    The most unique feature is the Gourd Cave, which isn't marked on the scenic area's navigation map. It's worth exploring, but it's not ideal for tall or large people, so remember to bring a headlamp and don't bring luggage.

    The Silu Islands are very beautiful and the photos are beyond the movies. Not only the cliffs of Donglu Island, but also many niche attractions can be visited on Beilu Island. The recommended accommodation is the Luxi B&B on the island.

    The combined ticket for Baishuiyang and Yuanyangxi is valid for two days, a 20-minute drive from both locations. We recommend entering the Yuanyangxi scenic area from the entrance with the bridge on the right. Starting from Laba Waterfall, we'll continue downhill to the Lianxintai-Lanshengtai route, where we'll return. This is where the scenic highlights are. After returning, we'll walk a short distance to the other route to see wild macaques before returning. We recommend visiting Baishuiyang in the afternoon; the water is cooler in the morning, and the 75 yuan unlimited surfing is fun! Trying to see all the attractions listed on the guide map for both scenic areas and enjoy the water in one day would be a stretch, so we recommend two days.

    On Yushan Island, the sightseeing bus only goes to Tianhu Scenic Area. If you want to tour the island, you have to rent a car or ride a bicycle. It seems like buying tickets on-site is cheaper. However, the scenery is quite nice. It's windy at the top of the mountain, and the view from the top is a seamless blend of sea and sky.

    There are plenty of places to watch the sunset, with plenty of accommodations and food options more expensive than in the county town, but it's more convenient for enjoying the scenery. Huazhu, Xiaohao, or Beiqi aren't far away. There are many areas prone to pitfalls, and with so many photography groups, the attractions are generally more daunting. Chartering a car from the beach will require an additional fee: Ctrip adds 100 yuan, while local drivers add 50 yuan. Drivers will recommend staying in the county town, but watching the sunrise is even further away, requiring early morning travel along winding mountain roads. Buses rarely reach scenic spots designed for filming, such as Beiqi S Bay, and only small cars can take smaller paths, minimizing the need for walking. The main locations for watching the sunset are above the bridge or on the beach below. Depending on the angle, the water ripples on the beach can be beautiful. Good weather is essential; avoid visiting if the weather is bad. Pay attention to the tides and choose a day when low tide coincides with sunrise and sunset for the beautiful, mirror-like mudflats.

    The Yangjia Creek Scenic Area features folk tales of famous figures such as Yang Wenguang and Zhu Xi, as well as She ethnic singing competitions and Mid-Autumn Festival stone-pulling ceremonies, allowing visitors to experience the rich local cultural atmosphere. Photography Tips For photographing Yangjia Creek, a 24-70mm or 24-105mm lens is recommended. To capture the Tyndall effect, choose the first rays of morning sun, when the ambient light is low. Using a smoke filter can enhance the "Jesus light" effect.

    不知道哇.不知道哇.

    Beiqi Tidal Flats: A Visual Feast of Sunset and Tidal Flats. This is a photographer's paradise. As the first rays of sunlight hit, the mudflats transform into a natural canvas, a dreamlike interplay of light and shadow. As the tide recedes, the mysterious tiger-skin texture of the beach contrasts beautifully with the distant mountains and fishing boats, creating a breathtaking scene with every step. We recommend waking up early to enjoy the wild joy of collecting shellfish on the mudflats, where every snap is a masterpiece! The only drawback: As the number of tourists increases, it's recommended to avoid peak hours. Overall, this is a must-see hidden gem in eastern Fujian!

    The paid scenic area is more beautiful and worth a visit. The beach is fine, and the coastal plank road offers a view of the sea and mountains. If you love mountain and sea views, don't miss it. Improvement suggestion: After charging an entrance fee, the foot bath is charged an additional 2 yuan, and the 2 yuan only gives you 30 seconds of foot bath time, which seems a bit unreasonable.

    During the National Day holiday, I entered the park at 11 a.m., and aside from the long queue for the train ride, all other attractions were excellent, with stunning scenery. I'd also like to offer some suggestions for signage that would indicate the approximate distance to the next attraction, making it easier for visitors, especially parents with children, to assess their physical fitness.
