[2025 Wulian Stay] Travel Guide for Bailuwan Resort (Updated Apr)

| A poetic place to live in autumn and winter. In autumn and winter, stepping into Rizhao Egret Bay Town is like walking into a quiet and deep ink painting. In the early morning, the mist lingers on the lake like a light veil, and the lake water is slightly cool in the cold air. Occasionally, a few egrets fly low over the water, breaking the calm picture and rippling, as if greeting the cold world softly. The reeds on the shore are covered with frost and rustle in the wind, as if singing the song of autumn and winter. Walking along the path covered with fallen leaves and morning frost, the trees on both sides have lost most of their green, but they have a different view. The golden ginkgo leaves fall like fans, piling up in a thick layer, and the sunlight shines through the gaps in the branches and leaves, mottled. The distant mountains are colorful but desolate in autumn and winter, contrasting with the tranquility of the town. The buildings in the town are warmer and heavier in autumn and winter. The warm yellow light from the house dispels the cold. In the courtyard next to the house, a few red maples are like fire, which is particularly eye-catching in a piece of plain, as if it is a passionate touch left by nature. At this time, you might as well walk into the coffee shop in the town, hold a cup of hot latte, sit by the window, and watch the world outside gradually be dyed by the warm sun. Or find a quiet corner and spend a lazy time with the fragrance of books. If it snows, it is the most beautiful time in the town. The world is white, and the houses, trees, and lakes are all gently covered by snow, like a fairy tale ice and snow kingdom. The autumn and winter of Rizhao Egret Bay Town, although less bright than spring and summer, has more tranquility, remoteness, and depth, allowing people to find spiritual comfort and return in this picture of the integration of nature and humanity.

There is not only the sea here, but also a super charming art town✨! Each building is unique and the production rate is very high!

| The most worthwhile art museum to visit. An art gallery located on the water Masterpieces by world-class architect Junya Ishigami An exhibition that tells the brief history of chocolate Immersive experience of the entire process from fruit to baking to finished product Sunset and building lights and shadows Mountains and water complement each other It's so beautiful that I can't describe it in words

This time when I came to Rizhao, many friends strongly recommended Bailuwan Town. After reading the guide, I decided to make it the first stop of my trip to Rizhao. The art gallery across the water and the small train across the lotus pond make it no exaggeration to say that the entire park is like a work of art standing on the bank of Chaohe River, making people feel relaxed and happy. I have carefully compiled a guide for playing the game, I recommend you save it!! In the Water Art Museum The "Underwater Art Museum" built in the middle of the lake is the work of world-renowned architect Jun'ya Ishigami. The entire building is covered with transparent floor-to-ceiling glass on both sides. When the afternoon sun shines on the lake, the entire interior will form a picture of interlaced light and shadow. Egret Bay Ranch A lonely tree stands quietly on the rolling grassy hill. Lying under the tree, with the breeze blowing and the shadows of the trees swaying, it is so comfortable. Cocoa Drinks Library I highly recommend friends who have plenty of time to come in and have a cup of freshly made chocolate drink. The entire library has a large collection of books, which is suitable for friends who are tired of shopping to rest here. Slow Monkey Dessert Lab The gelatos that are divided into different levels of chocolate made me have difficulty choosing. I have to sigh that this is really a paradise for chocolate lovers. Bring your loved ones and come here to enjoy chocolate freedom on the weekend~
