🎉Hello, everyone! Ready for a day trip to Tanxi Mountain with me? Today we'll explore the South Route, challenge ourselves on the thrilling glass bridge, and enjoy a fun-filled children's playground! Come join me in embracing nature! 🎈Itinerary: South Route -> Glass Bridge Plaza -> Children's Playground Morning: Exploring the South Route🌿 ✨Early in the morning, we'll set off from the hotel and walk into the South Route. The air here is so fresh! I feel so refreshed! The unique landforms and clear streams of the South Route are truly unforgettable. 📸Don't forget to check out the Cloud Ladder and the Welcoming Waterfall – the photos will be amazing! Riding the 100-meter sightseeing elevator, I was absolutely stunned by the view; the entire valley was laid out before me – it was breathtaking! 🚌While you can choose to take the sightseeing bus if you get tired, I still recommend walking. This allows you to fully immerse yourself in this lush green world and discover even more hidden beauty! Afternoon: Glass Bridge Challenge 🌉 💗At 3 PM, we arrived at the Glass Bridge Plaza. Wow, this transparent glass bridge spans the valley—it's so thrilling! Brave souls, come and try it! ☕️After crossing the glass bridge, we arrived at the "Mountain and Sea Wind Blows" cliffside café. The lime sparkling water here is so delicious, and paired with the stunning view, it's truly delightful! 🎢Around the café, there are attractions like the Star Cave Legend and the 1000-meter slide waiting for us to explore. Every attraction is so fun, we couldn't stop playing and fully enjoyed the adventure. Evening: Happy Time at the Children's Park 🎠 👶In the evening, we arrived at the children's park hidden in the mountains. The wooden facilities here are so unique, suitable not only for children but also for adults who can rediscover the joys of childhood! 😄Swings and seesaws—the children had a blast playing here. Hammocks and climbing walls were also favorites for them, both safe and fun, allowing parents to let their children play freely. 🍽️After playing, a small restaurant at the foot of the mountain offered delicious wood-fired chicken and reservoir fish, replenishing our energy and perfectly concluding the day's activities. Accommodation Recommendation 🌟 🏨In the evening, I recommend staying at the high-altitude hotel in Tanxi Mountain. The floor-to-ceiling window rooms with panoramic mountain views are truly amazing, making your vacation even more enjoyable. Imagine waking up in the morning and seeing a beautiful mountain view first thing—isn't that amazing? Okay, that's all for today's Tanxi Mountain day trip guide! I hope my guide helps you have a pleasant and unforgettable day at Tanxi Mountain! Try it out, and remember to like and save it! 💖
Title: "Who says Weihai = International Bathing Beach + Maotou Mountain + Torch Eighth Street? I spent 1680 yuan on a 2-day, 1-night trip, staying in a century-old fishing village with seaweed-roofed houses covered in wild roses, squatting at the pier at 5 a.m. to grab the first basket of live sea urchins, and grilling freshly caught scallops with seaweed under the deserted lighthouse—not a bargain, but spending 2000 yuan to experience the 'heartbeat of the Jiaodong Peninsula' that others couldn't even touch after reading a hundred travel guides!" Are you like this too? Searching for "Weihai tourism" brings up nothing but: "Torch Eighth Street photo shoots starting at 3 hours," "Maotou Mountain cliffside coffee 98 yuan/cup," "International Bathing Beach jet ski 260 yuan/10 minutes"... You close the page and silently check the weather forecast—it's not that you don't want to go, it's that you're afraid of being knocked unconscious on the beach by the "internet celebrity tax" the moment you hear the waves! The pain points are painfully obvious: ✅Want to see the sea? Huoju 8th Street is packed with people queuing for "back view photos," only to find themselves surrounded by tourists with selfie sticks in the background. The filters are set to "Santorini," but the reality is that three men in flip-flops are gnawing on grilled squid in the background. ✅ Want some fresh seafood? You pick out some prawns at the seafood market, only to be pulled into a "trendy seaside restaurant" where a plate of steamed crab costs 328 yuan. Upon opening it, you discover: the female crab has no roe, and the male crab is just an empty shell. ✅ Want to take amazing photos? The Maotoushan viewing platform is filled with the backs of heads holding phones. You stand on tiptoe for half an hour, only to get half a face, three sun hats, and the tail of a seagull flying by… Blind spots that send chills down your spine: ❌ Is Weihai really expensive? Wrong! The money-burning traps are the "photo traps"—you pay 128 yuan for a "lighthouse + seagull" photo, but miss the sight of fishing boats returning to port at Jingzitou in the early morning, their silver scales exploding like flowing diamonds in the sunrise. ❌ Is Maotoushan a must-see? Wrong! At the end of Beishan Road in Weihai city, there's a seaweed-roofed guesthouse called "Jingzi Fisherman's Lodge," costing 268 yuan per night. Wild roses cascade down the roof to the windowsills. It's a 5-minute walk to Xiaoshidao Wharf, where an old lady sells steamed sea urchin and egg for 5 yuan a bowl—so fresh you'll almost taste it but won't want to eat it! Misconceptions are Stealing Your Sea Experience: "Not going to Huoju 8th Street = a wasted trip to Weihai"—But at low tide, the Chucun Reef Beach, 3 kilometers west of Jingzitou, reveals a kilometer-long obsidian beach, teeming with sea urchins, anemones, and small sea hares. Fishermen say, "This beach is so remotely located, even beachcombing apps can't find its coordinates!" "Seafood is only worth it at restaurants"—But at 5 a.m., go out to sea with Captain Li's "Luweiyu 6633," buy a 30 yuan ticket, and personally shake the lively sea urchins, scallops, and small octopuses from the net. Back on shore, find a stall owner by the dock and have it cooked for 15 yuan—8 times cheaper than trendy restaurants, and the freshness is heaven-snatching! My actual 2-day, 1-night bill: 🚄 Round-trip high-speed rail (non-holidays): 420 yuan 🏨 Accommodation: 1 night in a seaweed-roofed house at Jingzi Fisherman's Lodge = 268 yuan 🍜 Food and drinks: Steamed sea urchin with egg + mackerel dumplings + seaweed pancakes + fig beer = 212 yuan 🚢 Transportation: Bus + shared bike + group boat trip to Chucun Reef Beach (4 people split the cost) = 190 yuan ✨ Special experiences: Beachcombing at Xiaoshidao Island, seaweed painting on Beishan Road, sitting alone at the Weihai Park Lighthouse at dusk = 0 yuan (completely free!) ✅ Total: 1680 yuan, with a balance of 320 yuan quietly lying in my Alipay account—not something I squeezed out, but money snatched back from "the sea through someone else's lens" and poured into the truly roaring waves in my own ears. The real sea in Weihai has no name on navigation apps. It's hidden away— You ask the old woman mending her net, "Grandma, which beach has the tide receding the cleanest?" She puts down her shuttle and gestures with her chin towards the western reefs: "When the sound of the tide softens, take off your shoes and step in—that icy, bone-chilling moment is the sea recognizing you as its child."
A perfect 4-day, 3-night trip to Gangneung, Seoul! Gangneung is a must-see. A day trip by KTX was no problem. I had tofu ice cream – so delicious I suspect they added some kind of advanced technology and extra styling tricks, haha! The cliffside cafe was incredibly photogenic. It was so popular that even early in the morning, all five of the customers were Chinese. Thanks to the lovely lady I met who took the photos for me (picture 1). I wonder if I can find anyone here. For shopping, I highly recommend Seongsu-dong. Arrive precisely at 11 am, especially on weekends, as the lines start to get incredibly long in the afternoon. I bought eight milk teas and RAIVE. Guess which items I bought in pictures 11 and 12? 🤔 The Korean retail economy is so strong that my money seems to be worth a lot. I also bought a pair of shoes. Even someone with low material desires can discover new things there. This time I stayed at PJ near Myeongdong, one stop away. The service was quite good, and there was hot water in the hallway, but the room soundproofing was terrible.
