🏞️【Open Pit Mine Ecological Park】
This is a magical place known as Maoming's "Erhai"! The crystal-clear lake water reflects the surrounding rolling hills, creating a breathtakingly beautiful scene, like something out of a poem or painting. You can stroll leisurely along the lake, feel the breeze on your face, and admire the stunning blend of sunset glow and the beauty of the lake and mountains; or you can choose to cycle comfortably, enjoying the beauty of nature in a pleasant atmosphere. Cute little cabins dot the lakeside, as if stepping into a fairy tale world.

The park also has a unique Four Seasons Cultural and Creative Collection, gathering various creative handicrafts and special souvenirs; the Om Brewery offers delicious beer and a relaxed atmosphere, allowing you to relax and unwind.

Known as "Guangdong's Shangri-La", Tianma Mountain has an extremely pristine ecological environment and air so pure and fresh that it intoxicates. Here, you can traverse the vast alpine meadows as if you were in a green ocean. When the clouds and mist linger, the enchanting sea of clouds is dreamlike. The scenic area also has the Tianma Mountain Glass Bridge, which provides a thrilling and shocking experience with its transparent and sturdy structure; the Shenlu Waterfall cascades down like a silver chain, a sight to behold; the vast alpine grasslands are boundless and refreshing; and there are many other charming attractions such as the Yao village with ethnic characteristics, each worth exploring and savoring.

The area is rich in attractions: the beautiful seascape of Tongzi Bay is unforgettable, the protective forest adds a touch of green and tranquility, the film and television base showcases unique film and television cultural charm, Tangxia Li Street has a strong local flavor, and the Danjia Village lets you experience a different water life atmosphere.

Such a great deal! One of the must-visit destinations for the May Day trip
May Day Maoming Travel Guide: Dianbai Shuidong!!!
👍Highly recommended:
Victoria International Hotel (Maoming Dianbai Xinhulu Branch)
🗓Itinerary:
Maoming Dianbai District, China's No.1 Beach
🎫Admission is free, and there is a super large parking lot🅿️ where fees are charged based on duration. There are occasional blue tears in March every year, which are incredibly beautiful. It's perfect to go there in the summer afternoon around five or six o'clock when it's not too sunny! There are various beach supplies and toys in the scenic area, which are super convenient! If you need to take a shower after swimming, you can go to the seafood stalls to eat (they offer free hot water for showers when you eat), and the nearby kiosk also provides bathing services. The weather is hot, so travelers should pay attention to sun protection.
Maoming Dianbai District, Yanjingling
🎫Admission is free! 🅿️Parking is also free! It's about a 10-minute drive from the beach, and travelers can take a taxi or drive themselves. It's not far from the pier and you can also camp by the sea🏕️ with a sunset that creates a great atmosphere! There is also a plank road built along the coast, and climbing to the top of the mountain to the observation deck, you can see the adjacent Tongzi Bay with lots of fishing boats, which is absolutely stunning!!

In Maoming, the place with the highest film output
I went to Tongzi Bay with a few friends by taxi, and I suggest that foodies go together.
The first stop is Tongzi Bay | p2 (you can see a lot of fishing boats) If you walk further inside, there are some snacks (I didn't spend any money so I don't know the price or taste) and then you can see the sea~ It's windy, so foodies should wear more clothes.
The second stop is Yanjingling | p4-9 It takes more than ten minutes to walk from Tongzi Bay to Yanjingling according to the Apple map navigation (don't doubt the navigation, you really have to climb over a big hill to see the scenery of p4-5~)
The third stop is from the end of Yanjingling, take the sightseeing bus (about eight yuan per person) to | Romantic Coast | p11
Passing by | Maoming Overseas Chinese Town Qiaoguo Lady Real Scene Filming and Television City | p10 You can ask the sightseeing bus driver to stop for a photo~
Civil Affairs Bureau | p12 is on the left side of the heart-shaped swans at the Romantic Coast (there are grilled sausages for sale, very delicious and highly recommended!) The fourth stop is | China's First Beach Love | I transferred to another sightseeing bus at the Romantic Coast to go there. You need to make a reservation for the First Beach and then you can walk straight in to see the sunset p13-16, and the sunset p17-18 is incredibly beautiful. There are some snack shops around and inside the First Beach.
If foodies only want to go to the First Beach, you can take bus 201, 301, 309, or D106.

Maoming | Yanjingling | Escape the hustle and bustle of the city
Guangdong·Maoming's extensive coastline: Yanjingling_Tongzibay | You can check in at the mountain·sea | Sunrise·sunset🌇
🚗Opted for a self-driving day trip, to be precise, arrived at the destination at one o'clock in the afternoon, which is also when the sun is quite strong, so be sure to pay attention to sun protection and safety during your visit.
📍Personally, I think it's more convenient to park your car at Yanjingling first, if you want to hike, whether you're at Tongzibay or Yanjingling, they are connected.
🗺️Tongzibay Lighthouse
Navigate to the nearest parking lot to Tongzibay, our navigation took us through the village to the seaside and then continued along the coastal road until we reached the parking lot at the foot of the mountain with a 🅿️ parking fee of 10💵 per entry, 🎏 a reminder that there are no free parking lots nearby, and then there are some simple stalls, and then there are three ways to get to Yanjingling Beach, the actual distance is still a bit far.
🦯For hiking, you can find a trail a little past the parking lot to go up the mountain, although it's quite hot on the way up, it takes less than 10 minutes to see the lighthouse, and in the evening you can watch the sunset🌇 from the direction of the fishing boats, it's very cool on the top of the mountain, and then past the lighthouse you can see the beach, but you still need to slowly climb the mountain road to get there, so everyone still needs to pay attention to safety.
🌊At the end of the parking lot, next to the tomb, you can also climb along the rocks, make sure to stand firm and then slowly climb over, safety first.
🚶🏻Another path is to walk along the country road to the left of the fork in the road to Tongzibay, you need to look carefully at the specific junction, you can park on the roadside if there is space, and then you can only walk up the mountain, the mountain road is not easy to walk, and after reaching the platform, on the left you can go down the stairs to the beach, and on the right you can climb the mountain towards the lighthouse.
⛰️Yanjingling Beach
You can navigate directly to Yanjingling💵 parking lot🅿, about 15 minutes drive from Tongzibay, and then you can see the sea by walking in, compared to Tongzibay, the surrounding facilities are also more complete, walking inside you can see the sea, facing the sea is the east side where you can watch the sunrise🌅, and going up on the left side of the coast is 'China's No.1 Beach', and if you keep walking on the left, it's the direction towards Tongzibay.
🌥️Actually, after reading some comments from people who have been here saying that the environment and such are not good, I personally still feel that there is a worthwhile meaning to visit, after all, this place is still in a location that is waiting to be developed or planned, starting from the most original beginning, and also hoping that this place will get better and better, the environment is not bad, compared to the tourist areas there are highs and lows, and the environment also needs everyone to maintain.
📍Crossing mountains and ridges to see 'you', all the ends of the journey are worth it🌝

In Maoming! No need for filters to take pictures of this sea!
In Maoming! This sea is really amazing!
During the Dragon Boat Festival long weekend, it takes two hours to drive from Zhanjiang to Yanjingling in Maoming.
Today's only goal! Climb the lighthouse to see the sea.
I directly skipped the first beach in China in front.
After all, I have seen too many seas and ordinary beaches have no attraction.
I like the scenery that has not been developed, and the result is that the small road to the lighthouse is relatively primitive and a bit dangerous.
Very few tourists have gone, I didn't go, mainly because I am afraid of heights and fear of death.... Looking at the lighthouse from a distance.
The waves under the cliff rhythmically beat the rocks on the shore.
On one side is the intersection of the boundless blue sea and the pink romantic clouds, and on the other side is the spectacular sight of hundreds of boats returning home under the setting sun. It is the tranquility and satisfaction of watching the world's fireworks in poetry and distance.
tips: 1. Navigate to Yanjingling, don't park in the parking lot of Yanjingling Scenic Area guided by the navigation, find the local people's motorcycles or tricycles on the roadside (10💰), lead the way into the parking lot inside the scenic area (20💰), and then walk a few hundred meters to the stairs to the top, you can climb to the top in ten minutes!
2. The first beach in China is under the mountain, suitable for family fun. There is a viewing platform on the top of the mountain, but the scenery in the photo is outside the viewing platform. The cliff is dangerous and not suitable for children. Friends who go to play must pay attention to safety!
