honoring the mountains and rivers, and praying for health and longevity, jointly wishing for "national peace and prosperity, and the eternal continuation of cultural heritage." This profound cultural inheritance and patriotic sentiment deeply move the heart! (⏰ 7.26-10.19, closed Mondays, 9:30/10:30/11:30 AM; 1:30/2:40 PM) 🌌 Night Climb of Meng Mountain: Chasing Stars and Light, Just for That Sea of Clouds Sunrise! Think the show ends there? The most thrilling part is yet to come! We chose to challenge a night climb of Meng Mountain! Walking by starlight: Departing at dawn, headlamps light the way, surrounded by the deep night of Meng Mountain. Passing the tranquil Jiulongtan, the steep Eagle’s Nest Peak, and the winding cliff plank road... every step upward is filled with unknown expectations and the romance of perseverance. A date with the sunrise: After hours of climbing, finally reaching the summit of Guimengding! Rest briefly, hold your breath, and wait for the dawn in the east. The shock above the sea of clouds: When the first golden light pierces the horizon, the rolling sea of clouds beneath is dyed golden red... all fatigue instantly turns into the joy of reaching the summit! This is nature’s most magnificent coronation for every brave soul who perseveres! At that moment, you truly understand what it means to "Climb Dong Mountain and see Lu as small"! 🎯 Travel Tips: Show schedule: The four chapters take place at different locations and times, so be sure to plan your route and timing in advance! Especially the night shows "Poetry, Wine, and Dragon Pool" and "Heaven and Earth Meng Mountain" are highlights. Night climb preparation: Always go with companions! Bring headlamps/flashlights, warm clothing (it’s windy and temperature varies greatly at the summit), plenty of water, and energy snacks. Wear comfortable, non-slip hiking shoes. Safety first! Family-friendly: The daytime NPC interactions (Li Bai, Confucius) are great for kids to experience and feel the charm of traditional culture during the visit. Transportation and Accommodation ♥: Self-driving or car rental is recommended as public transport to the scenic area is not very convenient. If you have enough time, it’s recommended to stay about 2 hours away in the city center. Linyi Ronghua Hotel (Train Station Wanxianghui Branch) in downtown Linyi is the top choice with great reputation. The quiet, sunny twin rooms with two 1.5-meter beds offer excellent value, easily accommodating two adults and two children! Be sure to combine your stay with visits to famous nearby attractions such as the Wang Xizhi Former Residence, the Bamboo Slips Museum of Yinquan Mountain Han Tomb, free night tours of the illuminated Lanshan New Langya, or the newly popular Langya Ancient City—this is a highly recommended itinerary!

vice is also incredibly thoughtful, making it simply the top choice for a trip to Linyi~ The hotel's parking lot is very large, so there's no need to worry about parking, and the EV charging stations are very convenient. Knowing we had children, they specially prepared cartoon bedding and toys, and even provided drinks and snacks that the kids loved. Our whole family was very surprised [StarEyes][StarEyes]. Let's talk about breakfast; it truly amazed us. There were desserts and pasta dishes that the kids loved, as well as handmade pancakes and Linyi San (a local soup) that we enjoyed. While replenishing energy, it also marked the start of a great day [Love][Love][Love] Mixc City commercial area is a 10-minute walk away, with bubble tea shops and trendy restaurants aplenty. Linyi's night view is also incredibly beautiful. I sincerely recommend everyone to visit Linyi and definitely stay at Linyi Hotel Huochezhan Mixc City Branch [Heart][Heart][Heart]

During the day, we followed the red footsteps, witnessing heroic imprints amidst the green mountains and clear waters. As night fell, a performance full of Yimeng characteristics was even more captivating—the high-pitched Yimeng folk tunes echoed in the theater, and the actors, with their simple performances, recreated the era of deep military-civilian unity. Tears in the corners of eyes intertwined with applause, becoming the most moving highlight of this trip. As dusk deepened, we arrived at Ronghua Hotel. As soon as we reached the entrance, the security guard enthusiastically greeted us, waving to guide the car smoothly into a parking spot, and thoughtfully reminded us, "Be careful with these steps." A simple word of caution dispelled most of our travel fatigue. Entering the lobby, the front desk lady, with a beaming smile, took our documents. Her movements were swift yet meticulous, and she spoke softly while verifying information. After completing check-in, she didn't forget to inform us, "The elevator is on your left, and local tea is prepared in your room for you to try." The warmth in her words was like the spring sun, comforting and pleasant. Pushing open the guest room door, a wave of warmth enveloped us. Soft light fell upon the clean bedding, and a vibrant green plant sat on the small table by the window. A card on the table, written with a brush, read "Wish you a pleasant journey," in elegant handwriting. The biggest surprise was a Yimeng customs picture album placed on the bedside table. Flipping through it, it was filled with local customs and traditions, allowing one to feel the pulse of this land even while resting. After a short rest, we moved to the hotel restaurant. What started as a casual try turned into an amazing culinary experience. The dishes served were full of Yimeng characteristics: the braised rabbit head was rich in savory sauce, leaving a lingering aroma after each bite; Mengshan stir-fried chicken, made with local free-range chickens and stir-fried with green and red peppers, had a bright color and firm, chewy meat; the most incredible dish was the Yimeng whole lamb soup, with its milky white broth. Sprinkled with a handful of cilantro, one sip was so fresh it felt like your eyebrows would fall off, and the warmth spread from your stomach all the way to your heart. The waiter explained that the ingredients were directly supplied by local farmers, fresh and authentic, no wonder every bite carried a rustic, homely flavor. Outside, the night was gentle; inside, warmth permeated. This trip to Yimeng was not only impactful with its red history and immersed in local customs, but also made even more perfect by the thoughtful service of Ronghua Hotel. It turns out that the best travel experience is, after witnessing magnificent landscapes, to be gently enveloped by the kindness in the details, in such a warm corner.
