It's a 10-minute boat ride from Wugongzhi Wharf to Putuoshan Island. The island is quite large, and a day is only enough time to visit a portion of the attractions. It's very crowded and has many incense burners, but the environment is beautiful. There are shuttle buses and cable cars available. However, it can be quite tiring after a day there.

I booked two middle cabin packages with sachets on Ctrip. When I picked up the tickets, I was given one middle cabin and one upper cabin. I had to sit separately. The upper cabin ticket I took was more expensive than the middle cabin, but the seats were indeed green trains. The middle cabin sleeper and middle cabin seat tickets are the same, and the middle cabin seats are high-speed rail seats. The cruise company has a special ticket sales app, which is available on WeChat. You can buy economical and affordable tickets for consecutive seats a week in advance. The middle cabin can save 70 yuan per ticket. I bought two sachets for 140 yuan. Does anyone need them? 9.9 free shipping.

I decided to bring my children here when I got off Putuo and there was still some time before my flight. The half-price discount was very cost-effective. The venue is not big but the movement line is very reasonable. I played in it for an entire afternoon and the children were reluctant to leave until it closed. It was great.

The sea water is really clear and blue. You can sit in the B&B and listen to the sound of the waves and watch the sea all day. I recommend this B&B that can only be reached by climbing a mountain. Although the journey is a bit difficult, the scenery is invincible and the cost performance is very high. You must go to the uninhabited village once
